[taoist]

Kick some ass tomorrow, Jack!!! :SIB

Be patient and pick your spots accordingly. We have faith in you, boss!!! Best of luck....

 

[DIRTY Diapers]

wow - nice paycheck no matter what happens...

 

[MadJack]

thanks IE. last night i had drinks with nolan and ctownguy at the rio and nolan asked me if i would sell my seat for 100k. HELL YES, NOLAN! of course nobody would offer me that and im sure it isnt permitted but nolan thinks it would be a mistake because 100k wouldnt really change my life any but winning the ME would drastically change my life and i may never get a chance like this ever again. maybe he's right, so i'll let him know between tomorrow and next thursday

there's still a LOOOONG way to go and i stay cautiously optimistic about this thing. there's no thrill like this. a great opportunity doing something i have loved for 40 years. playing poker. wow.

thanks for all the support im getting from you guys.

btw, nolan had pokerstars make me some really nice golf shirts. they are black with stitched white writing with pokerstars on one tit and "madjack sports - the number one handicapping forum on the net" on the other side. THANKS NOLAN, very much appreciated.

also, nolan set up between madjacksports and pokerstars a huge surprise that i will announce in the next week or so after getting all the details finalized. thanks for taking the time away from the tourney last night, nolan, you're a class guy!

......the ME would drastically change my life and i may never get a chance like this ever again.....


I'll bet you will be there again. You seem to win those online things, and you sure seem to have the discipline in the real deal to wait out the dummies.

It seems more like a blackjack event, where you stay in the weeds as long as you can, and let the "quick shots" lose their wad........sure, someone is reaping that money, but you are moving up spots, while picking up small gains.

Maybe it's good that you haven't "gotten any cards"? You could have been busted with a great hand, and only had a story by now!

Good luck Friday!

 

[hawkeye]

Smack um buddy--do us proud! GL

 

[ajoytoy]

stay focused and kick some butt Jack

just remember we are all rooting you on!

sure hope you are still playing there on my birthday (the 10th)

 

[blgstocks]

stay focused Jack, know that we are all behind you, and oooooweeeee i cant wait for the big surprise

 

[SpursDynasty]

one hand at a time!

you can do it.

 

[BADTODABONE]

again....


That for should!!!!

 

[ageecee]

If i read this right 286 players would have to bust out for jack to get a payday.

i think it looks good for jack since you know the low stacks will be going all-in the first good hand they get tomorrow.

 

[RollTide72]

Like everyone else, gonna be pulling hard for you tomorrow and into next week! Get a good night's sleep and stay positive. The cards WILL start coming.

 

[MadJack]

went down to the bar and had 5 drinks. this will help me sleep soon and better with no shot at a hangover. i'm going to order a movie in about an hour and that will definitely put me to sleep. i figure on sleeping from about 11-7am which is plenty for me.

next goal - make the money
next goal - make it through tomorrow.

not thinking about any other goals at this time.

thanks guys. this is a dream

 

[Big Daddy]

Good luck Jack!!! We've never met, but really pulling for you. :toast:

 

[The Judge]

thanks for all the support im getting from you guys.

:thumb: You got it, Jack.

Bring it home!

 

[BobbyBlueChip]

next goal - make it through tomorrow.

You're already in the money - You're too stubborn to get knocked out before that.

Get through the day!!

Lookin' forward to hearing your recap tomorrow night

Jack,
Great strategy/goals! I have resisted the urge(strong I might add :shrug to suggest just that :scared .
And, I actually typed out in one of my other replies to just let the table go around one time, with NO plays on your behalf, and to let all the "Jitterers" work themselves out of a payday :SIB . Then I hit the backspace button......... :mj07:
Oh well, once an arm-chair QB, always an arm-chair QB

Your are making us all proud!

GL.............

Franky

 

[MadJack]

gotta have goals in life and business and everything, it's the "key". set your sites high but have smaller goals to beat on the way to the main one as you knock off the smaller goals start setting your sites higher and higher.

thanks man.

 

[BOHICA]

Good luck is often with the man who doesn't
include it in his plans.


Give em hell Jack!
