Somehow or other I managed to win an entry to the $2700+$300 Main Event ... the story is told in my blog and on the Blonde Updates.
Had the rules been different, I might even have won two entries...
http://pokerdb.thehendonmob.com/player.php?a=r&n=210781I"m pretty sure I"m not good value in a field that will include a lot of people more accustomed to the buy in level. James Dempsey, Sam Trickett, Devilfish, Andrew Feldman, Marcel Luske, Rob Yong and more besides. But there will be a healthy number of satellite winners as well and stranger things have happened...
http://tinyurl.com/7z36xeaI will be focussing my efforts on the Main Event and although I hope to play the "Win the Button" tourney on the Wednesday night I plan to be fresh and ready for Day 1a on Thursday.
The plan is to "get hands and get paid" early on. It"s a 30k stack and an hour clock. I made 52nd of 910 in the last DTD £500 with this structure going out when I ran KK into AA for a serious stack.
So, I"m selling 20% at 1:1
1% = $30 = £19 approx. Convert back at the same rate regardless of what the actual rate is at time of either conversion seems fair?
Obviously I"m playing regardless of staking but selling a small % to cover some of the incidentals of being there and shares the joy if I run deep and into the money.
Max 5% to any one staker please. I"m guessing that"s not going to be an issue
