Got this email at the start of the week. I filled out a 2 page word file filled with questions about my personal life, job, and poker history and also sent them a still photo of myself. Now I play the waiting game again.
Today I skipped online donkaments and went to play live instead. They had a $550 at River Rock. What surprised me was that they also ran a super satellite to the Main Event of the BC Poker Championships (which starts next week). They had a sign on their desk that said that cash games were to be stopped at 11:30 in favor of tournaments and would then resume once there were free tables. I can’t believe they actually stopped cash games to accommodate donkaments.
90 players for the $550, 9 places paid, >$15k for 1st. Not bad. Nice structure too: 15k chips, 30 min blind levels. There were huge antes which would have been great if I got more spots to push. I ended up busting ~27th with JJ. Shoved 12bb in EP and lost a flip to AQ.
Late next week we’re going to be playing the $550 of the BCPC. I didn’t bother satelliting into either of the other events because they just don’t work with my schedule at all. Too bad.
Tomorrow is another Sunday of doom. This week went by amazingly fast for me…
