Re: WCOOP 6max PLO low-content thread
 

c'mon, 12 hours?

no way

Re: WCOOP 6max PLO low-content thread
 

wtf

no really who does this

Re: WCOOP 6max PLO low-content thread
 

i'm in. just won a big pot with AAAx

Re: WCOOP 6max PLO low-content thread
 

I'm in down maybe 200 chips. To me tournaments are like having a job, you can't leave when you feel like it and they tell when you can go to the bathroom.

is your job being a preschool student?

Re: WCOOP 6max PLO low-content thread
 

I don't have a job, so any amount of authority exerted upon me brings me back to feeling like a preschool student.

Re: WCOOP 6max PLO low-content thread
 

yeah, isn't this a great lifestyle?

Re: WCOOP 6max PLO low-content thread
 

5 card draw PL took 14.5 hours with only 857 players (PLO has 1800)

Re: WCOOP 6max PLO low-content thread
 

this would be way more fun if i knew all your screennames.

Re: WCOOP 6max PLO low-content thread
 

oh, and ps -- i started drinking already.

Re: WCOOP 6max PLO low-content thread
 

the sick thing about 12 hours is that plo-6 is probably the event that will get the fastest eliminations; yesterday nlhe-6 was 17 and 5cd was 14.5.

It's not that bad, if you play that long you win something, most people will be out in a couple hours

Re: WCOOP 6max PLO low-content thread
 

It is, and these tournaments just sucker me in, what with their ridiculously bad play and their winner-take-all machismo payoff.

Re: WCOOP 6max PLO low-content thread
 

Wow, didn't occur to me that it would take that long for a PLO tournament. Although, I guess if I get deep, I won't mind.

if i play 12 hours and get 8th that's worse then my earn in a ringe game.

you make $250/table hour?

It's not like you're forced to only play the tournament, if anything it gives you motivation to play a long cash session.

Re: WCOOP 6max PLO low-content thread
 

ringe games, for the record, are a popular form of horseshoes played in renaissance fairs.

Re: WCOOP 6max PLO low-content thread
 

lol beat me to it.

Re: WCOOP 6max PLO low-content thread
 

Very nice thinly veiled brag but that means nothing in the tourney world. You win 6-max PLO tourney you're like one of the best ever!

i have alot of trouble playing multiple games at once, and PLO MTT and PLO ring games play really differently.. so if i'm playing one tournament i want to play well then i'm not playing ring games at all.

Re: WCOOP 6max PLO low-content thread
 

Prince, were you the guy playing cash games at the WSOP who had like the racing-visor glasses?

Re: WCOOP 6max PLO low-content thread
 

ahh no, I despise those people. I was however at the WSOP playing cash games.

Re: WCOOP 6max PLO low-content thread
 

okay i can stop whining, i'm out... i c/r w/ top set after the unlikely draw hit on the turn.

Re: WCOOP 6max PLO low-content thread
 

wow you must not be very good at PLO to go out so quickly

Re: WCOOP 6max PLO low-content thread
 

i have 930 in chips after making what could generously be described as a hero call.

I also started playing a $55 NL and a $11 triple draw. God knows why. Once I start playing one Stars tournament I feel I have to see what else is going on.

Re: WCOOP 6max PLO low-content thread
 

I'm just playing the PLO and a FPP satellite. I did bring my laptop into the living room so I could watch football though.

Re: WCOOP 6max PLO low-content thread
 

In the tourney any time you go out you have to give a reason. There HAS to be a reason with explanation in the tourney mind. Going out this early means that:
A) YOU SUCK and are awful and that I am way better than you
or
B) You got unlucky
or
C) You were using the buildup a huge chip stack and win the tourney or bustout early and go play cash games strategy.

When ever anyone goes out, to simplify explantion all you need say is, "I'm out...(Insert a,b, or c)"

Re: WCOOP 6max PLO low-content thread
 

what if you go out 2nd?

At least you can watch the football. The game I want to watch (Ireland-Georgia rugby world cup) isn't on the TV and I can't get an online stream without endangering the Stars connection.
