Re: *WSOP 2012* Official TWSS WSOP Chatter Thread

Anyone playing the main event want to split a condo rental for a week or so? We would each have our own bedroom, be able to cook some meals and be a bit more comfortable than in a hotel. I've seen some things in the $600/wk range so thats about $40 apiece per night, not a bad rate.

Some of these are walking distance to the Rio, and I'm going to have my car there if we need to drive.

I have issues with the salt content in most restaurant meals, so I like to at least cook part of the time while I'm out there. And I do make some good tasting stuff.

Posted my WSOP package here

OK, it's just the main, but with options on another tourney once I get some money from the shares to buy in with.

If you know anyone looking to buy, please send them over.

Thanks,

Shauna

Re: *WSOP 2012* Official TWSS WSOP Chatter Thread

Update on the ladies events so far here in Las Vegas...I played the Caesar's one two days ago and the Venetian one last night. Went deep in both, but missed cashing in both by just a few...

Obviously the ladies events are smaller than the open events at wsop and Venetian, and so you expect a more specialized field, but my tables so far in both ladies events have been tougher than all my 1k and 1500 wsop tables so far, with the exception of the 1500 6max I went deep in a few weeks ago. Also, I've had to make tougher decisions and been put in more complicated spots over the past two days than my ENTIRE wsop so far. If you know me personally, you will know what a huge statement this is for me to make, as I don't give praise easily

This is truly indicative of more ladies playing the game and improving...and is obviously showing up in the results we have been seeing over the past few weeks. Well done everyone, keep it up...

I KNOW! I thought I just got a tough table draw at the VDS ladies event, but maybe it's the entire field. Bet sizes, particularly pre-flop were so much more competent at the ladies event in comparison to other events here, for starters. I couldn't believe there were at least 3 players at the table who understood pre-flop leveling wars, which made it more fun than ever!

I know some of you stayed at the Gold Coast last year and want to hear your feedback on that; it's on my short list to lodge next week.

Also anyone staying there this year?

Re: *WSOP 2012* Official TWSS WSOP Chatter Thread

Alright, one more shot at today's $1.5k for me. Amazon purple 419. Anyone else playing? I've decided that if/when (more likely when), it'll have to be in a heroic fashion this time. I have a renewed appreciation for stack preservation.

After this tourney, I'm probably going home for a few days for a break, and to eat more than 1 meal per day. Hopefully I can get rid of the nausea from too much adrenaline/cortisol here.

Hot dog! This could be the year a woman finally wins it! GO GO GO Katie, JamieAnn and Katie75013. I also understand that a lady named "Gazelle" (or Galle?) finished last night as the overall chip leader with over $550,000 in chips. Of course, the sickening thing was the famous cross dresser (Shaun Deeb) was in third place overall. (Wouldn't it be great to see a final table showdown HU between one of you ladies and Shaun - and you crush the cross dresser!? (If ESPN wants their ratings to go up, that should do it. Ha! Ha!)

OK Katie, if you manage to final table and actually ship this baby, Wilbur will be the proudest dog in the neighborhood. He'll be able to gallop around the neighborhood, wag his tail, and bark to all his furry four-legged friends, "She's my owner and she's the tops! Woof!! Woof!!" Wilbur can probably write a new poker book: "How to Play Poker For Dogs" by Wilbur (and WSOP Champ Katie.)

You go girl. Win this thing, baby!!

Re: *WSOP 2012* Official TWSS WSOP Chatter Thread

one of you ladies needs to ship this thing.

Is day 3 6-max? or is the restart list not final? I'm so confused.

Re: *WSOP 2012* Official TWSS WSOP Chatter Thread

there's two lists, one of End Of Day 2A&B and one of End Of Day 2C, i think we're supposed to combine them ourselves

or not: http://www.wsop.com/pdfs/reports/121...TABLE_SEAT.pdf (correct list)

Last edited by Altigiun; 07-12-2012 at 03:01 PM. Reason: looks like they combined it now

Re: *WSOP 2012* Official TWSS WSOP Chatter Thread

Probably off-topic, but a quick scan didn't find a better thread for this, so..


WTF, ladies?? less than 5% of the fields, as was reported somewhere?? There really haven't been more women available to enter WSOP tourneys?

Or.... are ya'll just smarter than us dummies and saving your money for smaller tourneys and the cash games?


Post-saver? GL to all of the 2+2 women in the main event

@Larry I wouldn't be surprised if the Main Event field has never been 4% female. Still quite a few left from what I can see. I'd guess 2-3 will make the top 100.
