It's time again for another live donkament at Red Shores Racetrack & casino.

This time it's a $330 MTT with T8000 starting stack and 300 runners.

Played a satellite for the event and bubbled it like a champ. A player who won the satellite offered to sell me their seat for $250 so run good already.

Since the place doesn't have a big poker room, they empty out their simulcast (horse racing) room and fill it with 10 poker tables. So 3 flights of 100 players. Each plays down to 20. Then the 60 remaining return on Sunday to play for the win.

30 minute levels. The blinds roll back to 200/400 on Sunday which is excellent. Here's the structure which is pretty decent.

25/50
50/100
100/200
100/200 - 25
150/300 - 25
200/400 - 25
300/600 - 25
400/800 - 50
500/1000 - 50
600/1200 - 75
800/1600 - 75
1000/2000 - 100
1500/3000 - 100
2000/4000 - 200

With it being a MTT with 3 flights, players can register for each of the qualifying flights and take which ever stack they chose to Sunday, should they make it. There will be a quite a few people firing more than one bullet. Not me, however.

Last time I played one of these mid stakes MTTs here, I played the first flight thinking people would be a bit more spewey knowing they could fire another bullet. This time I chose the Saturday evening session for scheduling purposes as I work on Friday and am golfing Saturday morning with the father in law.

I've just recovered from an awful flu that lasted one day (all day Thursday) and I don't think I've slept this evening (Friday evening). It should be interesting to see how alert I am come poker time. Anyhow, I'm pretty high functioning on little sleep.

Official rules can be found here.

Pics to come and thanks in advance for anyone who sweats. $23,000 up top. Let's do this...after some golf.
 
Lovely day for a golf.

Random prize at the golf tournament. It's a cookie jar. Bizarre concept for a cookie jar. Does your company have promotional cookie jar? Didn't think so.

Man, do I miss golf... It's super expensive here and almost nobody plays it, and I have no desire to play with people I don't know. Gl in the tourney! Will be watching.
 
Of course there ponies tonight. Do you think a track makes up for not having a hotel attached to the casino?

25 and 100 are minty.

I raised a few limpers from the hijak w ATo. Flop QQJ. My cbet gets called. My turn (5) bet gets thru.
 
Big 3 way all in on he flop. JJ v 77 v the wheel. One player I thought was a threat had 77 so guess he wasn't much of a threat at all. 96 runners.
