when play ends for the day you do not leave the room until your chips are counted, double counted, bagged, and signed off on.

your question of what happens if a player misses the announcement saying 'do not leave until your chips are bagged' and walks out of the room is moot and somewhat ridiculous. I guess if someone just walked out of the room the dealer and the floor would count the chips and both sign the bag but this would not happen as players realize that they have to sick around and players fear getting shafted by dealers who can't count.

PS - in the future please use a thread subject that directly relates to the main topic of your thread. Pretty much 'wsop' is never going to be an appropriate thread title because it is too vague

Why would you plunk down 10 grand plus in an event if you are not going to be there to play the whole thing? [img]/images/graemlins/confused.gif[/img]

lol, play a different day 1 obviously.

Here is the blind schedule... I am not sure how long the levels are but assuming you miss 120 hands you will be losing too many chips to be able to have a reasonable chance of competing if you leave for 3-4 hours

If they are 1:30 levels you will be missing all of level 7/8 meaning that you will lose 31,800 chips while you are gone... good luck with that:

Level Ante Blinds
1 $50/$100
2 $100/$200
3 $200/$400
4 $50 $200/$400
5 $75 $300/$600
6 $100 $400/$800
7 $100 $500/$1,000
8 $200 $600/$1,200
9 $200 $800/$1,600
10 $300 $1,000/$2,000
11 $300 $1,200/$2,400
12 $400 $1,500/$3,000
13 $500 $2,000/$4,000
14 $500 $2,500/$5,000
15 $1,000 $3,000/$6,000
16 $1,000 $4,000/$8,000
17 $1,000 $5,000/$10,000
18 $2,000 $6,000/$12,000
19 $2,000 $8,000/$16,000
20 $3,000 $10,000/$20,000
21 $3,000 $12,000/$24,000
22 $4,000 $15,000/$30,000
23 $5,000 $20,000/$40,000
24 $5,000 $25,000/$50,000
25 $10,000 $30,000/$60,000
26 $10,000 $40,000/$80,000
27 $15,000 $60,000/$120,000
28 $20,000 $80,000/$160,000
29 $30,000 $100,000/$200,000
30 $30,000 $120,000/$240,000
31 $40,000 $150,000/$300,000

The thing is, it looks like you've already set it up (planned it) in your head to bust out on day one, or not to make it to the money.

If you have that already in your head, what's the point in playing?

In order to win (at anything) you have to approach it with positive expectations from the beginning.

In other words, if you PLAN to win, most times you will do so.

Just something to consider as you make your choices.
