NYRPS Event #10 Results

Congrats to first-time NYRPS player juiceybear68, AKA djs1070 on the CP Forums, for taking down the biggest event in terms of Prize Pool of the series so far! I took 3rd (yet ANOTHER cash) and had 4 KO Bounties (the first 4 Final Table victims were done in by me). Champ took 2nd with another strong showing.

As LJ would say, Bridesmaid... Does that make me an Usher?

Not Too Bad, IMO. Combined with 27th in the 28K Guarantee (which LJ Bridesmaided last night) and I had a +1300 day. Tomorrow is Event #10 of the NYRPS:


Be Sure to come get some! It's a Double Stack tournament as well, so it's just like the Mookie, except with likely a smaller audience... But let's see if we can break the NYRPS record of 19!

-Kenny

2 Good Runs

Good Run #1 was in PokerStars' 20K Guaranteed. I was a Big Stack for most of the tournament, and used it ~well. I wound up in 26th Place for ~70 Bucks.

Good Run #2 was in The Mookie (Link to the Right). Was crippled to 190 in the first 20 minutes, but made a sweet comeback (including 77 > QQ vs the host himself) and was able to make the final table 7th in chips, then doubled up through Waffles with KT > A9 on a Q9x board (J on the turn). Tossed a hammer and hit (obv) to double up to the Chip Lead, then sorta floundered from there, then got slapped with the cold deck when TPTK and a turned FD ran into a turned straight. No Flush on the Riv and I took 4th Place for ~$60 + 1 KO ($2)

I want LOTS of promotion for the 3 big events in the NYRPS. The first one is next Tuesday, the $13 KO. The other two are the 2 $26 events: HORSE and NLH.

See Y'all There

Another Double Cash

I Hit the Double Cash AGAIN on Friday Nite. Took 28th in B, and barely made the money in A.

Today I'm playing the Sunday Million for the First Time, and it's the largest Sunday Mill ever. GL 2 me!

Also playing the 750K on FT, along with the usual tournaments.

-Kenny

Almost a Final Table...

But Almost doesn't count except in Horseshoes and Hand Grenades. 12th place is still a good score, but the way I was playing (and running), I felt I should've taken it down. My final hand, I was ~7th in Chips with ~18BBs, and I made my standard raise from the Button with A-J sooted. 3rd in Chips was in the SB, and he Shoved with 5-5. I called, and If i win this race, I take the Chip Lead with 12 to go.

Flop: 3-2-7 Rainbow. D'oh. I need an Ace, Jack or Running Straight...

Turn: A of Diamonds. WOOOOOOOOT Ship It.....

River: 4.... BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

I'll Get 'em Next Time.

NYRPS Event #7 Results

It was Champ in '07! Er, Event 7 that is. pureprophet AKA ChampSampson from the CP Forums takes down the PL Hold 'Em Event in the NYRPS. I cashed (surprise!) in second place, and Didace, blogger playing his first NYRPS, avoided the carnage and snuck into the 3rd place spot, suffering a sick beat to go out in 3rd (KK < K8 vs Champ).

Next Week is Heads-Up Shootouts. Let's try for an even 16! However, I don't know if we'll have the Free Byes that FTP was able to ~fix lately. We might have the Loretta Heads-Up problem. So if we get exactly 8 or 16 (or 32!), there won't be a problem.

We'll probably have 4 payouts if we get 9 or more players this time around!

<~~~~~~ Goin' Deep in the 32K. Hopefully there will be a post about it later tonight!

NYRPS Event #7: Pot Limit Hold 'Em

The 7th Installment is Tomorrow Nite! Pot Limit Hold 'Em, Password = epicfail, 9PM ET, etc.

Can (and will) jl131 Defend his title? Will Loretta join in from Vegas? Will my Point Lead Hold Up? SANDRARENE IS IN!?!?!?!

This looks to be really good!

Remember Bloggers: The NYRPS Main Event is 7 weeks away: With a $26 buy-in, Double Stacks and most likely ~50-100 Entrants (If y'all advertise!), The Point Standings will have a massive shake-up!

-Kenny

Daily Double: Double Cash

For the second time ever, I double-cashed the Daily Doubles. I don't know exactly how much I'll be getting, but I don't think there were too many double cashers today (the turnout was low to begin with thanks to Independence Day). Also, I don't know if I had done enough to get Best Double Finish, which is about $600 no matter when you hit it.

Daily Double A- 107th, $16.99
Daily Double B- 37th, $28
Double Cash- $51.51
Spent: ($24)
Profits: $72.50

<~~~~~~~ Will Take It.

Back in the Schwing of Things

I had not been running well.

But last night I played 6 tournaments ($5 KO, $10 KO, $3 Turbo, 32K and Daily Doubles). I cashed 3 out of 6 ($10KO, 32K and DDB). Because I tokened into the 32K, My profits were ~$75. This Morning, I played a $10 45-man SNG to pass the time while I rake in FTPs at 1/2 HORSE. Finished 3rd for $72, then cashed out a $30 profit at the HORSE.

Had a small BBQ with Family for Fourth of July, rain spoiled it a little. Missed the 32K by 8 minutes (Got home at 8:08) Playing the DD's and a $10 KO Turbo SNG (the 90 man ones).

Hopefully a brag post tomorrow.

Whether or Not I play the MSOP Main Event is based on the Weather. If it's Nice Out, I'm going to a BBQ with more Family. If it's nasty out, I'm staying home and playing the MSOP Main Event.

Congrats to jl131 from CardPlayer Forums. His avatar there is the Yankee Logo. Very +EV in my (rigged) tournaments. I took second by building a big stack early (Busting Qwik_Draw with Nut Hi-Second Nut Lo) and playing tight enough from there on out. mondogarage cashes in the 3rd spot.
