2015 WSOP! (4 Viewers)

First few hours of $1/$2 at the Venetian I just grinded to tip the dealers :-( Played a ton of marginal hands, won a bunch, lost a bunch... By the time I met the PCFers, I was even... Later on things got a little better and ended up booking a +$900 night... Stack was still growing here:

Wow, am I glad I got my seat assignment last night. Landed at 7:30, got to hotel around 8:15, grabbed a bite to eat, got my seat and went back to the hotel.

Hope to see some of you guys today -- if you're looking for me early this morning, I'll be at the Pavilion at table 327 in seat 8 in the Yellow section. Good luck fellow PCFers!
 
Stayed a total of 25 seconds in the will call line this morning! :) Only a 2 hour sleep to get to the Rio this early though... Now a MONSTER breakfast!

What is the starting stack? starting blind level?

After you cash, I'll take a bottle of Forged Oak ;)

Good Luck and fucking color me green
 
Lost a big hand... Flopped a set, c-bet on a ddd board guy moved all in for 2/3 pot... Called he had overpair with a weak flush draw, he got there... 6.5K at the break...

Tighten up buddy. You can do it!!!
 
I just read this entire thread. I'm excited as all hell and I'm not even playing (anywhere this weekend).

I might have to leave my wife so I can play in it next year :)
 
Good Luck. Rest up on your break (or play at the cash tables :) ) Hope to hear about your stack recovery soon!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
 
Good luck Paulo! You've already crushed on line times (Liz told me to tell you "bite me" after we stood hammered in line for well over an hour past midnight to avoid lines, and you cruised through it in seconds). See you at the final table on Tuesday!

Tell me that wouldn't blow up PCF traffic: You, me, Nitzilla, And Snooptodd on the final table, battling it out for the $20 last longer.

Tell Liz she's only thinking about the positives in my case... Tell her I had to 'try' to sleep for jus a couple of hours and got to Rio 6:40am... Had to wait until 10am feeling like crap!! :-)

See y guys at the final table!

* Got cough making a move (I never learn!) and I'm down to 11K, blinds 200/400...

Can't win without making a couple moves here and there. Be patient, plenty of time for you.

That was one of the topics Chaos brought up at our meet. The Colossus is a bit short stacked. There's time, but not deep stack time. In 5A there might be more shoving as bullets are plentiful for those willing to keep popping of $500 rounds, so hopefully he can take advantage to the looser players by picking just the right spots.
 
Out after 1st break. Played well for 2 hours and 45 minutes, played two hands really badly in 10 minutes. Details aren't important, definitely could have avoided both spots. Actually had a pretty good time, though. Fast structure but it's gotta be with 20k players.
