Stick your name on this Thread if you plan to play any of those Tourneys, lets update the thread during the evening, as the tourneys progress. Are YOU still in? I am.
How many will be playing the 8.15 SleepStack & 9pm BH tonight? OK, neck on block time. There are - as of now (7.30), 9 entries for the 8.15, and 85 for the 9pm Bounty Hunter. I reckon the Sleepstack will end up with 99 runners, and the Bounty Hunter 401. What's your guess for these two tourneys?
Looks like I'm a mile out on the numbers for the 8.15 Sleepstack. With 10 minutes to go, only 23 players are Registered so far. Oops.
A late surge saw the Sleepstack get 83 runners, with 10 paid. So I got it exactly right. Well, virtually exactly right. Let's see how my prediction for the 21.00 BH fares. I predicted 401, & as of now, there are 167. I am confident of the double.
The 9pm BH has 287 runners with 15 minutes to go. I think I've nailed that one. Am sitting nice and quiet in the Deepstack, a dozen players departed already, but they are playing way too fast for me. I plan to play a hand at around 10.30pm. I've already played one, for goodness sake.
With 45 minutes gone, I'm 44th of 68 in the SleepyStacky. But the good news is that the 9pm Bounty Hunter has made a whopping 476 runners. No ceegar, but close enough.
2 hours into the Deepy, I'm lobbing along at the rear of the field quite happily, 27th of 33, and 50 have departed. Will need to play a hand or two soon. Nice Table - "merlin109" (Huddersfield) has played well imo as has "tonybw" (Southampton).
And an hour into the BH, the field of 470+ has been whittled down to 140, & again, just sat there chilling, 85th place, average chips. Not taken a single Bounty, sigh.
Shocker in the BH - am up to 3rd of 83, double average, & have taken a Bounty. So that's £6.50 in the kitty, come what may. Shame I've invested nearly £27! Still, not done yet. Terrific fun Table, too, with lots of the usual gang Railing. 50 Paid in this baby, so I'm hopeful of a Cash.
Not so much of a shocker in the Sleepystacky though - am out. I Button-Jammed with A-T, & "Aloette52"(Woodford Green) looked me up with 3-3. It came Painty-Raggy, but the best hand won. OUT in 25th. Must try harder.
Amazingly, with 54 left (4 off the money) Michelle Orpe - who is doing PTP tonight - joined my Table. How come she's still in, that's the mystery? Very odd.
Still, a Cash is in sight for both of us.
Orpey & myself both CASHED! Happy Days.
Still in, too.
tallboy just got a remarkable 3xup, with KK v A-Q v A-8.
OUT, 28th of 476. Found A-J, which is a good thing. Ran into AA, ("jerbroni", Bristol) which is a BAD thing. Orpey still in, just.
So I got £16.66, & £4.69 in Bounties, so that's tonight mostly paid for. Happy Days!
Michelle Orpe finished 13th in the £4,000 Guaranteed Bounty Hunter, for £20.23 + £3.23 in Head Prizes. Well done the Orpester. But the question remains. How?
Good luck Mr Max.
Let's see who lasts the longest - we'll both Post our finishing position on here.
It's looking like a massive field by the way - with 15 mins to go, 523 entrants already. Could be close to 600.
PS - No porky-pies please. Honest finishing position.
184th here.
"Slowly away, always behind, never threatened leaders, faded badly, tailed off. Probably hopeless".
Sigh.
Still in the Sleepstack though, which started 2 hours ago, 19th of 33, ZZZZZZZZZZzzzzzzz..........
on the cash now, nice double up early doors!!! always nice!!!
My PTP bankroll has halved since the heady days of about two months ago (don't worry Des, it's still around what I started with!) but I'm sure if I stick to the basics I can play my way back into form.
So keep an eye out for me, and even if you don't play me, drop into the chatbox and say hello.
My alias is RichOrford. Tap that into the 'Find A Player' function in the Poker Lobby tomorrow night then come and have a go if you think you're hard enough!
Tuesday is the 26th (TWENTY-SIXTH) not the 25th.
Monday 25th - yes, MONDAY 25th - is reserved for a much higher calibre PTP Host.
So, on Monday 25th - tonight - I shall be the PTP-er, & I shall be mainly playing......
8.15 Deepstack. £5 + £0.50.
9pm £5,000 Guaranteed BH, £10 + £1
So that's £16.50 invested.
Plus random cash Tables, at varying Levels.
I'm also doing a few Live Phone-Ins to tonight's Show, so if you want a shout out, come find me on the Tables, & I'll do my best to oblige. You can look me up on "Find a player", I'm playing as "Tikay10".
Butr whatever you play tonight, just enjoy, & Good Luck.
