Day 1 results
by Adanthar on 01/27/08
I've got 69K heading into Day 2 (~45K average, 360 of 500-odd left, 54 paid.) It was a tough table/seat draw, with John Hennigan (last year's winner and, I think, one of the best poker players I've ever sat with) directly to my left, but I got the best of him all day - it helps to flop lots of sets. In addition, Rhett Butler was to my right, Rizen spent all day in Seat 8 (I was Seat 4), and a shortstacked Tmay420 showed up for the last couple of levels in Seat 9, but there were a few soft spots and I chipped up off all of them. I never ended a level with fewer chips than I started with, which is always a good sign, and will have > 100 BB going into Day 2, another good sign. As I've usually been saying on here, I'm getting more and more comfortable with the way live play flows and all of my moves are working/I'm picking off small bluffs with third pair repeatedly. This type of stuff (winning small pots with next to nothing, picking the one good spot every 2 hours to bluff, only losing one pot making a "wrong" calldown postflop all day, seeing no showdowns but constantly chipping up just a little every hour) is really big for me; when my reads are on like this, I only need to win one or two big pots a day to go very deep.I'll post as many hands as I can when I get back home to a working computer.
Other notables: Vivek @ 110K, Thayer @ (I think) 50K, Shaun Deeb busto with 2 hands to go in the day.
