19 players to go, so close now.
I think you could take the blinds on the button as sb and bb are middle stacked like I was saying, nobody is dare going to steal now unless they have to but mosy importantly don't take risks.

yep i agree.. only 16 players to go. should be wrapped up in 2 or 3 rounds. they seem to be dropping off 1 player every hand played

hotspur

Lol Cooker3 is like the devil on your shoulder "go on steal the blinds they'll never defend them..."

hotspur

Most superfluous flashing of Aces ever!

I know, nervous watching this, I would be in bits if I was playing in it!

RichieLawlor

or THEPIRAT on table 618

bloody break, just 6 to go.
I think at this stage, people would fold everything bar aces and some may fold that, uber tight and uber slow but if you just hang in there, ticket should be yours

jacQues

Break uhm... lost track... 7?

Been playing for 8 hours straight now; and its getting light outside!

240 players left... 234 get a ticket...

I'll be one happy hamster if I get through this and win a ticket.
...and one tired hamster too!

check fold everything. you'll make it. 160 players with less chips than you.. ! wp!!

hotspur

Jesus Christ you see that guy at your table wondering what State the WSOP is being held in and is disappointed it's not a more exotic location!?

ocallagh

OMG... with 1 player to go, 2 players with 250k in chips each got involved in a hand for 400k. neither player had the nuts. what a pair of fukin idiots. the guy who lost the hand is still ok on 70k but still....

cooker3

I know, it's unbelieveable how little some of them know about it.

GG Jacques, congratulations on qualifying, well played!

W000000000000000000000007!

VIP status (just for playing), a ticket, hotel arranged (gimme a T-shirt lol) and 1,000 added to my poker account!!!

SWEEEEEEEET!!!!!!

Thanks for all here for your help and support. Much appreciated. That tourney had a buyin of $370, which is by far the most I ever payed for a poker game (previous was €90 for the Westwood and I won €75 of that in their freeroll). Also the longest session for me by far; 8½ hour!

I'm just an amateur poker player but I badly want a second WC title. So, I went for it. And on the WSOP I'll do the same again...well, that's the plan.

I hope to see a lot of ye there and have a few pints in between poker.
