I'm thinking of making a second try at the NYRPS. The first one was ~popular, and this second one should work fine as well.
First, I'm probably going to move it to Mondays at 10PM. The only reason I had NYRPS I on Tuesdays was because I thought MATH was more popular than Skillz. Well, MATH is no more, and Skillz is still around, so Mondays at 10PM ET (9PM BDT) is what I will aim for.
Of course I want to have Buddy Dank Radio Coverage of the Series, and that's why I have the 10PM Start time over the old 9PM Start time.
Anyway, here is the schedule I have in mind:
December 1: $11 No Limit Hold 'em (Double Stack)
December 8: $11 Mixed Omaha 8 (Double Stack)
December 15: $11 PLO (Double Stack)
December 22: $11 PL Hold 'em (Double Stack)
December 29: $11 Stud Mix
January 5: PLO Dime Rebuy (Turbo)
January 12: $11 Heads-Up NLH (Turbo)
January 19: $11 PL HA (Double Stack)
January 26: $11 HORSE
Febuary 2: $5 NLH One Rebuy, One Add-On
Febuary 9: $11 No Limit Hold 'em 6-handed (Double Stack)
Febuary 16: $11 PL Omaha Mix (Double Stack)
Febuary 23: $11 Limit Hold 'em
March 2: $11 PLO8 (Double Stack)
March 9: $11 Mixed Hold 'em (Double Stack)
March 16: NLH Dime Rebuy (Turbo)
March 23: $26 KO NLH (Double Stack)
March 30: Main Event: $33 NLH (Super Stack!)
Leave comments letting me know what you think. I will be on BuddyDankRadio tonight with the official "NYRPS II" Announcement.

5th in Mookie and NumbBlowMe TONIGHT
5th in the Mookie. I caught a firestorm of hands when we were down to 2 tables. Trying to chase KatieMother out of the tournament took me from monster to average stack. I stayed as the average stack throughout most of the final table, and I really only played 3 hands at the final table: The hand I knocked RaisingCayne out, A-7 >>> KQ and my final hand, where A-4 couldn't hit vs the ducks of Dumptruck.
Tonight is...
Here is what my predictions will be.
As of this writing, there are 48 people in. I think we will end with over 100.
100 x 50 rebuys each (approximate) = 5000 rebuys. that's 5 million chips. I'll set the Total Chip line at 5,000,000.
Here is what I think the Final Table will be.
1. CheckinmyAA- He has been on fire playing cash lately, and with the deep stacks this provides, it will be like a cash game. I like his chances.
2. NumbBono- It's his tournament. Of course he should make the FT.
3. NYRambler- Duh.
4- pvanharibo- Another Duh. She always wins
5. Lucko21- See pvanharibo
6. lilkimmer77- see Lucko21
7. sprstoner - see lilkimmer77
8. ugly chimp - the most underrated MTT player in this group
9. pushmonkey72 - he'll live up to his namesake the first hour, and he'll probably have around 1 million chips because of it. He can fold his way to the Final Table.
FTR, I don't wanna see this final table because I'm the weakest of the 9 players I listed. I'd much rather see guys like DukeMuscle, Mookie, Joanada... Tight players. Not a bunch of LAG-Tards.
I think the favorite to win the event is pvanharibo. But that's just my opinion. Waffles has his own opinions about this on his blog.
Tune in to BuddyDankRadio for live coverage of this event, as it plays out into the night!

$4K Guaranteed Final Table
After picking up a ton of chips early when a Nut Flush held vs. Top Set and Second Nut Flush, I sorta-kinda cruised to the Final Table. On the Bubble, I doubled up from 12BBs with Nut Full House vs. Trips. That was the last time I was All-In until my last hand.
This was what the Final Table looked like. FT Pro Andy Black was the FT Bubble Boy, as you can tell by the chat box.
About 5-10 minutes into the Final Table, I find A-A-5-3 with the nut spades. UTG Chip Leader raised 3x, and I potted him from the BB. He called, we took a flop of T-9-5 rainbow, I pot it and he shoves over. He might have me drawing slim with TT or 99, but I think QJ or KK is a more realistic possibility. I call, and he has KQTT. HGIOEHGIOEHG.
I get bounced in 8th place.
It did feel good to run so well in my 4th strongest game (behind NLH, Limit Hold 'em and Limit Omaha 8). The few times that I've played this tournament I seem to run pretty well.
And it also feels good to post about poker again. Also pulling off a Final Table tonight was Loretta8, who took third in the $20 1R/1A over on PokerStars for about $2000. And Lucko21 is back to his winning ways after taking down the $21K Guarantee on Full Tilt last night.
Tomorrow is The Mookie, and there seems to be a slight mistake this time around; It went from a $13 buy-in to an $11 buy-in. Basically it's $8 + $2 for the KO bounty + $1 rake. Hm.
And Thursday is the NumbBlowMe Dime Rebuy Tournament. Shove Every Hand in the first hour!

Atlantic City Trip Report
+$900.
Before I continue, I make a lot of -EV plays on the trip. Don't critique them.
Considering that I won $2200 on one hand, it doesn't look as impressive. Epic Ownage of Let It Ride on the First LIR hand of the day yesterday. Played $10 on each LIR spot, plus the $1 bonus, plus $10 on the Three Card Bonus (same payout as the Pair Plus on TCP). Dealt 9-9-9 for instant $300 return on Three Card Bonus and lookin' at some good scratch for the rest with my trips.
First Card turned up: 9c. SHIPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPP
$500 for each of the LIR bets = $1500
$400 for the $1 bonus bet = $1900
$300 for the $10 Three Card Bonus = $2200
Wheeeeeeeeeee.
Unfortunately, I dumped a lot of it back, some at the Poker Table, the rest playing Pai Gow, Black Jack and 3CP. Only profitable game other than LIR for me was Texas Hold 'em Bonus.
With my newfound monies, I should be back in ~full schwing online soon. I had to miss my first Mookie in over 4 months last night, and my first BDR broadcast in 2 months.
New blog added to the blogroll: the legendary LilKimmer77, FTOPS VIII's Omaha 8 champ. He'll have some nice brags, since he seems to take down a $75, $109 or $163 tournament every week.

The NumbBlowMe Tournament!
This will be very interesting.
In 2 weeks, Thursday, October 23, 2008, NumbBono, BuddyDank, Joanada and the rest of us at BuddyDankRadio is hosting a very special tournament called the NumbBlowMe. Of Course, Full Tilt censored it, so on Full Tilt it's called the NumbBlow. Sure.
The buy-in is 10 cents + $1 juice. Yep. 1000% Rake.
But there's gotta be a reason for this Madness, right? Of course there is!
It is a Rebuy Tournament, and the Rebuys are 10 cents each.
That's right. TEN CENTS. ONE DIME. TWO NICKELS.
Here it is in perspective.
Let's assume we draw 72 people to this tournament. If all 72 re-buy right away, the prize pool jumps to $14.40. Now there will be winners every hand, so there won't be 72 rebuys per hand, but let's assume that the average Rebuy Per Hand (RPH) is 4 per table (counting double rebuys). 8 tables for a 72 Player Tournament. And there are 60 hands in the Rebuy Period.
60x4 = 240. 240 x 8 = 1920. 1,920 Rebuys. Throw in the Add-ons and round it up for simplicity purposes... 2000 Total Buys + Rebuys + Addons. Thus only a $200 prize pool, but that's not the main point. The Main Point is shoving every hand and what will follow after the rebuy period.
2000 Buys + Rebuys + Add-ons. Let's assume all 72 Players add on. so 2000-72 = 1928. Times that by 1000, and you get 1,928,000. The Add-ons are 1500 chips, so 72 x 1500 = 108,000.
1,928,000 + 108,000 = 2,028,000. That's the total number of chips on the table. Divide by 72 and you get the Average Stack at the first break: 28,170 (rounded). The Blind Level when the rebuy period ends is 60/120. So the AVERAGE stack will have 235 Big Blinds.
Yikes. This might take a while.
But it will be guaranteed fun, that is for sure!
