ANy updates on the survivor series that is going on right now? How many runners?

GP

I played the 300 survivor and there were 150 runners. The 120 last night had 162, I think.

Cool thanks, Im thinking of taking a crack at the H.O.S.E but i've never played a live hand of O or E ever lol so that could turn out badly! Would be fun though and only 300 bucks...

anyone know who to talk to about changing the structure of games?

the past 2 saturdays ive gotten a 1/2 PLO game going which the floor has been very helpfull with getting it going etc.

but they dont really seem to have a clue as to how the game should be set up and dont even have a card for it. They just use the 1/2 PLO8 card with tape over the 8 part lol.

IMO the buy in should be 100-500 for this game not the standard 60-300 who can I talk to regarding this? I would love to see this game go on the regular but have gotten coments from some thats its too small/not enough play given max BI.

Does anyone know how long the $300 survivor tournament lasted until last night?? I'm thinking on heading down for tomorrow's tournament.

The 300 was down to the final two tables around 7ish. I think there were 18 left with several short stacks. I told one of the big stacks at one of the tables to go have a nap in his car and come back in a bit to collect his 3K. There were several huge stacks that were not sitting, got up and walked away. Smart IMO.

They all run on weekends with 1-3 tables. On weekdays:

20/40 will run every day at least one table usually 2.

10/20 runs 80% of the time, often breaks from 11pm - later.

5/10 is the same but usually competes with 10/20 for the dwindling pool of limit players. Late at night is usually an either/or choice.

40/80 is running around 3 days per week. Some of their players may be in Vegas now.

5/10 has been hurting latley, but gets at least one table on the weekends

10/20 Is spread almost everyday and can get upto 3 tables on the weekend

20/40 Always has one table and usually 2 on the weekdays can have up to 5 on the weekend

40/80 Goes every Tuesday and usually has a game going on the weekends. Sometimes gets a shorthanded must move

Yea I cashed in the $120. Had 100k in chips when there were 90 people left. Very boring, but nice to win $880.

300 lasted to 7:30 8:00 PM. The $120 only lasted 6 hours.

I'm heading down tomorrow, although I'm thinking of switching it up and trying Mohegan instead. I hear its a little more fishy on the weeknights than foxwoods...Anyone making the trip?

I will probably make a trip down thrusday night for some 1/2 maybe some 2/5

Hollllla just took down the $120 survivor for $1500....i was the only one to get top payout because they wanted to chop and i was chip leader. Pretty good 24hr marathon session: +800 in cash ($1-$2) + $1500 tourney score that i reg for last minute.

I work thu-mon so id be able to go down mon tue wed if you go. ya im from stoneham whcih right next door to where you are. i work for the t tho so its a pain to try to get mondays off though but mon-tues-wed im game to go down

Ok cool, send me a pm whenever your thinking of going down....im gonna be there alot this summer if the $1-$2 games remain as soft as they were these past two days.

im thinking of heading to the woods tomorrow couple of items maybe i can get some updates.....

How many runners you think for the H.O.S.E tomorrow?

How many runners did the NL get yesterday, either the 300 or the 120?

How have the 1/2 and 2/5 games been this week?

Any chance at a PLO game tomorrow?!

Thanks

GP

start a list for PLO its has been going once and a while
1/2 games are always good IMO
2/5 usually good sometimes may want to have a table change

Anyone have any thoughts on the stud hi games at FW? Been a while since I played Stud Hi on the east coast and wondering how the games are.

98 entrants for the 120 last night, paid top 12 but ended up chopping it with 15 left.....

NH dirks

I have a good feeling that you will still recognize most of the table.

anyone know if FW has ever spread a 1/2 or 2/5 PLO/NLH game? Ive played in this at the borg and it was a pretty big hit. They changed the game at each dealer change. Would FW spread this? or is there any interest of any one here in that game at the 1/2-2/5 level?

Is customer service still poor there? Dealers, cashiers, floor people were all rude last time I was there.

On the whole I think they are very professional and they don't kiss rear-ends. The few that don't speak English well I don't blame.

During WPT in November I got a 5/10 PLO/NLH...game rotated every dealer change....played for like 6 hrs., had a great time.

well, I just got back from Foxwoods, and man am I glad I played the H.O.S.E. I managed to cash in the top 6 for $3,000 , with 7th getting $507.

72 Entrants

11am start - ~9pm finish

Anyone else play? Sick last hand where a guy scooped to take out 2 shortstacks, we didnt even play 1 final tbl hand.

Hey Vestron, congrats....I played, I busted it out well before you though lol....id say maybe mid pack-like 38th or something.....I decided to have a go at it even though I'd never played a live hand of Stud 8 or Ohmaha 8 in my life. The ohmaha round wasn't my issue, I actually did really well in the HO portion but the stud games, well yeah let's just say, nottt thattt great lol.....especially in the Stud 8, a couple times I had A doorcard with a deuce in teh whole then somehow i'd never end up even getting a low, and then hoping my two pair would hold for the high which it never did, I had a lot of fun though....not even sure if that statement in itself makes any sense lol.....I was trying to read the super system chapters as a crash course on the way up, but you know, 95 is dangerous .....it's nice to play something other then straight hold em for a bit...but anyway congrats on your prize
