If the structures and field sizes are like the last one, and I imagine they will be, it should be another great tournament series. It'll be nice to have some good guarantees again on Merge.

Going to try to play a few of these. Having to work 6 8-10 hour days doesn't fit well for the schedule. But, I have been on a good run recently ( +ROI first time ever! (At least since I have been playing on Merge :) ) I played 1 back in the spring and min-cashed, so I am 1-0. Hopefully I can do the same or better in a few more of these.

GL to everyone playing them!

Damn these things to hell!!! Event #1 - Came in really late, and never got anything decent. Event #4 - Came in on time. Typical rebuy. Alot of open-shoving early. Was getting really good cards and was ahead after flops, but couldn't get anything to hold. 0-4 during rebuy. Typical. Ohh well. Better luck on the next ones. :icon_sad:

I love the game of poker for the competition, the psychology, the never-ending quest to improve, the advanced and sometimes minute complexities not everyone sees when they play, and the enjoyment of succeeding after giving all your energy to reach a goal that may at first seem unattainable but that you find a way to make it possible.

Oh shatup donk4life :P

With our stacks at the time the action and ICM his shove was marginally bad at best but that's poker. He was really a pretty good player. I think he was mostly just sick of me 4 betting him.

In my defense that tweet was right after I busted and I was bummed. over busting in 4th.

Meh I guess I didn't read the HH well enough. So what was the action? Guy opened, tight guy 3bet oop, you cold 4bet, and the guy 5 bet jammed?

If that's the case then yeah you're probably right.

Yeah that was exactly it but tight guy is the btn who is 14/12/4 over more than 3K hands so I do mean tight and the guy with 99 is a reg too so he should know this. He and I had very close stacks I had about 31bb and he had about 34bb and the btn had about 50bb. I cold 4 bet in the bb so I'm never light there after a nit 3 bets. But honestly I think he was just sick of me 4 betting him and had a good pair and said fck it I'm all in. He posted on P5s in the Maximus competition thread where I posted about finishing 4th that he'd lost count of how many times I 4 bet him. It's was a tough FT once it got about 5 handed and the game lasted forever so while it wasn't a great 5 bet shove on his part and I understand why he did it.
