Lold, gl to you sir, I hope they sit me at your table directly to your left!! LOL.

Good luck all!

Are two people at the same IP able to sit at the same tournament table?

A large number of counterfeit chips were introduced into event 1 at some point and they suspended the start of day 3 to investigate. The police and FBI were brought in to assist in the investigation, and then the DGE decided to have the Borgata cancel the event. Definitely not a good thing for anyone.

Here's an update from pokernews on it - An Announcement Regarding Event 1 From the Borgata

Late registrations would be allowed for the second entry till the specified time. However at any point of time a player can only participate in the tournament from either Party or Borgata and not simultaneously.

I wish that 888 would've put up a tournament that was football related. I guess maybe it'd cause a problem with the NFL but I don't know why. It'd be nice if they had a tourney "Broncos vs Patriots", something similar to their "Dems vs Reps" tournament. Especially considering they're going with this football theme right now.

Also I don't get why in these tournaments on 888 the payout structure is ridiculous. 2nd place gets basically the same as 2-6. Then 1st place gets double what 2nd was paid. It doesn't make sense to me.

I will pass on your suggestions and feedback, thanks.

Does any one know if the 6 table max is just for cash games on WSOP. Can I 6 table cash and play the tourny when it launches?

Pretty sure it's only cash.

Has anyone signed up for the Borgata Online Prepaid Card to deposit/withdrawal into the site? How do you like it? Is it like a regular debit card wherein you can withdrawal funds from the local bank? Or is it more like a credit card in which you can only do cash advances with an interest rate?

See WSOP $250k chat thread.

Will U.S. regulated poker be more accepted by the banks eventually? I mean you have banks that have came out and stated they will not process gambling transactions even though it is accepted by the state of New Jersey. If the banks accept more deposits it would be even easier and the player pools would increase a bit.

Why on earth would it be the second way?

I refuse. They charge you $3 a month maintenance and $2 per withdrawal along with other fees.

Is there a way to see how many games are going on wsop.com when not in nj? I downloaded wsop.com but all it does is show 888poker games from outside the usa which im currently at now.

I did. I was denied twice using other means and was getting impatient. Hope I don't go busto, bc I wouldn't do it again. It's very easy to buy the card and deposit once you have it, but (1) there was a $10 transaction fee (on a $200 card); and (2) >2 weeks before snail mail delivered it.

Do you know your ROI? Just curious what you think is sustainable over the longterm, assuming the level of play doesn't get drastically better (or worse). Yesterday on the money bubble of the WSOP $250K I saw a 9x opener fold to a shove getting 12:1. Makes me believe that >100% ROI isn't out of the question.

Right now my Roi is 119% after 1022 mtts logged on NJ sites since I started on Dec 1st. (Overlays ftw) That is not even close to sustainable. If I can sustain a 50+ % ROI over 7,500+ mtts in 2014, I would be happy for the year. Yes the play is redic soft, but I don't think anywhere close to 100% roi is sustainable over a decent sample size. That would be pretty sick imo, but maybe Swanson can do it!

it might be sustainable if you stick to the deep stack tournaments
