Ok were on another break so here is the update. I am still alive but running card dead. I am currently sitting at 6188 chips which puts me in 176th place out of 221. 144 places are paid. I will now start playing using my clock to slow down the table and stall to protect my chip against the blinds and antis as much as possible. I hope to get some great cards to double up my chips with. Later mates.

------------ well i am out of the tourny in 207th place.

When still having that many players on the tourney, you have an advantage: you know it’s not only the bottom players that have the risk to go away with no prize, the mid rank ones are also passing through that. Leaders can be considered as the only group passing through less difficulties, as they can tight their game in order to guarantee their place at the list, and they will most commonly only attack shorties, making them tremble on the possibility of calling or going all-in with the wrong hand or against the wrong hand, without being able to define expectations about their opponent’s hand.

im in the same $1 tourney i was in yesterday on 888 currently in second with only 47 left (30 paid) hope i beat yesterdays 5th place. good luck all
Mober i don't think i would like to start playing poker as a living. i think it would be too stressful. I play for fun and to try to earn some money for the odd treat for my family i like it that way. no pressure to do well.
you never know tho. one day it might just happen
------------ well that didn't go to plan. finished 23rd for $2.37 got out kicked on two big hands i played. oh well least i made a little profit lol. good luck all

Well mates Here is the 1st update. We are now on our 2nd break and I have made some sweet moves that worked out and a few that did not. you know how it is. The late registration closes in five more minutes. I am currently listed as being in 238th place. The top 855 place get paid. I have 16620 chips and the chip average is about 8500. I am trying to maintain my calm and discipline. I know I must continue to try and play my "A" level game to make the final table. I really want this win today. It would really set me up nicely for the new year poker season. Trying to Run Hard & Deep. Be cool mates. Good luck to us all. I will update again later. Ronin Harper

------------ Well i just finished the tourny in 516th place.for a cash prize of $18.25 I could have stalled my way to a little more money but I got queen 10 suited and tried to make a move in an attempt to make more chips. I was trying to win it not just hold on for a couple more bucks.
later mates

Congrats on making the money buddy. Yeah it's a bit pointless holding out for the money to go up when the money ladder is a bit flat that far from the ft. I try to play for the win on every tourney I play in so can't fault you trying to get more chips there mate.

G'day mates I am about to start playing the Hot55 . this is a NL Holdem tournament with a $0.55 buy in which alot of people play. I will let you know how I run later. Hope to run deep.
until later. Good luck to you all on the tables.
Ronin
------------ Ok Mates time for an update.
well we are on a break and the registration is now closed. 12418 entrants and there are now 3667 players left. 1620 places get paid in the money. I currently have 7717 chips which places me in 1940th place over all. I was 3rd a while ago. I have been on a real roller coaster in this tournament up down and all over the place. been getting great cards that are getting cracked or hammered constantly. I hope to keep getting good cards and for them to hold up. I would love to get back up to 20K in chips again. I had back to back king cracked then aces died too. What a horrid tournament. until later. Ronin
------------ update mates I am out of the tournament in 1520th place so I made the money but that was a nightmare to play in tonight. I was getting nice cards all along but people would not stop chasing till the river and the suck outs seemed to happening even more then normal. I am actually glad its over for me.
