I wouldn't take that as gospel for a couple reasons:
1) There are alternates constantly joining. Some numbers bantered about have been 200-250/day for alternates. They are actually running satellites to get a spot on the alternate list!
2) Yesterday they had the exact same 2182 number only it was 2182/2000. Yes 2,000 - not 2200...

Oh, and Mark's up to 9375!

Two updates:

First: Dealt AA again. Only picked up the blinds. "Whoopie"

Second: Lost a big pot with AKs. Won blinds with AA again.

Chips: 8175

On second break.

Chips: 7725 :eek: :eek:

He lied. He has 7825. Raymer just told him that he's down to 6000. One more level til dinner break and then Mark's planning on turning it on when the antes kick in. Tight image.

if anyone is interested.

Chip update: 8925

NEW Chip update:

Was 9425. Now 7625 after JTs mess.

Haven't heard from Mark in a bit but CP/PW are both reporting his chip stack at 5300.

Never a better time to pull up the TP cheer girl!

Okay. Found out why we've been suffering from a dirth of updates. Apparently Mark got his hand slapped for using his phone to text me. He's on dinner break right now (as they all are) and is currently sitting at 16,000 chips.

He says lots of interesting hands.

Let's hear it for the rally monkey and cheerleader!

Edit: don't mind me I'm stoooopid.

I was wondering whether that was going to be an issue... I assumed it might because you could have someone on the rail TMing you if they caught a peek of someone's hole cards at your table. Too bad, I guess the updates will have to come from CP... who have TP at 6,000. :rolleyes:

I mentioned to Mark that they had him at 5300 and he says "They lie. I was never below 7300" so, as good of a job as they do, it's not always accurate.

I also find it hard to believe that Deeb is @ 1M. That would be 100 players he's knocked out personally (or the equivalent of).

OMFG....
GL
Take er down!!

Yeah, that chip count for Deeb is clearly wrong. PW has DN out in front with 41,000... that sounds much more realistic.

I can't even find any reference to Deeb in the chip counts at either CP or PW...

CP has some big names out...

Retard of the Day award goes to... me. Duh, I clicked on the Aruba link from Mark's page at CP. I'm an idiot. :rolleyes:

We now return you to your regularly scheduled programing...

Awesome. Wonder if he ever got it all-in in that stretch. 16K is pretty exciting after it looked like he was getting low.

Go Tp!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Just heard from Mark again. He's just about to start playing so he probably won't be updating for a bit.

yea i saw on cardplayer they had him at 5300, and i was shit man thats not a good start. But you said he texted you and hes at 16K, thats great best of luck Mark. I'm here railing him too..as we all are
