Ovalman are you going to play in The Bigger $11 at 7pm on stars? I am in sunday storm also

By:
Oval how did you get on in th freeroll last night on stars? I cashed in mine with about $3
|
|
By:
I cashed as well not too much.
In storm as well 90 odd thousand runners. Will be at least 100 thousand after later reg. |
|
By:
Game is capped at 150,000 Nick which may just fill. I haven't played a hand, everyone at my table is gambling like mad, hope they keep it up, I'll gladly settle for 2nd.
I'm not playing the "bigger" game, I emptied my bankroll on Stars for XMas and am starting to rebuild again (stupid bankrolling but I need the money). I've never cashed in the Sunday Storm in 5 attempts, I usually get donked to a bad beat. The good thing is the structure that allows for good play so I'm confident it will pay in the long run. I was one of the first out of my freeroll (2004 with 1,000 runners.) I played badly myself shoving 55 on a 346 flop while my opponent flopped trips. Only a 1500 starting stack so I felt I had to gamble. Edit, just lost TT v KK to a short stacker who was all in every hand. Down to 4k |

Not played on stars in at least 6 months but reading this thread has tempted me to play the storm. GL guys

By:
2 hours late reg Wing, my table has settled down a little, I'm up to 5750 chips - folded QQ on a K88 board my opponent claims he had TT but he raised in SB and he's played even tighter than me. I think he'd AA or KKK TBF.

I'm out of the big one i pushed with pkt 9s in BB while the Button was trying to steal with AK o now i'm in The Bigger $11 .Gl

I dont play on stars JSTPLYN
But signed in to see the game you were on about. I played 3 tourneys $1 rebuy $22 F/O $55 rebuy all have been through late registration. Am still playing the $55 without a rebuy and 75/101/907 and out the other two Hated every millisecond of playing on stars. All in or fold in all three tourneys. Even when i win 2 hands back to back, i only seem to have 5 bb's left in the next 2 mins. |
|
By:
That said ... $10m seems tempting to play though. Not sure i like the idea of playing through the night vs 80,000 people
|
|
By:
I'm still OK in the Storm at 2nd break, 8.5k in chips, most of the crazies have been KO'd but I never got any of their chips.
Anyone else in this? I never try and satellite into bigger games, it's hard enough winning one without having to play 2. |
|
By:
I'm still in. Got off to a bad start but have got back to 5k at the break.
I always find the steps system is the best way to get into the Sunday biggies. |

By:
Out now, bad play on my part. GL Ovalman
|

By:
Thanks Wing, I still have 1 crazy at my table. He lost to a bad beat and went down to 4k and just kept pushing every hand regardless - he now has 54k. Maybe that's the way to play. I have 12k now.
I use HEM and my PFR is 1% in 100, I haven't had a need to raise (or a premium) everyone else has done it for me. The standard in this is abysmal, I'm not complaining but the inevitable bad beat will happen. |
|
By:
Im 8 of 22,
15K payout for winner. But still hate it! |
|
By:
That's me gone, my first raise Q9s ep and was flat called by JJ. needless to say I shoved. Stupid but a frustrating lack of reasonable hands.
|
|
By:
sorry flop was 9 high.

still in the storm just
|

By:
I check raised. If I'd have normal raised the flop I'd have got away from it but I expected my opponent to bet the flop so I though check raising would take the pot down. I never thought about my call to his reraise, it was automatic and big mistake. It was on a new table as well so an even bigger mistake, it seemed a tight table and I wanted to control it.
I keep saying to myself I won't make the same mistakes but I still do. |

I probably have not given it enough time - the look and feel just puts me off. All three tournies I was in yesterday - there were just 2 moves "All-in or fold" and im not joking. I finished 16th of 906 in a $55 rebuy and picked up $480 for it, with $15K up top. I went out with JJ vs KJ vs AK all three of us all in pre. KJ shoved 180K, I reshoved JJ for 320K and AK called 308K. board came: QQ8-T-A so totally dominated KJ wins the hand :) but IM NOT complaining in the slightest that i lost the hand or got KO'd one hand later as i did suck out with A9 vs AK about 20 places earlier. However it seriously was the most retarded online poker night as even with 320K and in third place, I still only had 12 bb's and that was about the first or second time in the tourney I had as much as 12 bb's!! JSTPLYN - i have replied to you on msn, but I recon u signed off by then. |

I invested $1 in a satelite for a $11 satelite whith 1000 seats GT for the 10M game..
I got my seat. what I find odd is that the sat is at at 18.45 . I expect 25000 runners + .. The MAIN event is at 19.30 ! However there is 3 hours of late registration. it's good to dream.. |
