On my forum view, the entire last two pages were about Thunder Valley cash, tournament and satellites, so excuse my poor ability to read into someone's mind about which "THE" HU tournament they mean.

**As far as I know, WPT Borgata is the only stop all year that an actual HU tournament in the schedule.

May would be cool, I'll donate to the donkey fund.

Thanks barber!!! Great read and it has happened to another person before. Sounds like 1 in 2,507 times when you have KK you will flop a set and be drawing nearly dead to one out. Shouldn't happen again for a while and I will not fold a flopped set of kings in the main event.

If Day 1B entries exceed Day 1A as expected, should be around a $2 Million prize pool for the WPT tournament at Thunder Valley. Who would have bet on that happening 3-4 years ago when they had video poker tables?

Thanks Ben Erwin for making changes that were needed to make a WPT success, great job by the traveling TDs and the support staff. My experience has steadily improved at Thunder Valley over the past year, it's clear that you hear the concerns and are trying to get things done. You've come a long way, don't stop now! I don't want to travel 400 miles to play 1mm+ prize pool events.

I'd start by asking him, "are you Steve?" Then post results back here for further instructions.

hotel at thunder is obv sold out so anyone who has a room and wouldn't mind letting me crash for the night on a roll out or something would be appreciated. ill pitch in for room of course. just dont wanna be out there playing late and then drive back to eg and wake up and drive back to thunder for the noon tourney. this would be much easier solution.

anyways shoot me a pm if ur interested.

GL to whoever is still in the tournament. Unfortunately I was not able to get time off to even play in it so I will have to vicariously live through you

Lol thx. Ended up sleeping in my car from 8 until 15 min ago which only felt decent cause I had a good night. Nothing a red bull n pain killers can't fix.

And I'm not THAT young, but by looking at the avg age of the players in the horse tourney I'm a kid

My bad, nobody used my room, but we were playing pineapple OFC in it until past 2:30, we went to the cafe then I decided to just drive home at around 4, I remembered halfway home but had no way to add you to the room or give you a key. Wish you would have text me to remind me, I hate wasting a room like that.

I think it is the most gambley when it is mostly "pros"/regs. Friday and Saturday night the situation was people calling $185 pre with 93o. Every pot was ~$500 and every 2-3 hands people were all in.
