2024 World Series of Poker May 28th to July 17th ***No Spoilers***
The 2024 WSOP will take place at Horseshoe Las Vegas and Paris Las Vegas from May 28 to July 17, 2024, with the Main Event running from July 3 to July 17. The Main Event – poker’s undisputed freezeout world championship – will have four starting days, beginning on Wednesday, July 3. Players may also register directly on Day 2.
Ofc it depends on one's skill sets of playing deep and short, but if there is a significant overlay, i even late reg the highest buy-in games of my schedule.
14 left with 12 places paying in the $250K. I recognize Ivey, Ausmus, and Hunichen left. Probably some of the others are big time GTO types.
Mateos is one of the popular picks for best NLHE tournament player on the planet right now.
I'd like to see Ivey make a deep run and grab more POY points. He has a chance to win it this year if he can finish strong.
He doesn't have a banner anywhere at the WSOP, which just feels wrong.
My favourite tourny to watch the PPC starts today, coverage on PokerGo starts tomorrow night from Day 2 onwards
Since PokerGo gets, rightfully, called out when they miss out on a great table and tourney to stream, I give them kudos for today. Whereas the day 3 of the $250K was on yesterday's schedule to begin at 8 pm EDT today, they've moved up the starting time by 3 hours in order to capture the bubble play for easily the biggest bubble at the WSOP (>$500K). Looking forward seeing how the ultra high stakes pros handle such a gigantic bubble.

Shouldn’t they handle it just like any other bubble if they were indeed super pros?

I expect that a $500K bubble might impact the decision-making of a subset of those left, at least a bit, relative to a much, much smaller bubble, say around $20K for a $10K buy-in. Some pros have said as much in interviews after bubbling super high rollers, talking about how much it hurt.

Wouldn't think translate to bubble play being much tighter and thus, not as interesting/fun to watch? Plus, don't a lot of these guys sell considerable pieces of themselves? Bubbling a 250k where you only have 50% of yourself is right on par with bubbling a 100k that you have 100% of yourself, no?
Does anyone know if the main event will be 10 handed on 1D this year?
Driving out tomorrow for some WSOP action!
Question - do you guys think my SUV is big enough for all the bracelets and cash I’ll be bringing home or should I bring a trailer, too?
Also, are they still doing 10-handed on the big field tournaments or did they show mercy this year and bring them down to 9?

I'm liking Charlie Hook, who's a new player to me. He's very talkative and forcing some of the quiet ones like Tollerene and Ivey to engage.
Ben T is shitting out left and right. lol
Ivey :(
Mateos, probably current number 1 on form, goes from overnight chip lead to out in 10th , shame not to have seen more HH though bust hand did look pretty standard cooler!

From watching Triton even the high roller pros seem to be affected by the stakes in the biggest events. Frequently see extremely nitty ranges (more so than ICM itself dictates) on the bubble. Which makes having a big stack on the bubble extremely lucrative.
WTF just happened to Mateos? is there some sort of dynamic that between him and Bttec we don't know about. Looking at HH if he fold to Ben river shove he would still have around 8-9 Millions left.

Don’t forget your wheelbarrow
SB vs BB. Villain open preflop, lead flop and turn, shove river.
I think if villain has an over pair or Ax he would check call river instead of shoving.
If you are in Mateos position holding QT and no T hit the river what are you doing against a shove?
Honest question what are you doing holding AT, QT, KT against a shove if a blank card hit the river?
