my backer says i have to play in every circuit this year and play 1 event each day.makes it a little tough on me.i havent been to iowa lol and havent travled much more than tampa.i live in miami so this is a long flight and im going alone.seems scary.im just nervous to be honest.120.00 isnt that much when the hotel cost that much and my cash games will be 100.00 buy in but his whole purpose is to see if i can handle playing everyday and keep a solid mind.
im also going strght from iowa to las vegas for the first time for 3 days 27th-29th free trip though than vegas to miami back home.hopefully i cash thats my whole goal.cash 1 event even for 150.00 lol just cash.
i would like to know if any one else is going.so im not alone lol.these tournys will only have like 500-1000 players max so i am def hoping i can win.i need to study the structures. -

Good lord your backer is messed up in the head. Iowa is small as hell...how can it be scary when you live in Miami? I went there last year and it's, well, Iowa. Not much to see in the Plains. Being forced to play EVERY circuit event is just absurd. Not even playing the biggest buy ins there is a waste of a trip/life money/etc. Your costs for food, flight, and hotel aren't even worth playing for a 10k prize. I'd rather grind a daily full schedule online and maybe play a series for fun once in awhile, rather than fly my ass across the country all year playing live 120 buy ins. No offense, but the whole thing sounds stupid, and you sound like ur barely 18 :/

FWIW Wanta, the series is in August this year and not in the middle of winter like it was last year, and with revamped circuit shit going on, ppl might be more excited to play. But agree, doubt they get 1000 runners.

my backer is my uncles friend he regular plays the big slick down here in miami 1,500.00 event he put me in it twice in my life and im 1-1 i cashed in it making 4,600.00 1 time and he let me keep it all.very nice of him.he told me if i wanted to play the world series circuit and i said hell yeah and he gave me 5 rules
1.must play all events he tells me and buys me into.
2.must play the same amount for cash games.so if a 120.00 buy in i play 1-2 100.00 cash game if i lose.
3.no drinking
4.no other gambling such as bj slots or other than that.however ill be doing online sports betting since im so limited on my own dime.
5.must wake up and eat a solid breakfast before playing
the trip is about 3,500.00 if that so worse case we lose 3,500 and i know he wont be that mad.if i do good maybe ill get moved up to the 235.00 for october thats what im atleast hoping.im also looking to start building my roll since im under 5,000.just very excited on this trip and just want to see what happens.
im just excited honestly to be playing in this.if i can run good and make a final table ill be happy as hell.it wont be for more than 10k but still a win is a win.

Gl man I was just joking bro. I would take that opportunity anytime. Do you have to pay for your flights or is he covering you on this to?
5.must wake up and eat a solid breakfast before playing

I'm still wondering if I'm missing something. Aren't the $150 events like the evening second chance events with the horribad structure? You're not even going to be playing the daily main events? Definitely not worth the trip if this is the case.

he is paying everything flight hotel taxi food and everything.if i win i give him 70 percent i get 30 percent and stake back.thats what we got right now.this is a cheap trip he says becuase he sometimes plays poker in atlantic city and plays blackjack he says for fun at 100.00 a pop some nights.so i know if i lose everything ill be fine.all he asked is for me to play my best and tell him how i feel after the week is over.120.00 isnt a high mtt at all and i honestly want to be at 235.00 for october with a clear mind.this is what i want honestly.i will also be playing online as much as possible becuase my roll online is really low.im just looking for all the support i can get and advice on playing these such tournys.so many players ive read made it from playing the circuit like dennis phillps and darvin moon and im just hoping its my time to shine.im not asking to make it to the big leagues i just wanna be able to play year round and have a solid bankroll.
what do you mean meta im not playing the 1,600 main event no im only playing the 120.00 buy ins except for a 235.00 horse also 100.00 nl cash games why what is wrong with the structures.if i may ask.
yeah the 7pm tournys the night ones what is wrong with these. -

If he's only playing the 2nd chances, 700PM's, then they will def have less than 200 runners.Originally Posted by bef99hwk

i dont expect alot of players in the turnys im playing like 200 or less except for the horse i expect 500 in that one but i think 10 or 15 percent cash so 200 players 30 cash right or am i understand this wrong
sorry like 180 mans 18 cash 1st place is still like 5k or so right -

I'd expect like 50ish tops for the HORSE tourney. The only HORSE tourney I've played live had 35 runners and the average age of the field had to be 50 something, just a heads up for the target demographic. They only paid 5 players and the prizepool wasn't worth the 1 hour drive to play in it.

so lets say 220 players 26k prize pool 1st place should be over 5k easily and the field should be soft.
yeah i still want to know why the 7pm tounrys are worse than the others. -
