Do both!

I don't think we've seen TAB in here. He keeps to the tournament forum. There must be a thread for the current open, and you can find him to PM. Or maybe not. You might have to try a more conventional route or wait.

I'd guess he'll start thinking about October on Saturday.

I'm pretty sure I saw an advertisement for an upcoming deep stacks tournament during the live stream of one of the Borgata Open events.

But... I'm not 100% certain.....

So many donks calling pre flop raises with Q7o, slow playing flopped trips, calling all ins with flush draws and negative EV... i think the amateurs with too much money for 1-2 spill over into the 2-5 and 5-10 games ruining it for people there trying to play the game. Please take that **** to harrah's.

I thought those kinds of players are who everyone wants to play with? I sure would love to play with them every time I sit down at a table.

what i just read:

"i have no idea how to play poker and when people play random hands vs my tight starting range and they stack me i get upset because i can't fold an overpair. the few times i cooler them by having AK on AQ7[4][K] vs their Q7o, i then berate them for playing such a ****ty hand. i do this to show everyone how much better of a player i am than them. I also wear sunglasses/headphones because i'm a pro, though i normally only buy in for 50bb. i either lose it all and rebuy or i run it up with my superior play until some donk inevitably sucks out on me and takes it all"

Oh. So, you are that guy that I see once in while. The guy who acts like he thinks that he is so good at poker.

In the future, when I see you, I will just say "Hi Johnny(_on_the_spot)!"

Some people are a net negative for the game no matter how fishy their logic is.

Also jigsaw Johnny was berating the guy, so not sure why you would call that type of player johnny lol

Heard from floor he was a "trust fund baby" with about 100 million. Speculation ran from royalty to aging rock star.

Does anyone know how long the Sunday deep stack $100+20 tournament usually lasts? Is "re-entry" the same as a re-buy tourney?

re-entry: you get a new seat assignment, typically at a new table

re-buy: you stay in the seat that you busted out of

Beware of collusion at 1-2. I was playing last weekend and a young Asian couple were clearly playing together. They were constantly whispering to each other after hands. What's worse is that when they were in a three way pot one of them bet the river, the person in middle position folded, and the other one looked at the bettor and said "I'm short stacked" and raised at which point the original bettor folded.

I didn't realize what they were doing until after I left the table.

I asked the floor about this the next day and he said that it is collusion and that they would separate them next time.
