First two #WBCOOP Events played - so far so good

Friday, February 24, 2012 Posted by Unknown , No comments
Yesterday's PLO 6max Event #2 was cruel because I could never build up any stack and missed all double draws (open ender + flushdraw vs KT on a KTx Flop) to bust about 40 away from the tickets and today I decided to enter Event #4 about 15 minutes late (30 min late reg). Event 4 was a NLHE / PLO Turbo and the Final Table is still played, 5 minutes per blind level surely guaranteed lots of action though.

Early on I played very few hands and caught 1 Bluffer from the Ukraine as well as a tilting Romanian who shipped his remaining stack straight into my Aces, from there I stayed within the top 15 the whole time. One key hand to not drop down any further was the following (can't really fold out of the Blinds imo).

One pair of Queens and double up was pretty much the only big hand despite an isolation with K-9 os where I knocked out a shortstack for 2xBB, but barely reached the Final Table:


Last hand was an open shove with A-K and ohmano isolated with A-J:
