I should pay more attention

Considering that observation is
one of the key skills of a good poker
player, I'm a bit embarrassed that
I missed this. I would have taken the
PS Blogger Championship tournaments
WAY more seriously if I knew there was
more at stake than just qualifiing for
the final event.

WBCOOP Update

To quote Nelson from the Simpsons...
"I feel like such a tool".

I got caught up watching football on
Sunday afternoon and forgot about
the Blogger Championship finals on
PokerStars.

I finally remembered almost 2 hours in,
but I had been blinded down severely by
then. Only 137 (?) players left.
I shoved with AT in the cutoff and
the big blind woke up with AQ. No help
for me, Out. Not that I deserved to win
or make a big come back, its a fair result
considering my absent mindedness.
Oh well, its only another 12 months until
the next one.

PokerStars WBCOOP

I just qualified for the Championship Final

of the WBCOOP at pokerstars this sunday.

At the first break, I was in 2nd or 3rd and

decided to more or less just sit on my

chips and wait for about 400 more players

to bust out.

I figured the tourny would just stop when

we got to 72 players (top 72 received

entry to the final). It kept going, and so

did I, despite having nothing really to play for.

Finished 6th out of 559 horses.

I might play a couple of the other events

just for practice.
