Default O8 Representative for the WSOP Main Event

Some of you may have noticed this post in MTT.

Our own representative for the O8 forum is Buzz. I was asked to nominate a strategy poster who has gone above and beyond the call of duty over a number of years. Buzz was my obvious pick.

Somehow Jurollo missed him in the original list, but he is definitely invited to a freeroll on Stars, which will take place Sunday, April 30th, for a main event package to the WSOP this year. The package not only includes the buy-in, but extras, as well.

Please give your support and congratulations to Buzz, who is under no obligation, but will hopefully represent us as the Omaha 8 achievement poster for 2+2.

Buzz is head and shoulders above the rest when it comes to analysis, odds calculations (implied and true) and being a gentleman in his posts. Great pick and good luck Buzz.

I don't think Buzz even has a PokerStars account since he says he doesn't play online. In any event, good luck!

I've heard he doesn't even have a computer or know how to turn one on (he's just really really REALLY good at math)

TG, good catch. Buzz, if you need to set up a Stars account, here's what you do:


Get a stack of 13 red chips. Also create 3 stacks of 7 blue chips. Now place a white chip on top of each of the stacks of blue chips. Arrange the stacks in the following pattern:


B B B

R

Now, take one chip off the top of the pile of red chips, and put it exactly in the middle of one of the other three stacks. Then take the remaining stack of red chips, and shuffle them half into the 2nd blue stack, and half into the 3rd blue stack. Now get four large metal mixing bowls. Place a mixing bowl over each of the three stacks, leaving the fourth bowl empty. Turn around, and have someone mix the four bowls, jumbling the locations of the bowls that are hiding the stacks.

OK, we're almost there, hang in buddy.

Now, turn around, and choose a bowl at random. Turn it over. If there isn't a stack concealed within, you have failed and will not be able to sign up at Stars and have a chance to win a WSOP seat. If there IS a stack concealed within, check to see if it contains a single white chip (no more, no fewer). If it does contain a white chip, then you win, and get to go to www.pokerstars.net, and click download. I go there all the time. To tweak my game.

Mute could you explain that again, but type more slowly this time?
