Nice link fo the USPC playing at the Taj. http://news.pokerpages.com/index.php?option=com_simpleblog&task=view&id=2634
First off, the USPC is trying to shop the filming that they are doing at the USPC. There was talk of no filming and I think a lot of players didn't want to come or went to Aruba just because of the filming. There is talk from the crew that Fox Sports or GSN will pick the event. Tons of great players.
I made it 4 days in the USPC after winning a super satellite that monday morning at 4:30am. I'm tired but happy but I also can hardly stand. It's just too long of a day for me. I played a super super satellite. My game plan was to play premium hands or ultra cheap flops which worked for the satellite. In the main, Gavin Smith and I mixed it up about 10 times with me as I kept hands that paid of and Gavin called almost every time as I winning 9 of them. Just a nice run on day one. I was able to reach 70K in chips by day 2 and then I went card dead for most of day 3 playing very few hands. Figured if I had a hand, I'll raise 3 times the blind and I had Jeff Madson at my table with a huge stack so I had to mind my p's and q's since he and another player where just reraising everyone. Noticed that Jeff liked to just toss 3 times the blind and when he was stealing(the table was tight other then the other player) he'd just sort of toss the chips in a loose way of the wrist.
I pushed all in for 17K in chips with K/10. Jeff goes, at least I've got live cards. No he doesn't as he turns over 10/3 suited. But he has hope as he flops a flush draw. He bricks out and I double up. Cliff Josephy asks me how I knew he didn't have anything....
I really go card dead and finally hit AA with only 4100 and I go all in. I get 4 callers that check the flop but on the turn, one of the players bets 20K and everyone folds. He has a pair but I take down the pot.
