Last week in an attempt to get into this years WSOP.
This last week I have tried to win a seat into the WSOP seniors event. On the first day Monday I got second (only first got money in a sit-and-go) so I lost 65$. The next day Tuesday I won 100$ playing Aces cracked the promotion in the mornings at the IP (Imperial Palace). So on Wednesday I tried again at a 65$ event where I think there is only one 500$ chip involved ( these Chips can be used as money to enter any WSOP event or easily sold to other players, anyway they are treated the same as cash to the players and cashiers. I lost the second try with a pair of Aces against a pair of Kings we both went all in and a King came on the flop beating my Aces. I try not to be disappointed when I get into the situation where I bet with the best mathamatical hand and then take a "Bad Beat" and lose. I was never the less disappointed and discusted. There are a number of ways to economically get into WSOP events which cost from 1000$ on up to 50,000$ not being
able to afford any other way than the Satellites I am forced to continue to try via the Satellites tournament technique. anyway you can see about the events and the satellites at this site at the bottom of the page http://www.wsop.com/tournaments/. I then decided to play the 75$ morning Mega Satellite on Friday morning and forgo playing Aces Cracked and my normal routene. In this approach there is a larger number of players in this case 80 playing for the top 8 places where all the winners get a 500$ tournament chip and some extra cash depending on the number of people who sign up to play the event. Anyway without boring you any more I finished in the top eight and now I have one 500$ tournament chip and am going to continue to play satellites until I have enough to play the Seniors Hold 'Em event on June 17th hopefully without to much more expence remember I am buying my way in with money I have won.
