WSOP 2006 - TP's Updates...

[Talking Poker]

Damn, RR... You go to bed WAY to early! I need a new assistant! You should have Text Messaged me, MB, as RR had apparently already checked out for the night.

This thread is kind of a mess, eh? We should have made a new one for the live updates (in Railbird) and saved this one for more of a general Vegas recaps type of thread. Oh well.

First, let me answer a few questions that I saw here:

Yes, we started with 1500 chips, and not 1000.

Green chips are always 25. Always. I had so many in front of me, they kepy coming by and buing stacks (20) off of me n exchange for a purple (pinkish in this particular tourney) 500 chip. I sold 7 stacks and at the time of that message, had 6 left (plus plenty of other chips).

Let's see, what else were you guys speculating about? Yes, this is a bacelet event, of cousre. It's the WSOP - they all are. It's the event I inished 6th in last year. To make more money, I'd need to finish 4th this year. Go figure. 1st place money moved from 220k to 230k thought and they are paying 99 spots, not 90 like last year.

There are monitors teling you the average chip stack (it just divides starting chips by the number of players left), but there's no way to say who the chip leader is. I am CERTAIN I was the leader for a good while though early on. I had to be.

Ok, time for a new post for the good stuff.
