Main Event Dia Dos
This entry originally appeared on my WSOP blog at PokerTips.org.
Title in Spanish since I’m rooting for Spain tomorrow in the World Cup Final.
Today was day two of the Main Event. I drew another really sweet table to start the day but those guys just had my number. I only started the day with 18.4k and by the time I was moved off a table of old guys that play ABC-style poker, I was down to 11k. It took moving to a table with a bunch of young aggressive guys that had a ton of chips in order for things to turn around for me.
I made it to day three with 47.1k. I’m pretty fortunate to be able to say that; I was all-in, called, and covered three times today. Even though I was a favorite on each of those hands, my odds of surviving all of those all-ins was just 36%.
If you want a bit more of a play-by-play and detailed rundown of how things went for me today, you can check out my Twitter page and read through the updates I was posting live from the table.
We get tomorrow off which is great because it means there won’t be any poker getting in the way of watching the World Cup final. We’re having a PokerTips meetup at Lagasse’s Stadium in Palazzo for the game. I might go to the PokerStars party at the Palms tomorrow night; supposedly Snoop Dogg is going to be performing there.
Back to the felt on Monday when blinds will be 500/1000/100, so despite being below average, I’ve got plenty of chips.
Lastly, my friend Justin made this pretty funny video campaigning to be added to Team Victory Poker.
