Leaving Las Vegas: Busted from the 2006 WSOP Main Event

This year 8,778 people entered the “Main Event” of the World Series of Poker (up from 5,619 last year). A total of 873 people will end up “in the money” and will be paid something for their efforts, but atlas, I will not be one of them. On Sunday I was “busted out” from Day 1C of the Main Event. While I was hoping that 2006 would be the year that I would advance deep into the Main Event, I have to wait another year to give the Main Event another try.

One of my personal highlights from Day1C was meeting Pauly, the writer and voice behind the great poker blog “The Tao of Poker.” Tao of Poker is a must read for anyone who is playing in the Main Event of the WSOP. I appreciated the coverage Pauly gave me in his blog in his accounting of Day1C. I also enjoyed meeting Eddie Pells a sports reporter from the Associated Press who was working on a story which was recently published entitled “Pays to Be in Shape for Poker_Really.“

During the few hours of the tournament I managed to keep my chip stack more or less at the same level it was from the start, $10,000 in chips by playing ultra tight. Things were working pretty well until I ran into a situation where I should have folded my hand and just didn’t. The dynamic of Table 59 worked out while I was there and I especially enjoyed the opportunity to compete against two world-class poker players who were sitting at my table, John Gale, 2006 WSOP Bracelet holder and winner of the “Pot Limit Hold’em” tournament sitting in the number 9 position and sitting to my immediate right in the number 5 position was “Action Bob”, a winner of the 2005 Borgata Poker Open
No-Limit Hold'em tournament.

In the end, this was another great learning experience in my quest to become a better Texas Hold’em tournament player, albeit a costly one. While in the morning I will be leaving Las Vegas for a quick trip to Burbank, CA, which will be followed with a jetBlue redeye to JFK, I decided not to wait another year to play in a World Series of Poker event. So, I just took the necessary steps to register to play in the 2006 World Series of Poker Event #44 which will be taking place on August 8th, just a week from today.

In addition, an area of cool waters persisted offshore of California, Oregon and Washington, and this may have contributed to the below average conditions as well.

Informative details on history of viagra confirm that the anti-impotency drug Viagra was actually developed by researchers with the purpose of curing angina but incidentally during clinical trails, the drug was found effective in treating erectile dysfunction in men. With clinical results demonstrating the powerful effects of Viagra in triggering off erections necessary for sexual intercourse,impotency afflicted worldwide opted for the medication and the viagra phenomenon also offered suitable assistance to them in countering erectile dysfunction. Slowly and gradually Viagra has developed a deepest level of relationship with men which has further led to an indelible association between viagra and sexuality. And right now viagra and erectile dysfunction related tidbits are popular throughout the world and erectile dysfunction afflicted men worldwide are administering Viagra under medical supervision.

Posted by: VegasJunky at August 13, 2006 09:39 PM

I do that too, just sometimes... not fold. When you're doing it you remember all the times when you made the right play by folding and would have gone on to win the hand. And everyone has a suckout story that keeps them doing it too. In AC last weekend, one hand after folding 3s that would have boated on the river, I kept ducks on a flop of KK8, turned twos full and just about doubled my stack that hand.

Anyways, beats, bad or otherwise are never fun. I feel your pain. Best of luck in the next event!

For some poker related Humor... ever been to www.billfillmaff.com? I highly reccomend it.
