Good luck teeks. Didn't realise you were going so soon.

Hope you rip plenty of new ones.

Looking forward to the updates as always.

Are we winning yet?

Held up in immigration when he was found in possession of a never ending stream of hundred dollars bills. Every time you count them, there is one more. He's been upgraded in his suite at the Rio but he's now warming up for Penn and Teller.

Well he definitely fooled Thomas Exchange Global.

Good luck TK

15,000 starting chips, 40 minute clock, blinds start 50-100, and there are 73 hopeful entrants.

This is a re-entry, but we are on a 1 bullet affair.

[Karabiner]

Looking forward to my morning coffee with added gratuitous Vegas, and the latest installment of The Anteeks Roadshow already.

Hoping for a long drawn out squeeze tomorrow and many more to follow.

Above starting stack after very first hand. It's all downhill from here.

In the blinds we see a free flop with......

 

Flop..........

 

I bet and get 2 callers, and fully aware this is a very wet flop, but the 8 pairs on the turn and we get no further action.

[tikay]

OK, time to concentrate, so gonna put the ippy away for now, and update at next break, or when I depart, whichever comes first.

Got me a Starby, a stack of chips, now I just need to play well, & get a bit of fun good.

All good.

Bloody Nora, 2 bustouts on my table inside the first 20 minutes.

Kid to my immediate right got a gift double up and is now getting well busy with his double stack.

[tikay]

Am sandwiched between Billy Big Stack and this chap.

End of level 3, first break, plenty of action, zero traction.

14,500, (from 15,000), going back to 150-300, with 141 entrants so far.

7 players have busted on my table already, my my, these boys play fast and loose.

Not suffered from nerves, which was the worry, and got involved a fair bit.

Had quad aces but not much action.

Flopped the nuts with 9-10-J-Q three way, and eventually it all went in on the river still 3 way, one guy folded, and the other guy had the same hand as me, so a nice bit of profit there.

Lost a lumpy chunk soon after when I button raised with.....

  

Flop was......

 

My man bet into me, probably got a random King.

Turn......

 

He bets again, I call again with my 3 draws.

River was.......

 

He bets again. I don't think he has too many boats here, if some more paint had appeared I may have folded, but I was reasonably confident I was good. I was wrong, he had K-5. Never saw the rest of his hand, he was far end of the table.

Think I have to call there, he had been very active, and I think he has a bare King more often than not.

[tikay]

Jermore busted, rather unluckily, and his seat is now occupied by Pete Charalambous.

GL Teeks, be good to get a decent score early doors

Wow, you do worry about some strange things.
