Less than 300 left, closing out the last level of the day. Well done. Be patient, there's a long way to go tomorrow.

In case anyone is curious about the structure here is is, day 2 starts at level 12.

Things prob won't get super crazy until 4-5 hours into tomorrow.

Oranges on the table.. 288 left and 20 more minutes to play.

Garick is my WSOP money making machine! C'mon BRUH!

Lost half my stack triple barrel semi- bluffing a Fd with overs. V rivers a straight. Sigh. 16K now.

You aight. You have to lose a little to win a lot. Triple up coming followed by a double.

Don't sweat it dude. Avg stack is ~36k right? Starting tomorrow, everyone's M will be ~10 and it will be a shove fest soon enough. You'll win a few flips, have premiums hold and be in good shape.

Off to tomorrow wit 14.5K in chips and something like 15 until the money. Let us gogogo!

If anyone knows of a good article or post on short stack play on the bubble in high stakes MTTs, please link ITT. Also, investor feedback: play to make the money, or play to accumulate chips?

DOH! I'm an idiot. That wasn't Vanessa. It was Erica Lindgren (née Schoenberg). The ball cap fooled me at first

Nice work!

Not an investor, so no opinion on that.

Just very happy for you that you've turned in a solid performance in your first WSOP event. Congratulations.

Man...all the good stuff happens at the end of the night. Agree with APD on counting Men's stack

Congrats on making day 2 and on an excellent performance so far!

As a (miniscule) investor, I say play the game you're comfortable with. I think HoH would preach accumulation as opposed to survival, but it's been a while since I read my Bible lol. Anyway you're the one playing...you know best how you feel comfortable using tha chippies. Good luck in day 2!

Very nice! GL Garick!

On investor topic - no worries either way from me. You are the majority investor, make whatever plays you feel are best for you

GL today Garlick. Whatever you do, just be confident in every play you make. Go bruh!

This!

GLGL

Just do you - tucked in t- shirt and all!

Congrats.

As for strategy, you want to steal blinds from short stacks like a boss at the start of the day. Everyone is trying to avoid being bubble boy. Unless they have AA or KK, they're going to let you have it rather than risk not moneying. I think "The Grinder" one time shoved 15 times in a row and never got a call in that situation. Great way to build up your stack. As soon as the bubble bursts, nit up. Everyone is going to go nuts trying to double up or go home with ATC. You've got too much skill for that, find a good spot only if you want to play.

Once things settle down again, your main read you're trying to get is whether someone is just trying to get to the next money level or trying to win it. You want to steal from those trying to survive to the next level and trap the ones wanting to accumulate chips. The ones folding it down are the ones that will have premiums.

As for tomorrow, you want to make sure you stay well hydrated. The last thing is take your time with big decisions. Tired people think slower. Take the extra 30 seconds.

You lucky dog.

Oh, and this.

Garick wp and gl tomorrow. get some rest and a good breakfast

Garick: play to make the $ if you are short but don't fold yourself out of existence

C===== doesn't have a slice of Garlick

Listen to venice. Just don't try to resteal light against a 15bb stack, lol. You start today with ~12.5bb. You have fold equity. Good luck!!!!

Congrats on making day 2! Well done G, run good!
