$1500 WSOP Event 48 - PLO8

[Chipaccrual]

OPR stats aren"t really that relevant due to the limited sample size (100 over 3 years), though I have been speaking to Dave H and he has explained that my stats aren"t perhaps as reassuring verifiable as they should be for this kind of staking event.

I have reconsidered my position and will sell a small amount at spot for those who do wish to have a flutter (including people who have already backed me.)

Apologies if this thread has been a bit amateur, I have obviously never sought staking before...

I"ll take 10% at spot

Fair enough, can you post the 35kcash games graph then?

[jayteejack]

If any left I"ll take 5% at spot. Good luck us

[Riddled]

Ok, given the change in stake structure I am going to cap the action there because I obviously want as much of myself as possible.

jayteejack - 5% ($75)
chipaccrual - 10% ($150)
PokerRoyalFlush9 - 10% ($150)

s400ter (I"l keep 5% reserved but can discuss any deal in Vegas )

Will pm closer to the time for the cash (stars transfer is easiest, but will give bank details if needed)

Other than that I will start a new thread at the time for some live updates,

Thanks all.

Can I get bank details please

Hi All,

You can track my progress via poker news, chip counts on the live reporting.

Kicks off in about 3 hours and will post update as and when I can.

[DodgyEnd (Tom APAT.be)]

good luck! I will be following your progress...

[dwh103]

Me and Perry both having issues accessing APAT. He has bust, just before level 5. Will update later.

[Riddled]

It was a day marred with ill luck. Was unable to access the chip count ap or apat site for updates.

Never got above starting stack.

Critical hand was nut boat running into quads in a hand I don"t play if I"m not in the SB.

At 25/50

I have JJ76 in SB, CO limps Button limps, I complete and BB checks.

Board J 10 8 - I check, BB checks, CO makes it 175, button calls, I call, BB passes
Turn   2       - I check, CO checks, Button bets 625, I call, CO passes
River   8       - I check, Button bets 1400 - given that there is no low the button is completely polarised so I just call and lose to quad .

That left me with about 2k that I nursed for a couple of hours before doubling up a short stack with A278ds against shorties A2QJ which flops me nearly dead with a QJ10 flop.

With my 4bb stack I then managed to double up getting it in with A27K against a bag of spanners.

Killing blow was opening CO with A245ds and getting iso"d by new guy to the table. I call it off against A2QQ who flops a set leaving me with only back door outs.

All in all a pretty brutal first WSOP event by all accounts, made all the worse by the fact there was one person at my table who I"m not 100% sure new the rules.

Sorry I couldn"t report back with better news.

there was one person at my table who I"m not 100% sure new the rules.

Pretty unlucky to go all that way and get drawn on the same table as Dave.
