I just wanted to add a little 1/3 beat I had the other day before talking about the wsop satellite, dont mind me. :-p
If you have read my little blogs about my adventures swimming among the fish in my live 1/2 games you would know I have been on a successful streak lately. Yesterday was another decent day with leaving with 740 stack after buy in for 200. My bank roll for 1/2 has almost doubled since i began and I'm feeling pretty good. I really haven't had a bad day minus one day about 3 days ago and it sort of went like this:
10 minutes into session: Bought in for 200, 1/3 game, not even through first orbit yet...
Ks,Qs, on the button. Two limps to me and I make it 18 to go.
Both blinds fold, one limper calls. Flop comes 9s,Js,4s. Not bad right?! I have no info on the limper as I have just sat down.
He checks to me and I make a 35$ bet. He calls.
Turn, Ad. He checks again and I bet 75, a little small perhaps but I'm bad. He shoves over the top and I sadly call. I thought he might have the As but needed another spade as most fishies love chasing.
River was a blank (no spade or board pair) He flips over As,2s. FML FML FML
My only joyful moment in that night was going to take a leak with the song "car wash" playing on the speakers and the guy in the urinal next to me was moving his hips from side to side to the beat of the song until I heard "damnit!" I think he got a little too excited with swaying his hips and pissed outside of the urinal. It made me smile.
Anyways!! The Horseshoe Casino that I play at is having a wsop satellite every Monday. A 120$ rebuy, 200$ add on after the second or third break. Start with 800 in chips and can add on for 2000 more. A little awkward I thought but they usually have 150 people and a prize pool of over 60k.
The reason I want to play is I have had decent success playing at Horseshoe tournaments taking 10th, then 6th at my last 2 events. I am in much better form than I was when I previous entered and have a great coach from liquid poker to help me get ready. The few people I have seen make it into the money are complete DONKS. No exaggeration to the word. People who blow through at least 1k when they play 1/3. I feel good about joining but what do you guys think?
Let me know and thanks for taking the time to read this!!

Was there a different way to play that or was it just bad luck for me? |

You know you do something wrong when you don't get stacked here. Hyper-ultra-standard cooler. |

You should play more online!!! Haha  this is obviously superstandard and you're very result oriented. Think of all the hands you defeat here... You should be more aware of EV imo and be happy over +EV moves and ignore coolers aslong as your play is +EV! |

Has anyone played in a satellite like this one or at all? I haven't played a tournament where everyone almost seems short stacked right away... |
