Live: WPT Fallsview $4 Million+ Prize Pool
Coles Notes: Interest list for ~$8,600 worth of WPT FPC entries.
Interest list for a BAP for ~$8,600 worth of entries during the WPT Fallsview Poker Classic on February 18-24, e.g., $1100, $2500, $5000 events, $1,050 & $550 satellites. Fallsview is my second most profitable casino.
I had three top two finishes in sold-out casino tournaments on December 8, 9 and 19. At the Fallsview tournaments, I had a hot streak of winning all the satellites I played during TWO consecutive days in December. Another hot streak has started this month as I have won all the satellites I played on February 1, 2 and 7, including another $5,000 Main Event entry!
Selling at ~1.13 MU, so
$485 - 5%
$195 - 2%
$97.50 - 1%
$49 - 0.5%
$25 - 0.25%.
I prefer to sell to people I know or have played with (or that can be vouched for by somebody like compuease). I plan to sell not more than 50% of my action (including swaps).
While buying a piece of me obviously won't get you any money from swappers, I will be swapping with winning players, with the idea that just like I helped the last WPT Fallsview millionaire champion for the entire day of the TV final table, I will have a winning team behind me. The players that I think I will be swapping with are currently at WSOP-C Tunica (to try to qualify for the WSOP National Championship), WPT Florida, or the Aussie Millions Main Event. I was able to contact a player who has four final tables in the Fallsview events, including a >$100,000 cash, :cool: and he agreed to swap 5% on whichever events we both end up playing.
I plan to use my new iPad Air Cellular to blog about the excitement of Canada's #1 poker event exclusively to my investors (subject to any casino restrictions). The priority of course is to maximize EV, but let me know what kind of things you want me to try to include in my blog besides the following to maximize the "sweat equity": event stats, number of cash game and satellite tables, prop bets, credit card roulette, end-of-day shenanigans, & incriminating photos & videos on my iPad.
Does anybody know of a better app than Facebook to post updates to a list of names?
I will be responsible for tips. For example, if/when I cash big in any WPT Fallsview event, I plan to tip the maximum $200 merchandise allowed to as many dealers as I can from my winning share, not from investors. Please let me know what percent you want to invest (no sending money yet).

Comments
My biggest edge seems to be in satellites, so just like a couple of cash game specialists that I know switched from buying into the events next week to grinding the 5/10+ cash games instead, I'm wondering if I should just continue grinding the non-stop SNG and super satellites next week. For example, if I do a BAP to directly buy into seven $1,050 satellites instead of the $5K+$2.5K events, I think my EV will be higher. I won ALL the satellites that I played on February 1, 2 and 7, then I won another $5,000 Main Event entry yesterday! :cool:
So interested BAP investors will have to be flexible and know that I will try to do whatever will maximize EV/ROI next week.
To each their own.
I'm willing to still purchase this, but if it's a no go, I'd prefer to know now, so I can invest elsewhere.
1) Some poker rooms force you to play the first satellite seat won, then gives you cash for any subsequent wins. This would be my #1 choice.
2) Some rooms force you to play the first, then gives you tournament dollars for subsequent wins, e.g., PartyPoker.
3) WSOP Rio and Venetian gives you tourney lammers that you can use to buy into any tourneys, or can usually sell at full value.
Satellite winners at Fallsview can incur the biggest losses than all the other poker rooms above, e.g., players who are unable/unwilling to go on to the next step and are sometimes forced to sell their $550, $1,050, $2,500 or $5K entries at a HUGE percentage below face value.
If you're on the interest list but not my Facebook friend yet, please email or PM me your Facebook name and I will try to start giving real-time updates next time I'm at Fallsview. No obligation to be on the list & no need to send money until the weekend when I can finalize the details as much as I can, then I will contact you.
PM'ed you with Facebook info.
I'll accept BAP payments or confirmations until the noon start of today's event with $630,500 prize pool.
I'll play the +EV $275 super satellite tomorrow at 3 PM so that will be part of the BAP. Considering playing the $550 and/or $1,050 SNG satellites that are trying to be run in the Grand Ballroom.
Will email a more detailed trip report later. If I don't have your email yet, please PM to me.
Just do what I do, cause I'm always using my phone in between hands when the dealer is shuffling or counting down the cards. When they tell me to not use it, I just tell them I'm trying to cheat with my phone while the dealer is shuffling.
- One 10/25
- Nine 5/10
- Four 2/5
- One 5/5 PLO
- I didn't see a single satellite run in the poker room!
