Well, it"s back round to that day of the week again and the serious value tonight would appear to be on PokerStars. The x2 promotion ends tonight with what should be some amazing value.
Sunday Warm-Up (Guaranteed $1m prizepool) - $200 + $15 starts at 5:45pm
Sunday 100k (Guaranteed $200k prizepool) - $10 + $1 starts at 8:30pm
Sunday Million (Guaranteed $2m prizepool) - $200 + $15 starts at 9:30pm
So, where"s everyone planning on donking their chips off today ?
-
The Warm Up for me.....
Just logged in to register, and multi-tabled 4 $60 STTs while I was there..... and had 1st, 1st, 2nd, and 3rd.... so am freerolling the Warm Up, and on a nice little high!! Bring it on.........
Good luck to all for tonight, wherever you choose to play.
-
Just starting a Thunder Satellite to the £40k on William Hills. If I don"t make it I might play the £100k on "Stars.
-
no added value in the Warm Up - with over 5000 runners it has exceeded the $1M guarantee.
The 100k always reaches 20000+ runners so the added value won"t be felt there either.
It just leaves the Million with a $2M guarantee - wonder if that"ll get 10000 players?!
-
Tournaments? pah! Who needs them? I"m currently on the cash Razz tables on Full Tilt although I might stay on this site and play their omaha/hold"em split tourney in about 40 minutes. Otherwise, I"ll be grinding away on the cash tables on Partypoker
-
grrrr - had a guy identified as real loose/passive fish - limping in from all positions with anything that looked nice, then folding to raises, or folding to small bets if missed flop..... easy money player...
....having got myself into a poor short stack position through a mixture of bad luck and bad play, I found 44 on the button after the fish had limped UTG. I had 11 big blinds, and he had just over 12...... i shoved and he snap called with JTo.......... of course he won the race and I was out. Can"t believe he limped UTG with JTo, then called all his chips to my all in, particularly as I hadn"t played anything for over 30 hands!!
Oh well, on to the daily 50k next... ;) might even try the 100k crapshoot again having made 41st last week.
sighhhhhhhhhh
-
100k on stars for me starting @ 8.30 pm
Probably a couple of low freezeouts on blonde as well..
-
l thought it was only live fish that made those plays AMRN ???
-
Go on then, going to try the 100K on "Stars for the first time......

oh well, just looked at my diary for tomorrow - nothing early...... couldnt resist the Sunday Million - prize pool around $2.2M and rising fast..... hopefully gonna be real late night.
Could be interesting if i go deep in the 100k and 50k as well :)
-
gone in 100k early yet again aj v kj ffs - love/hate that tourney. I will cash 1 day.
GL AMRN triple cash
-
Made the break... weeeeeeeeeeeee
3460
-
7k at break in 100k, but out of WU (44 vs AJ) and out of 50k (AKs v 99).
I guess I"ll be happy to have donked out of those when I collect my share of the $2.8M in the big one :)
-
Out just before break, in 13914th place as I ran my pocket 3"s into a serial raisers pocket Ace"s........
-
16.7k in 100k at first break.
Can"t believe over 13,000 in Sunday Million. Prizepool of $2.7m. Wow.

registration just closed - 1481 entries, prizepool of $2,836,200, with $297,801 for 1st place...... and after 18 minutes i"m still in with above average stack!! only another 12 hours to go.
-
good luck.. im grinding away in the 100k...
-
And I"ve managed to donk my chips away in the 100k . Finished about 10500ish.
Hate this tournament.
-
you have to get lucky early on for sure, but its a good tourney for the amount of $ in it, and how much you could
possibly
win.. ::) ::)
-
not good tonight - out of 100k in 4000th place - 400 off the bubble. AKs v KK - all in preflop. all out by the river.
-
Was getting low in million, but just trebled up with AA vs AQ vs AK.
Sitting on 20k. 4500 of 14181 starters already gone in just 75mins, ITS CARNAGE!!! ::)
-
ave stack in 100k
and Sunday MIllion
Donked out of everything else
-
well i obviously don"t learn from my mistakes..... just exited the Million whilst holding average stack.... AK on the button... standard raise, and BB defended with a little re-raise..... he was massive stack and table captain, and I assumed he was testing my "steal"..... so I shoved and regretted it when he showed his KK.
Second tourney tonight where I"ve been all in preflop with AK v KK and lost.
Good luck to those left in
-
cashed in 100k but out. Cant complain. Was in about 10 races won most then lost AK to QQ and AK to 66
In SM and chipped up
One time!
-
Gordon just took a horrible beat - K 10 in BB.... flop K hi..... all goes in on flop and turn.... other guy has 44........ and the river..... 4!

Unlucky fella.
Oh well consolation for me. Just made cash in $50k.
Well i say $50k but prizepool is actually $140k.
Come on!!!
p.s. Dam 33rd of 1404. ::)
-
Where"d you guys end up last night?
-
first level cash.
Ran very well early
Ran very badly late
-
Played in the $750,000 guarantee on FullTilt, finished 75th for about $1200. Once you are that deep into a tourney, all IFS and BUTS, BUT a couple of consecutive good hands can catapult you into serious $$, sadly they weren"t forthcoming. $147000 for 1st place!
Lost a huge pot of around 120000 chips when my UTG raise of ah kh, was reraised
by the BB with :as: 9c >:(, got outflopped and crippled otherwise would have been sitting comfortably in top 20places.
Once again, "Oh well there"s always next Sunday.."
