{moved from shnl}
My schedule sucks so I'm only playing the $550. I'm playing during tomorrow's version of Day 1.
Mark which Day 1 are you playing? I hope you play Saturday!
GL guys.
played and busted already today.
didnt the winner from the me last year get arrested for murdering someone..?!
:/
found the story on cbc
CBC News - British Columbia - Poker champ charged in Surrey 6 slayings
haha sick life
Anyone know of anywhere a person can check online to see who is still in the event and chip counts?
I doubt anyone is covering this event. FTR's maxxscam made it to Day 3 of the ME though! This is after he started Day 2 with one big blind. Epic comeback!
I would have been on mega tilt if I finished Day 1 with 1bb. I would have considered not showing up for Day 2 :P But after watching this sick comeback, I guess now I know why he went back. Epic.
Chris is ballin out, made the final 18 I believe!
yea Chris seems to play strong when short. Not so much 1bb short, but he has had some pretty big up and downs in a few tourneys and his career as well. Can't be sure, but I think he was almost busto just over a year ago.
Someone posted this live feed on his FB wall: http://www.facebook.com/l.php?u=http...poker1&h=22079
Doesn't really work since it only allows 52 viewers and is full
sickooo
Final table still short stacked
from 1 bb on day 2 to cl w/ 7 left, std
7-Handed Chip Counts: Chris Back 2.6M, Brian Henningson 1.55M, Eric Place 1.25M, John Himbury 1.1M, Benjamin Leblond 1.05M, Connor Allisen 800k, Afshin Majidi 450k
blinds are @ 25k/50k 5k
The man is a machine! Down to 6
They lifted the 50 person limit on the stream by the way
chris gets it in with AT vs QT on a Txx flop, Q on turn for 2.5 mill, would've had like 3.5 and massive cl, roughly 1/2 chips in play, down to 900k
Just knocked out in 6th, bummer
61K
GG chris
didnt see the thread dthorne just pointed it out to me, thanks guys, yeah was sickest comeback ever really felt like i shoulda won it was some very bad players at the final table, i never sucked out the whole tourney and never got aces in 4 days of play , was redic card dead for day 3 and 4 somehow made it work. gotta be happy with the reult but it still hurts. was never bankroll busto, but did have a 120k down swing or so about a year ago, but i wasw pretty smart with my money and put a bunch away when i made it during the moneymaker days, so i'm doin ok, even tho i should be ballin out if i didnt get fucked to a 2 or 3 outter in every major tourney i go deep in, wsop me, bcpc, wpt reno, apt manila, capt austria , caribean poker classic. lost chiplead pot in all of them to 2 or 3 outters with under 18 left well besides wsop me just lost back to back 2 outters to bust 123rd the year jamie gold took down 12 mill. im so bitter, gonna take a while to get overthis again. ;'(
1bb at start of Day2.. wow!! That's incredible!
Congrats!
