Been a while since my last blog but I guess today is a good reason to write a quick entry. The WSOP 2012 is coming up and today I headed over to PartyPoker to check out the Qualifying Structure for their WSOP Satellites.
Yeah I know sounds like a Satellite to Satellite to Satelllite to enter a Satellite, but it's actually not that bad. It's only 2 steps to the $750 tourney which seems very doable.
The $9 Sub Qualifier Speed appears to me to be the tournament with the best expected value and ROI. The field is (still) pretty small and with a 3k starting stack the 5min blinds aren't to bad to cope with.
I bubbled the first one with only 28 players enrolled and managed to come 5th in the second with 56 players. The 5th paid $16,80 so I almost broke even which is pretty cool and I'm happy with that.
In the second tournament I been dealt some sick hands. :)
I got A's twice in a row but sadly the first hand didn't play. When the Bullets came around again the hand played like a dream, Check out the Holdem Manager Replay . I flopped a straight to ace in the next hand with AT and took the chip lead for a while.
A few hands later I was dealt Jokers twice in a row calling off short stacks but didn't get to fortunate. The first player showed AK turning the A and the other player had A7o also turning an A. It was pretty funny actually seeing the ace come twice in a row on the turn and one of the players said: "That's your payback for getting A's twice in a row"... I guess he was right. ;)
My plan is now to grind out at least two of the $9 satellites a day for a seat into the $75 satellite and then take it from there. I'll keep my blog upated and will put up some of the best hands or whatever happens.
Let's see if I can make it into one of PartyPoker's $750 WSOP Satellites.. would be awesome!
Stay tuned! ;)
