Hey guys, I don't know if anyone is interested, but here goes.

Heartland Poker Tour is coming to Blackhawk, to the Golden Gates Casino.


Official Site Here and full schedule.

Due to Colorado Gaming Laws, direct buyins to this tournament are not allowed. See below for satellite structure/cost/info/dates.

There are $40 and $75 satellites (structure) to the $300 + $40 Qualifier (structure). The top seat from the $40 and top two from the $75 satellites get seats into one of eight $340 Qualifiers. The top 20% from each Qualifier get seats to the Main Event (structure).

Anyone here planning on going?

I'm going to take $300 and play the $40 SNGs till I win my seat to the qualifier. I think that's the best route since the tickets are transferrable. Has there been any talk about strat for these? I've heard the play is really horrible at these events.

Some advice from elsewhere...

On Sats, the more players the better and the closer it is to the tourney, the better. Bigger fields and more desperate players means more players who don't understand solid sat strategy especially as you get close to the bubble. Typically, you always have players who end up knocking themselves out when they could have folded to the seat.

Makes some good points. Have you thought of what dates you want to go up?

I thought that the $40 sat was one table and the $75 was two tables, but they are both one table SNGs.

I say we try to go up the first. We can call after work and see how busy it is, then head up accordingly.

Doesn't sound bad, except all of the qualifiers are during the week. What about us who actually have to work for a living?

Favorite Poker Game: Not just another arrogent asshole pothead.



40 dollar sats are a one table satellite and only the winner advances, with the 75 top two players advance to the qualifier.

main event strategy: build your chips early and fast and towards the money bubble/TV bubble the play is going to be almost always preflop so get your preflop game down. the most important thing i learned in this event was to pick on passive players and short stacks all day everyday.

the event i played it payed to 30th and i busted in 32nd when tournament leader busts me (i had the 3rd biggest stack in room) on a AIPF coin flip. weeeeeeeeeee

Sounds like a plan to me. I'm lucky everyone in my office is out of town that week. WOOT WOOT!

You're the second person that's put it exactly that way. I just found out the 75 are singles table SNGs too and see like the better option to hit the quals.
