Feel free to say howdy, snowman/brown jacket.

Are there pictures of Natasha everywhere yet? I expect them to plug her (being an attractive woman whose picture they don't have to pay for) pretty hard in the next few weeks before the popularity dies down.
She already has pictures on google, but from other tournaments. I have not seen any from her win on Friday.

the bagging of chips process is a joke. Staff needs to figure out a faster way to do it. Supervisors do not need to count down every chip stack, have the dealers help. Bagging for the 750.00 took over an hour for the 5 tables that were left. Coming back on day 2, we had the class F dealers. I mean, with 2 tables left, we had 2 of the worst dealers in the house. We're playing for 47k, not 47 cents. If they aren't allowed to deal behind the glass, they shouldn't be allowed to deal the more expensive tourneys especially with just a few tables left. Please.....

And for goodness sakes, get more tourney racks that fit 20. the pos racks you have now only hold rows of 19 tourney chips...

lol, I saw the one particular dealer in question lined up to head to those 2 tournament tables an hour or so before it happened when I was standed back by the glass and I almost went up to the TD and asked if he was going to let this dealer deal the the final table or last 2. But figured he wouldn't even know what I meant so didn't do it.

How did you finish I saw you at the last 2 tables?

pretty much everything people_mover just said.
I went deep in the 200r and somehow always ended up getting moved to the next table that was going to break. was a pain in the ass racking up chips every 20 minutes moving and while trying to figure out how much i actually had in front of me playing hands.

the chips were so slippery you couldn't even slide them in together which created even more chaos when we were down to 2 tables and each hand took about 5-6 minutes. Not to mention it took the twist of an arm to get someone to color me up when I had about 300k in 1k chips at 12k/24k. granted i was happy i was in and happy i was there, i was wishing i could worry more about playing poker than constantly worrying about whether i had stacks of 20 or 19.
also keep both johns and paulene off important tables. they just slow the game down. sorry but it's just the truth and tournament officials should understand this and just try to keep great dealers back there.

btw mover i'm swimbeaver from the old ap forum days be cool to meet you sometime. I should be there tomorrow for the turbo grey hoodie with a broken heart on the front emo obv.

How is the 1/3 and 2/5 tables at the moment?
Also- The new chips in the tournaments are super cheap, just look at the sides and how nothign is lined up properly and you can tell... that being said they are nicer than the old ones.

Swimbeaver, I was at your table when we were down to 5 tables and one of the funniest things I heard all day was when Natasha said she was scared of your hoodie and you came back and said 'it's got a broken heart on it and says John Mayer on the sleeve. How is that scary?...' Classic.

I was next to the guy who called her down on three barrels with A high for about 90k...

You know...in regards to the whole "no backpack" thing...I have literally brought my small backpack in like 70 times...and seen a few others each occasion with backpacks without any problem or hassle from any staff. I've gone back and forth for dinner a few times with it and grabbed stuff out of it multiple times without anyone ever saying anything.

I honestly didn't even know there was such "said policy" on backpacks.

TT vs KK (I folded the turn on a 9652 board he showed)
KQ vs TT (set vs top pair he showed it)

If it hadn't been for that super sick A8 hand I told you about I wouldn't have made it through those two hours even though I lost the minimum each time, and unfortunately those hands tilted me enough to lose 1/3 my stack in a trivial fold spot where i had JJ against someone who obv had AA but I just went ZOMG A PAIR SHIP.
I had AA 0 times, KK once and it was a walk, and only AK twice (see above).

I only 'ran good' in spots where I was all in with the best hand and it held. Does that count?
chopped for 1st in a donkament = you ran good.

LOL, yes, I think so. But if I ever chop first in a donkament, I will also pretentiously claim I ran terribly (and offer any evidence I can recall) while implying I brute force'd my way through it all anyways with my tremendous skills. Can't blame him for tryin.
