yea i was curious about this as well

Sorry guys, I posted in a thread in MTTc but I should have posted in here. I busted a few minutes into day 2 AA < JJ. In the future I'll post all updates in this thread.

The field was amazingly soft and I can only hope that the rest of them will be as good.

I'm at the Horseshoe Southern Indiana and just like last week, I made day 2 with a barely below starting stack. I have 12,400 halfway through 400/800 blinds, 55 players played down to 27 today, 9 pay. The field was a lot softer than you'd expect for so few players, but both tables I played at were the type were you just had to show down hands, and I wasn't getting any of them. For example I got called all the way down by JT on a AQJTQ board where a flush got there on the turn (which I had).

Busto 18th.

Frustrating tournament, I shortstacked for like 8 hours and never got close to average, finally shoved 97s from the HJ and couldn't get there for the triple up against two AKs.

0/3 now. Blind structure was really silly, I ran AK into AA and got live slowrolled.

Continuing the theme of making day 2 with barely below starting stack, I have 13k going into day 2 of BCPC (started at 15k). I think we started with 676 players, about 380 left and 63 pay. Called a guy down with the nut flush on a double paired board to lose 1/3 of my stack in the last orbit of the day, at the time I felt like he could be value betting worse but in retrospect it was probably marginally bad vs. that nit, IDK.

gl, its not over til its over

It's over now though.

Hey fellas,

I hate making this post, but is it OK if I skip out of PCA? My mom/dad/extended family want to me to go visit my grandmother with them that week, and I feel bad saying no since my grandfather passed away a couple months ago and it'd be nice if I were there as I'm sure she's lonely. I don't want to tell them I'm going to a poker tournament in the Bahamas instead or ask a bunch of family members to change their schedules for me.

I understand that part of the reason people agreed to pay me markup was because I was committing to play five tournaments, and I'm open to whatever you guys think I should do to make up for that, including substituting another 10K for PCA, or ending the deal and refunding PCA buyin + some of the markup already paid. If you guys insist, I'll go ahead and make the trip to Bahamas, but I'd really rather not do that if you guys don't mind.

I guess this is why it's not a good idea to package tournaments far apart into one deal like I did, things come up. Sorry about this.

im fine with whatever, was looking forward to seeing you at pca though

every things cool with me too. if you just wanna ship back pca money thats fine.

OK, I decided to end the deal now and return money not used. I'm also refunding 5% of the markup, since I don't think it's fair for me to play less tourneys than I agreed to and hold people's money for 3 months, without giving a bit of a refund. Do people think this is a fair amount?

Anyway, the buyins I played added up to $14700, 20% markup is $176 per 1%. Each $1575 block includes $880 that was spent and $695 that's coming back to you. A couple people had been sending the money one tournament at a time, those people will only get a small refund for the markup reduction.

Sent money back to everyone except imawhale26. Does anyone know how to contact this guy outside of 2p2?
