It"s been 2 years so Vegas is now on the horizon again and have decided to take the plunge.
When I started this stake it was due to run to 01/12/13, any profit used for Christmas etc, this is my normal thing I withdraw all cash from poker sites and restart in January with a fresh deposit.
Dates for Vegas are from 06/11/13 to 15/11/13 thus leaving only 2 weeks to finish the stake off.
The current roll on Tilt stands at $2250 and I would like to offer the two options below, I will withdraw $2045 leaving $200 in just to play a few games over the next few days, tbh not feeling the love for online at the minute and if I have little on there it will force me to take a month or 2 off, this will help to refocus when I start again in the new year, will still take the last $200 seriously and hopefully get a bink or two.
Option 1:
Brian $1000
Phil $200
Ger. $200
Leigh. $200.
Dave. $100
Stuart. $100
Adrian $100
Steve. $100
Apat. $45.( this includes Apats 1% from previous and this withdrawal).
Can transfer via Stars or to bank, would need Leighs, Adrain"s and Steves details, the rest I have details for just let me know preferred method.
I could also pay out in $$$ in Vegas to Ger, Ste and Stuart.
Option 2 :
When I go to Vegas my main thing will be poker, I am not keen on table games but will be having one or two nights away from poker, need a few pai gow lessons as this seems to be the game of choice.
Below is the schedule I intend on doing, It may be a bit ambitious and does depend on morale and how I am feeling but I think I will be playing at least 5 of the 7 days.
08/11/13 Binnions 2pm $100
09/11/13 C palace 2pm. $ 82.50 (Apat) (2 day)
10/11/13 Venetian ds 12pm. $460 (dependant whether make day 2 of Apat).(2 day)
11/11/13 Aria. 1pm $150 (poss 1 reentry)and/or
11/11/13 C Palace. 7pm $140.
12/11/13 Bellagio 2pm $130 (poss 1 reentry)and/or
12/11/13 Aria. 7pm $150
13/11/13 C Palace. 12pm $140 (poss 1 reentry)and/or
13/11/13 stratosphere. 6pm $195 ( heartland tour event)
14/11/13 Wynn 12pm $150 (poss 1 reentry)and or
14/11/13 Aria 7pm $150.
The above = $1847.50 not including reentries, will only reenter if coolered early, initial thoughts are play the afternoon game at wherever and if bust mid game play the evening game at other venue listed, or the same game at the same venue if feeling lazy, if I have to reenter the first mtt, it will be unlikely I will play the evening game. There is $152.50 left from the $2k starting stake, this will be used for taxis between events, again will record everything down.
There are a couple of 2 day events in there and depending upon making Day 2 of either of those this will have a knock on effect on subsequent tournaments
The likelihood is I will not play the entire schedule due to tiredness morale and one or 2 nights/days away from the poker.
I will keep it all updated via blog or on this thread, percentages will be the same as initial stake.
I have offered Carl a small stake, he asked when I first proposed I was going to Vegas this will be taken from my 50%.
My record in Vegas last time was played 7 mtts, cashed in 4, including a chop in an Aria comp for $1800ish, obviously a tiny sample and variance might bite me on the backside and brick the lot, which to be honest is the most likely scenario as is the case in most mtts, but I thought we may as well go out with a bang rather than lose a load in a drab fashion on Full Tilt.
If you can let me know as soon as possible as I can open it up but will give you guys the first opportunity.
I will keep buy in funds separate from general spending and if we return with anything will redistribute on return.
In a nutshell $2k worth of mtts in a week, sod Christmas, didn"t want anything anyway.
Any questions just fire away.
