I structured the event using the same structure as the seniors event (since most of us are over 50). I made the blind levels 30 min instead of 60, but added 10k to the starting stacks (30k instead of 20k). Blinds start at 100/100/100. Event should last between 10-12 hours.

Time and location?

This coming weekend at my house.

10-12 hours makes it tough for me unless your kicking off at 8am...sounds like a great time.

Hope there's a live update thread for this.

Hope there's a live update thread for this.

I'd follow 100%

 

[krafticus]

I can post updates, but with 4 tables, I can’t really live stream.

I’m excited that I’ll be able to get my high denomination chips (25k and 100k) chips in play. 990,000 chips in play

10am

How many seats left? I'm 60/40 right now, but don't hold one for me just yet.

 

[Klobberer]

PM your address so I can narrow down the timing.

Saturday, March 8 I’m co-hosting WSOP satellite $1k entry event. 33 runners with 1st getting a $1k buy in and $1500 travel money. Stacks are ready. No rebuys, no bounties. Should be a good game.

To all the PCFers attending the WSOP event; please be prepared for a cash game to break out after you bust out of the tournament

@Highli99 said this competition was beneath him, and got scared .. or something else like that.

Not going to happen. He's going to flip the first hand and take down the whole thing just like at @MegaTon44 's

So is there a cash game?

Haha I am the sucker in your big tournament fields. It’s really hard to fold that much, but a few of the players have the ability.

Actually, my issue is my wife’s family is hosting a surprise 90th birthday for her great uncle at the restaurant/funeral home knows as The Peppermill. From 1:30 to 4:00 pm.

This is what handcuffs me this weekend. But I’d definitely come in the evening if there is a cash game rolling.

Ironically I think I am actually going to play a wsop event this year so would have been a nice way to satellite in.

Oh, I know you had obligations, but it just sounded funnier the way I framed it up earlier. As for the cash game, I'll send texts out later in the day to give you guys a go/no-go on that. I know Chuck's player pool (5-6 players) aren't cash players. I assume some might be poker-ed out. Not sure about the 5-6 from Brian's group either. I mean, I know I'd be in ....

 

[Highli99]

Sounds good. Get the kinks out this year and next year let’s do a ME satty

ME satellite would be hard with this crew. You'd have to do a multi-month points event, or find enough players to pony up a $500-$1000 buy-in for a single event. I think at best, you'd get 10 players, but with my crew, more like 5 total.

You could do a 4-6 month series with a $150/pp entry and get maybe 20 people, but that's a stretch too, since I already have my monthly game, and almost 1/2 of the other players come from other games which are on the weeks I'd most likely want to host this too.

Is there a list I can sign up for in the future? 1hr 45 is doable...

Oh god, is that place (Peppermill) still open???? Smh.

 

[krafticus]

Been a hectic morning. On level 7, 6 players out. I had a lucky double up to get back above starting stack… AK > QQ with a K on the river

 

[krafticus]

Final table. @MikesDad, @PhilLaFond and @vtspecv going for the win. I busted in 11th out of 33, 2 shy of the final table equity share

 

[krafticus]

Big pots now.

 

[krafticus]

Big MF chip in play..

 

[krafticus]

@MikesDad ends the game with the trip to Vegas

 

[kirchhausen]

Awesome congrats Dennis!

 

[krafticus]

For the first time in a long time, I actually had to use the Waitlist for my monthly game. 36 confirmed players. Might add another, as I am sure to get at least 1-2 drop the day of.

Time to knock out a wall and add an extra table.
