68-tabling hypers

I was just bored while playing satellites for the Sunday Mil today and since the games were going off like crazy due to the $5mil guarantee, I wanted to see how many tables of Sunday Mil hyperturbos I could get going while still being able to play somewhat well.  I got up around 55-60 a few times then right before the Sunday Mil started I really went for it and registered for everything, and got up to 68 at one point:


























The screenshot doesn't show the last 10 or 15 tables because I couldn't make that window any bigger on my laptop.

It was probably kind of dumb to do this because I was misclicking a ton, although I don't think I ever timed out at a table.  Also I'm at the hotel in LA for the tournament and I don't have a backup computer if something were to happen.  But oh well, it worked out, and I made a little bit of money in the process.


Unfortunately I busted the actual Sunday Million tournament about 20 minutes into it in 48,711th place.  The tournament ended up getting nearly 60,000 entrants with a total prize pool of nearly $12 million and a first place prize of over $1.6 million plus a new Lamborghini Gallardo, which is all just so insane for a $215 buyin tournament.

I played day 1 of the Big Event at the Bike in LA yesterday and had a pretty good day, turning the starting stack of 30k into about 72k heading into day 2 tomorrow with the average stack at around 60k.

The most interesting hand of the day at least to me was towards the end of the day, blinds were 300/600 and 75 ante, it got folded around to the small blind who raised to 1600 and I called with 7h5d.  Flop came 872 all spades, he bet 2200 and I called.  Turn came J of clubs, and we both checked.  River was K of spades putting 4 spades on board, he bet 5k and I called pretty quickly, and my hand was good.  It's just one of those hands that looks kind of weird but when you think about it most people aren't value betting all that many hands and are going to be bluffing a lot on that river card.  The only thing that would have made me sick is if he flipped over something like 97 with no spade, but I didn't really think he'd be bluffing with a better hand very often, if at all.

Anyway we start again at noon tomorrow and I'll be updating on Twitter as usual.

  1. if you're misclicking a ton you're probably not playing well.... you might be a little out of practice (not that anyone ever should be able to play well while playing 70 tables at a time).

  3. So sick, do you use a hotkey to reg them all yourself or do you have some sort of program that auto reg's them. Having problems with reg'n the 18.75 hypers, I want something that just registers to them all.
