Pokernews Cup Main Event - Daylight Savings!
October 27, 2007
Ok so the main event of the Pokernews Cup kicked off today and a massive field of around 428 players rocked up to have a go at over $1million prizepool with $300,000 for first. I of course was delaing in the mahogany room - lucky me - on the shitty little roulette table having no fun whatsoever untill about an hour and a half in when i get requested to go down to the poker room to deal on the televised table for the rest of the day. Finally their is a god and I can deal what I wanted and what I thought I might be rostered to deal.
The day was like any other with me dealing sick hands and giving people bad beats including the hand that Joe Hachem got eliminated. Oh well like everyone says ‘That’s Poker’ or as I say ‘That’s Bullshit.’ Whats the point of saying anything. I remember Jeff Lisandro yesterday getting crippled by pushing all in on a draw and getting called and losing but the other players said ’sorry Jeff’ and Jeff looked at him like he looked at Prahlad Friedman and said ‘ why you sorry mate? you got my chips fair and square - you cant be playing this game if your sorry everytime you win a pot.’
A lot of big bust outs and day 2 starts today with the room still buzzing. The Pokernews guys of course are doing a top job and everything is run real smoothly. Tonight I have a wedding to attend to after work so maybe hard to be blogging depending on the recovery stage, if not tomorrow Tuesday. Did I mention that its daylight savings downunder - 1 hour of grumpy me for the day after losing sleep!
I’m thinking of using a word of the day to end all my moods and how the day went as a whole. Starting it midweek or whenever I want really, just giving you the heads up about it.
