                                                                                                                                    Hi all

It's that time of year again! I will be at the WSOP from the first day, 28th May, for the usual package of Holdem and Mixed game events, and then returning, for just the $10,000 Main Event, from 5th July. All events are included in the package.

 I will be selling the package, which includes the $10,000 Main Event, at 1.04, to cover flight and hotel. I am looking to sell up to 60%. I foresee absolutely no problems with that large sale, in terms of my motivation. It is a large schedule!

Schedule plan

Exact planning for WSOP events becomes basically impossible given the density of the schedule, and all the possible re-entries. It is therefore inevitable that a good number of events, and a good number of bullets, are missed. Therefore, I have drawn up an initial
potential trip schedule of $152,600, of which we will cap the buy in at $115,000. The Main Event is added, making a total package of $125,000. I will feel able to enter events late, which is unlikely to, but may include, day two buy-ins to the $10,000 events (excluding the Main Event). There are 8 $10,000 championship events. The selection of events to make up the total buy-in will of course be sensible. If we start badly, 1,2, or 3 $10,000 events will be dropped, to meet the max buy in without it being dense with $10,000 events.

Extra smaller holdem events with unknown starting days

From Thurs 30th May- (4 starting flights)- $1,000 Mystery Millions, total of 4 entries, for $4,000
From Thurs 6th June- (4 starting flights)- $300 Gladiators of Poker, total of 8 entries, for $2,400

Potential total is $152,600

For that initial schedule, the total buy-in is capped at $115,000.

I am then guaranteed to play the $10,000 Main Event, starting flight 1C, on Saturday 5th July.

This brings the total value of the package to $125,000.

I am selling at 1.04, and so prices are:

0.5%- $650
1%- $1,300
2%- $2,700
5%- $6,500
10%- $13,000

No need to send money now. It must be sent by Thursday, 23rd May, to guarantee piece.


Please note:

- The way we will do exchange rates is to use the GBP to USD rate on the day you send, and the USD to GBP rate on whichever day I accrue GBP funds back. This may be a mix of selling at spot rate in Vegas, transferring back from the Paris cage with a small fee, etc. Initial package will be paid out shortly after my return to UK on 19th June, and, if possible, along the way, from 28th May to 18th June.

- If we fall short of the total buy in, unused entries will, of course, be refunded at 1.04 rate

- The schedule may be subject to small changes. Principally, they have not mentioned an online schedule yet, and so a small number of the small buy-ins may be added to the potential schedule (with the same capped total buy-in)

- Whilst all  events may be entered late, they will be at the earliest avaliability. The only event that I may enter late, not as a result of a previous event, is the opening event, the $5k Champions Reunion, No Limit Holdem. (because of flight to Vegas)

- I will happily buy late into any event, till the latest possible entry. This is unlikely to, but may, include a day two entry to a $10,000 championship event.

                                                    

So, sorry about the shorter updates last couple of days. Felt right to keep the absolute full focus.

So, our downfall from chip peak effectively came from running into Kings twice, with AQ and AJ respectively.

The second, to Ben Heath, I think I am fine with. The first is in the category of,  I would do the same again, but am not fully convinced.

At 80k BB and 7 handed, UTG raises to 200k from 1.35m (17 bigs).

Folded round to my small blind, where I have , and have him well covered.

Here are my thoughts

- Most crucially, I don't know who it is. American,  about 45. I would put him somewhere around average.

- He has 1.35m, but actually when asked by Heath, before he folded, and said '1.2 or 1.3.' There are two different elements to this. Firstly, it is significant that he doesn't know his stack. Secondly,  if he thinks he has 15 or 16 bigs, I am actually playing against whatever my perception is of his 15-16bb range,  rather than the 17bb he does have

- What is the chance that the reality is that his choice to raise, and not go all in, means he is always massive? AA, KK, QQ? It's definitely possible.  However,  what is inconsistent with this is his large sizing to 200k. You would think it more likely that someone who did want to go for value with the absolute top of range, would do so with the min sizing.

I think, especially with the inconsistent larger sizing,  that it all added up to being random enough,  that it was more likely the case that this sizing was all of his hands (I.e. that he had no shoves), or at least part of a random group of hands that would just put in a raise to 200k


When I saw the Kings, I did think,  have I just walked into an obvious trap here? But, maybe not.

Anyway, no big regrets.  On the flight back,  with WiFi, now

Thanks again guys

Thanks so much guys

Sorry forgot to update the board!

I am, sadly, OUT.

Got 3m at 100kBB. Raise AcJs to 200k from HJ. Ben heath makes it 525k button. Don't love it. But this has to be right. He's 3betfolded vs two in last 3 hours. I think my image will be relatively good vs him. I think he can give me the illusion of fold equity up to 650k, and therefore, whilst not at all definite, it fits well with being a cheaper 3bet-to fold.

I move effectively all in.  He's all in. Call. He has black Kings

 Not totally sure about either hand, but I think I've just run AQ and AJ into Kings twice in probable cooler spots.

Cashed in 73rd for $60,800

Thanks for everything guys. Semi rushing to airport
