UL Dave - WD on the cash
kaysing:
Thanks to those who railed, it makes a real difference to have the support. Finally finished 4th for $190.
Yes Leigh, 9 hours is a long time but I really enjoy the format. It would be perfect if there were deep stack games out there for higher buy-ins ($100 +). Although sites have an interest in rapid turnover, like most others I am playng other games along with the DS game.
Is there anyone else who feels the same about higher buy-in deep stack tournaments - if so perhaps we should push to get some put on.
Grateful for any info regarding online deep stack games that I haven"t picked up on. The main site I use is Stars (5000 chips, 30 min blind levels - $22 and $33 buy in). My main experience of other sites is that the tournies are shallower stacked and have shorter blind levels.
Once again thanks for the support,
Dave

Nowhere does deepstack as good as Pokerstars.
They used to have a $100 one but it seems they"ve replaced it with a $20 6 handed deepstack.

Okay, this tournament has been running for 9 hours now.
...
But 9 hours ? How can this be worthwhile ?

Don"t you enjoy playing poker?
Or do you only enjoy winning the money at the end of it?

I agree with you Dave. The deeper stacked games give you much more play. Most sites are driven around quicker tourneys and players are often looking at their ROI and hourly rates.
If you play poker for enjoyment and fun, then 9 hours is ..... what am I saying, you"re a lunatic :D Nice cash though.
If I remember rightly, i think Laxie won a deepstack last year. She was playing for 13 hours or something like that.
I think you are right, that if it were a bigger buyin, then there is more of a justification to play them.
I"ll keep my eyes out for more of them for you.
Nice result sir.
