Little One Drop Day 2 & the Sky Poker Magnificent SEVEN

edited July 2017 in Poker Chat

A very good morning to you all.

It was a nightmare yesterday trying to keep track of all our players, especially as tables were breaking with great frequency due to he high attrition rate.
 
First up, I'd like to offer very big thank to Markycash who volunteered to assist with the Updates, & in fact ended up doing almost all of them himself. 

He's a great lad, though we barely conversed all day. I use the word "conversed" advisedly, as it implies a two way conversation. Most of our convos were him saying something in a mixture of Glaswegian, Norwegian, Geordie & Scouse, & me saying "pardon". Truly.  

Anyway, on we go.

Play today will start at 2pm Vegas, 10pm UK.

    I've worked through all the 749 survivors (of whom 659 will get paid) & I think we have AT LEAST 6 survivors, being 2 from Day 1B & 4 from Day 1C, yesterday. Apologies to any I may have missed.

    The Super Six, along with their chip counts, seat & table draw, follow shortly.

    I do not as yet have approval to link real names to aliases, but of course if it really interested you, it would be easy for you to do.

    Rather frustratingly for us here, 5 are in Miranda - at the other end of the corridor - & 1 is in Amazon, which is bang opposite the Media Centre.

    I'm not sure how many times we walked up and down that corridor yesterday, but it was in the hundreds. And the surprising thing is it is uphill both ways, or it seems to be.*
     
    * May not be true.

    749 remain, & 659 will get paid.

    I fancy the money bubble will be upon us very quickly, certainly within the first 2 levels. (So, before Midnight UK).

    RektSai has drawn double bracelet holder (and winner of Event 3 this time around, all those weeks ago), Upeshka Da Silva.

    If anyone needs a table breakdown, either here or by email to Tikay, let me know.

    Fast forward to 2018
    You've qualified on Sky and you're playing the little one drop. It's by far your biggest ever tourney.
    Negreanu has open shoved the first 6 hands blind.
    He does the same on the 7th hand. You look down at AKhh

    What you do?

      Well done all who got through to today. Bumped into cpfc an hour ago having breakfast, the lad must be a robot, I would have been in bed till Noon at least today.

      Hope the six all run well, and all make the money.

      #Message for Supernova, Jill is talking about doing the zip line tonight but may join you on Saturday.  Hope you had a win last night..We will probs be by the pool at Palazzzo, just to the left of Solaro cafe.
      Catch you later.

    Afternoon all.  Nearly poker time! 

    Odd experience having 36 hours to think about how you'll play your short stack.  Quite an interesting dilemma to be honest.

    I'm currently sat in 667th of 744 with 659 places paid.  I have precisely 18,700 chips, with blinds at 600/1200 and a 200 ante.  That means it's going to cost me best part of 4,000 per orbit.

    So what do I do guys:

    1) Look for an early double up, forget min cash I want to win it
    2) Hang on and fold pretty much any hand and pray for that bubble; or
    3) Something inbetween?

    Advice gratefully received but probably ignored if I see a pretty looking hand and can't resist playing it!

    Good luck to all the other Sky players, would be great to see some of them run deep.

    Cheers

    Mattp (aka Boring Accountant or Guatemala's finest poker player called Matt)
