WSOP Little One Drop Day 1B

edited July 2017 in Poker Chat

Play starts at 3pm (11pm UK) today.

They will play 10 x 1 hour levels, with a 20 minute break every 2 levels. There is no dinner break. Play will therefore end around 02.20am (10.20 am UK).

Officially, players begin with 5,000 chips, but those who pay an additional $111 get an extra 5,000 chips, so 10,000 in all. The Sky Poker qualifiers will of course start with 10,000 chips.

    The attrition rate yesterday - Day 1A - was very high - just 117 of 687 survived the day. That just 17%.

    There are three opening flights - called, with startling originality A, B & C - & so Day 2 will be Friday.

    Most, but not all, the Sky Poker massive are playing Day 1C, tomorrow, but we will have some playing today.

    Sam has a note of who is playing today, & their seat & table numbers. Sam will come across to The Rio from Palazzo with Mark at around 2.30pm with all the info we need, so we'll try & get an Update going then.
     
    I understand Sam is currently busy, perusing the sights of Las Vegas.

    Don't know all the players lined up to play today but I think IrishRose and Shaz aka SUPERNOVA on Sky may be playing today.

    Morning all.  I'm going to play today as well, so will wander over to the media room and say hello.  Mark, I hope you bring better luck today than yesterday.

    After a couple of days sightseeing I'm ready for some poker!

    How much would it cost me to buy 10% of your action?

    Good trip so far thanks Tikay. We've hired a car and had a trip out to mt Charleston yesterday. Amazing place, especially being so close to Vegas.  Watched the temperature gauge drop from 108f in town to a pleasant 68f at the lodge.

    Bok free zone sounds good. Looks like I may have picked the right day. Interesting to see only 17% survive yesterday. Suggests bubble bursting early day 2?

    Ahh, Mt Charlston, my favourite place in (well near) Las Vegas.

    We usually go up early morning for an 8am breakfast at Mt Charlston Lodge (NOT to be confused with Mt Charlston Resort, which is poo), and have breakfast outside on the verandah, watching the humming birds coming & going, and, err, humming.

    Spectacular drive & scenery. 

    Bubble early on Day 2? - yup. Not much gets past you Accountants, does it?

    Exciting start, but not involving me. Second hand of the game, Lady to my right gets it all in pre with aces and is called by queens. She holds and next hand hits quad 3s to add a few more to her stack.  I'm folding like tikay, just head in opening stack
