Default Re: Timex\'s Well

On a scale of 0 to 10, rate this video.

Have seen it way too many times, 7


imex - do you worry at all (or did you worry before you turned 18) that sites may confiscate your funds as it's well known that you were underage when you created the accounts, violating ToC?

I used to worry more, but I don't think its very likely, and I don't think I know of anyone whose actually had money confiscated permanently when their account was closed.

Also - can you give some more detail on the power SnG - some of us don't know that history...

Paradise had about 8 daily tournaments which offered ~TLB points, they also have the dise equivalent of FPPs. During the months of June/July, based primarily on these 2 things, 10 seats were awarded.

They went to:

TLB winner
Most FTs
Most Wins
Most FPPs
20 player freeroll for 2nd-11th for FPPs and TLB
100 player freeroll for 12th-61st for FPPs and TLB
500
2500 (these last 2 are rought estimates)
And then 2 players who somehow got in from something really random.

The power SNG had almost no advertising done, and I hadn't found out about it until like the first week of July, there were only maybe a dozen players who had been trying hard to get in. I was trying to play lots of donkaments to go for triple crowns, so I played like 4 of the 8 qualifying tournaments, and after running sick hot, I started playing all 8. In the end, I tied for most wins with Apestyles with 7 IIRC, but his wins totalled like 2k more than mine, so he got the seat. I was like 10th on the TLB though, so I got into the 20 player sat which I went on to win.

Now when the main event came up, I was trying so hard to sell my stack to someone. The EV is 109k and its probably ridiculously soft for someone who can handle the variance. The EV was like 2/3 of my roll, so I said I'd sell for 100 if I could find an offer. Lots of people offered like 85-90, durrr told me yesterday he'd pay like 120, wish I knew that at the time. Anyways, I feel like 90 is too little, so I decide to play it out, its 1m to 1st, 10k to 2nd-10th, chopping isn't allowed until its 3 handed. 2500 chips, 20 minute levels. I luckbox this tournament stupidly hard,chop it 3 handed for much more than my equity, and then win it for 330.


is it weird that I probably won't play any events until the wsop, and might not even play that?
No and Yes, I think Will's win was slightly bigger than yours
