Any GFYers playing in the WCOOP $10M Main Event tomorrow?

[Varius]

Biggest guaranteed prize pool for online poker ever

$5,200 buy-in, anyone playing?

I just took down a turbo 5-person sat for 70$ into the $320, 100-seat guarantee tourny later today. If I take down a seat there, I'll be in tomorrow going for the big cash

Congrats so far and hope you make it to the big one. Keep us updated.

If someone wants to stake me I'll play
I won a 938 person $10 for $4K last month. But spending $5200 on a buy in is too much for me.

Well the $320 sat is starting in few mins now. Seems like I'll have to come in top 120 people or so to win a seat, out of about 2300.

Update:

Made it to first break. 1881 players left from the initial 2503 and my position is currently 392/1881.

Lost a big pot a few minutes ago unfortunately, my AK vs. QQ on flop of AQT, didn't manage to hit the straight. Otherwise would have been up a lot...

Hour 2, here we go

Update: I am eliminated

Pocket jacks, i re-raise from 450 to 1300 and get one caller. Flop 974 he checks, I check. Turn Q, he checks, I push all-in he calls.

He has Q9 offsuit for two pair and river no help.

I don't know how he even calls the pre-flop raise and re-raise with Q9 off though

I am no expert in poker but why check post flop here? Giving him freecard... You have an overpair of JJ... Would not raising his check post flop be a good bet?

Yes, I could have bet right there on the flop, though my thinking was I didn't want to scare him away just yet, wanted to suck as much out of him as I could be allowing him to bet hopefully on the turn then I'd raise. In this case, it didn't work out for me though.

However, I think had I pushed him all-in on that flop, he still would have called it with top pair (seeing as how he went and called a pre-flop re-raise with only Q9), then hit his turn and knocked me out anyhow.

I could have pushed all-in pre-flop, perhaps there he may have folded...maybe he wouldn't have. I'll never know
