VEGAS & WSOP update thread DAY 3

[kosar]

at the break jack has $138,800

avg chip count is $131,000 so he is back above average.

they have decided to play another level for 2 hours then a 20 minute break and then another level of 1 hour.

jack would think that would be bringing it down to 500 or less, has no idea why ....

sooooo,the next update will be in approx. 2 hours and 10 minutes

He just called here as well. Nothing really new beyond what IE said, but he's happy they're playing on, despite their announcement earlier that they would stop around 600. Says it will be less people to deal with in the coming days. He sounded somewhat tired, but definitely determined to get to tomorrow. I think he'll make it!

Great job Jack! :thumb:

If you keep this up, I might have to come out and join the fun.

Just keep playing your game, and trust your instincts.


IE,

Thanks for the updates.

 

[BobbyBlueChip]

They were only supposed to go down to 600 today.

Probably trying to limit the 4 am nights later in the week.

Keep on' keepin' on!!

Been out all day. Spent the last half hour reading this entire thread. I was just living and dying with the roller coaster ride that Jack has had today!

Glad to see that Jack is in the money and kicking tail!

Go Jack Go!!!

Thanks to all the phone correspondents and floor guys for the "live" updates.

I wish Jack could just go ahead and win it tonight, that way I won't get fired next week for missing work from staying up all night. I can't believe, I'm watching stupid ass Timecop and hitting refresh like a retard.

Jack reported at break that tourney officials said they needed to "go late" one night and decided this is the best one 'cause of the day off before it...

Spectator options bad. Jack was still down asle that they allowed no spectators. Ctown got friendly with person at feature table who knew security that gave ok for him to stand there.

After break Ctown then followed Jack in acting like a player himself and got thru. I stood at head of spectator line 30 mins before they let some of us in.

Now they allow 6 people down that asle Jack was at. I saw Ctown there earlier, but not now. My cell batteries dead and can't call (Ctown's low too). Wifi network I was using by tourney room off air also. Now down corridor by Starbucks using another unsecured network still up here.

As I left, spectators could get in without wait, but not much to see as nearly all confined to main asle only. Can't see Jack from there and don't know why Ctown not there any more. I gotta go and get cell charger now.

next break is at 1:01 am PST

I just made myself 15 minutes late for work reading this, but it was worth it.

Keep going Jack, real deep!!!!

 

[Woodson]

3:13 Est so Paific time that's another 6 pack at least... c'mon Jack!

 

[BOHICA]

Now I know I am up too late.

I am watching the biography channel, and they have a commercial for "Guys Gone Wild" video. WTF!!!!

I am here to support Jack, and hope he keeps kicking ass, but seeing that commercial hurt my brain.

Yak, you may not be the only retard. lol
