RG, Naw. I watched the WSOP on ESPN last year where they showed the live play, - that is to say every hand as opposed to a few selected hands like they usually do, - and I know that I could never be that good. I don't even want to try. Too much work. I've been in the money in hundreds of online and brick and mortar tournaments over the years and I've found that I have just as much, if not more fun playing for low stakes. Fortunately I live in a free country, Costa Rica, where online poker isn't prohibited as it is in the States so I can do that. I used to play in the casinos here every night but the games didn't start until 9pm and didn't end until the wee hours of the morning. Now I get up at 6am every morning and do exercises. Much healthier life style. -RR -----Original Message----- >From: Ron George <xgeorge@xxxxxxx> >Sent: Feb 4, 2013 3:11 PM >To: sparkscoffee@xxxxxxxxxxxxx >Subject: [sparkscoffee] Re: Fw: Results for PokerStars Tournament 683695294 > >RR, > >Now that you're making the final table when are you going for the big bucks? > >RG > >On 2/4/2013 12:11 PM, Ron Ristad wrote: >> RG, >> Eat your heart out! >> >> -RR >> >> -----Forwarded Message----- >>> From: PokerStars Support <support@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx> >>> Sent: Feb 2, 2013 9:14 PM >>> To: ristad@xxxxxxxxxxx >>> Subject: Results for PokerStars Tournament 683695294 >>> >>> >>> PokerStars Tournament #683695294, No Limit Hold'em >>> Buy-In: $0.45/$0.05 USD >>> 90 players >>> Total Prize Pool: $40.50 USD >>> Tournament started 2013/02/02 20:50:55 ET >>> >>> >>> Dear ristad, >>> >>> You finished the tournament in 7th place.
