They are currently playing in level 3, Nazgul is busto, RobbieV is still in and I haven't found Allanon yet. BongBob is playing tomorrow.

Nazgul said he went out with QQ vs K6 on a Q high board. The money went in on the turn and villain had a flush.

RobbieV is doing well and has 17k chips now. He said some guys decided to call him with a K high flush in a 3 way all-in pot. And the guy was the last caller too, "let's gamble" the guy said.

So you don't have to scroll through 50 pages to find a specific item. I will start a new thread once the thread gets over 20+ pages.

We are into Level 4 now, blinds up to 75/150. I was told that, there will be 10 levels today, or it will also stop when only 15% of the field is left.

2,306 signed up in Day 1A. There is one more Day 1 tomorrow, BongBob and a few other PokerStrategists will be playing tomorrow.

Allanon has 10.5k chips now

I have no idea as well.

We are nearing the second short break now. After the break, blinds go up to 100/200.

Both players are down a little. Allanon has 9k and RobbieV 13k.

Here are a few hands from both of them.

Hand 1

I join in on the flop. Board was showing Qc Td 2d. There was a small bet from EP, Allanon calls, another player calls.

Turn Kc, another small bet from EP. Both call.

River 9d. check,check check.

Allanon and player to his left show A K, EP showed T J for the straight

Hand 2

RobbieV had T T vs a really aggressive player, he 3-bets, villain ships it for about 4k, he calls. Villain has A A

He hits a T on the turn, but villain improves to a flush on the river.

Hand 3

RobbieV has K K in EP and opens. The blinds call. An ace comes on the flop, one guy bets out, and he folds. Both of them had an ace.

RobbieV: "The hand with kings was really gay, the hand with TT was also kinda gay."

he is already busto.

ElkY goes all in, in Event #11. He wins the pot though as villain folds, and wins a whole bunch of chips.

durrrr is also still in Event #11. He is seated next to our "friend" from yesterday.

I think her name is Julie Polatchek, according to the table line-ups.

Still in level 5, blinds at 100/200

RobbieV - 15k
Allanon 7.4k

RobbieV has been getting some pretty good cards today. Aces twice, Kings twice, Queens and AK. He didn't win both times with Kings, and chopped the AK.

Up to level 6. Blinds at 100/200 with 25 Ante.

RobbieV: "I'm up to 17k by the way"

Allanon: "I hate poker, in 3 hours, the best hand i have with pocket threes. I make a set and lose to the flush draw"

That was before Allanon bust out. I went to check on RobbieV after talking to him and he had no more chips. This is what happened.

Allanon raised A 7 suited from UTG, UTG+1 calls, MP (really bad player) makes it 1,600, Allanon goes all in, UTG+1 calls and shows A A

20 minutes to dinner break. I'm starving.

RobbieV has just over 14k chips now. There was some funny table conversation at the table with the dealer just now. Before this, they were trying to guess where the dealer, Tammy, came from. She is from Taiwan and has a typical Taiwanese accent.

RobbieV: "Tammy, can we guess how old you are?"

Tammy: "No!", "How young I am."

RobbieV: " Can we guess that?"

Tammy: "No!"

RobbieV: "How many boyfriends you have?" (Tammy starts counting with her fingers.

Other Player: "I thought you said, how many abortions she had" (or something close to that)

By special request, more of Liv Boeree

Back from dinner with RobbieV. I had a steak and RobbieV ate half a chicken.

He has about 17k chips now. Blinds will go up after the break to 150/300 and 25 Ante. 530 players left. 30 minutes more in the break BTW.

Robbiev: "I ate half a chicken and I'm ready to go"
