Anyone playing/played? I know living in the Bay Area we don't have thy many large guarentee tournaments. Interested to see if any 2+2ers are playing, maybe talk about some hands at breaks or whatever.

i'll be there tomorrow to play the 6max pm me if you wanna get my info glgl to you sir

I'll be there grinding cash at night - I'll be the youngest-looking caucasian at my table (probabilistically speaking, of course). I'd like to meet some 2+2'ers who play there, look for me in a plain gray sweatshirt.

Hey guys sorry for not responding, would def like to meet up with you guys and exchange some info. I've only played the $350 on tuesday and got 22nd. Got it all in pre flop with QQ vs 77 for a 200k pot and 7 right on the flop gg fml. Will be hopefully playing the Main on sunday. Anyone playing today?

I try to make a weekend trip like 4-5 times a year. Wish I could go more but have work and dog. I will be going to the WPOG in reno dec 3-6.

Playing today

From what I'm told, it's not much of a "guarantee". First place prize money is guaranteed, but they just take it from the prize pool. If turnout sucks, all the lower places get screwed - they don't add anything to the prize pool.

This is correct, but still besides going to reno/san jose, gold rush week has the biggest prize pools for the bay area all year. So its def worth playing imo.

Played the tag team NLH event on Saturday. It's a nice change of pace I'd like to see at more tournaments. Player 1 goes in 30 min level, player 2 plays next 30 min level and so on. When you've got a crew buddy it's fun.

Busting with AA vs 44 all in preflop? Not fun.

I think one of the Bay 101 Open events are like that too.
