It is amazing to me how someone gets knocked out on opening day given that blinds don't even reach 500/1000 by the end of day 1,

Blinds are 2 hours long, and they start at 25/50 I think, and you have 20k in chips, it is wild.....I wouldn't be seeing a pot unless I had 10's or better, late position, or big blind no raise the first day. Yet I have heard that at least 10 people get knocked out within the first 10 minutes of play at the main event....

Its not that easy man, do you not think the ppl putting up the 10k say that same thing before ? There are so many super aggresive players out there, including myself, that even if you only play your 10's or better, no one will respect your raise when you come into pots.... in my little 95 buy in friday night, i gained most of my chips with q 4 diamonds.... flopped a flush, guy with aces moves all in, says to me " i know you have a diamond " i say sorry i have 2.....
you have to play hands to win.

Turns a blank, and the river is a brick, and he takes the hand down. He then proceeds to take the whole thing down, mowing over multiple opponents by merely looking at them and extracting important information through table talk..

i flopped the flush won a big pot, went to around 30 players with over 90 k in chips and ****ed it all up.

im sitting on around 94k.... blind are 1k-2k.... 29 players left, i get delt q 10 hearts..... no one raises, 4 in the pot. it comes king jack hears, 2 spades. i have a open ended royal flush draw.... this lady bets out 6k the other 2 fold, i raise 25k, she goes all in for 60k, i call.....she has a k, turn is a queen. now im drawing to a queen, ten, ace, nine or any heart.... river is a 3 spades.... that hand crippled me, put me to under 30. with high blinds and antees

Man, that is freakin' AWESOME!!!
Dude, the other day I was playing with some buddies and the strangest thing happened. I was the big blind and was dealt 9h-6c. The guy on the button raised 4x the big blind. I looked at my cards, saw the 9-6, and folded because it didn't seem like a very good hand. It turns out the guy that raised had pocket jacks, so I'm really glad I folded. Isn't that a cool story?

I'll probably be posting more fascinating stories like this in the days to come, but I might save the real juicy ones like this for the poker blog I'm thinking about starting.

ended up getting blinded out in 108th out of 1187. that's the most ever to play in a WSOP circuit event. didn't get any cards at all the last 4 hours.
not horrible for 1st time playing in a WSOP sanctioned event.
