Maybe I'm just blind. I thought we usually had a thread to track people playing in major tournaments. I see a non-WSOP thread but not an actual WSOP one.

Anyway, I'm alive for day 2 around 300th of 358 or so. Strategically, I'm thinking a lot about whether passive strategy makes sense with a tiny stack of 3-4 big bets, with little preflop fold equity versus the big blind. Maybe I'll post more about this later.

Who else is in it?

My first table had what you always want to see in one of these, the guy who sits down saying, "This is Omaha high-low, right?" and then tries to check/raise for the pot on the third hand of a limit tournament.

But in general my tables started tough, got easier after a few hours. Not unbeatable, not as soft as I'd hoped.

I didn't last long on day two. Ended up around 300th of 918 as my A245 got scooped by A

Q on an A2J (dd) - 5 - J board. gg.
