European Deep Stack Champs Here I Come!!!
« on: January 07, 2008, 01:37:28 AM »
Managed to win a seat to the European Deep Stack Champs, next month, on Blue Square tonight.

My mouth is salivating at the thought of 50,000 starting chips and a 1 hour clock.

Do you think they will have a 75/150 and 150/300 level?  ;)


p.s. At same time managed 43rd of 2825 in $500k warm up on Stars. Now I gotta try and sleep.  ::)

Congrats on both! If you don"t mind me asking - How many hours did it take to get down to where you finished in the $500k Sunday Warm Up?

Thanks guys.

Took about 6 and a half hours to get this deep, so not that bad with a 5.45pm Sunday evening start.

The event is at The Green Joker Poker Club in Drogheda, Ireland, 3-10th Feb. (€1500 Main Event)

I"ve checked and they have a 75/150 and a (150/300, 50 ante) levels!!!!

Come on!!!  ;D

Well played fella.  Great result.

First hand in Ireland, you have KK, you re-raise an EP raiser, he re-raises you all-in.  What do you do?  What do you do?  Do you feel lucky?

Lol, nice one, thank guys.

I"m betting we still lose some players during the first 2 levels, even with a starting stack of 50k and blinds of 25/50, 50/100.  ::)

Jeez just imagine 1,000 BB to start with.  Wonder what the standard raise will be, 30xBB?  lmao

Why break the habit of a lifetime, eh?

I"ve calculated that I can sleep until level 3 of day 3 and still only need a double up to get back to average stack.  ;)
