2009 WSOP Information Released

[Robbie Robb]

Not a full blow-by-blow schedule but lots of information including date range (May 26-July 15).



Also, here's a side-by-side comparison between this year and last year:



For those too lazy to click. Here's a couple highlights:
November 9 still exists.
Special $40K buy-in NLHE gold bracelet event to celebrate 40th anniversary.

[Talking Poker]

Good stuff... Bummer that they changed the HU Event from $5k to $10k - I'll have to really think about that one.

At a glance, I think I'm probably going to go out for the first 2 weeks, and then play it by ear after that, I guess.

What does this mean?

Triple Chance No-Limit Hold’em (Event 52)
No Rebuy/Add-ons $3,000

Google search turns up speculation, but no answers.

[MAYHEM45]

Time to start looking at house rentals, woo.

November 7-10,2009 TBD FINAL TABLE

[Windbreaker]

I don't know the correct terminology...so I'm just going to say rebuy and add-on.

Treat the event like a rebuy tourney...except that you can only rebuy/add-on a maximum of two times. I believe you get two rebuy chips and can use that any time you wish before the rebuy period ends. If you bust out, and still have a rebuy chip left you can use it to come back in.

Ways to use it -

- Double add on for a triple starting stack right off the bat (probably a bad choice unless opponents at the table do it and they suck and table won't break)
- Play like your standard way with one bullet. If you bust then, rebuy and repeat...if you still have rebuy chips at the end of the rebuy period then add on.
- Play maniac style and play aggressively to chip up....bust out...repeat till you're on your last bullet.
- Just have enough in your stack to cover the guys to your right...play position.
- Others.

In any case, if the rebuy period is about to end, and you only have near the starting stack, you should play a lot more aggressively if you have another bullet left...especially against guys without any.

Moving to Cali, so I might have to satty in through some Sacramento scrubs.
