Hi everyone
I"m playing several events in the WCOAP, and am opening up half of my buy ins as a staking opportunity.
The events I intend to play are:
April 16: Mixed Game £55 BOUGHT IN
April 17: Antes Only £55 BOUGHT IN
HORSE £55 BOUGHT IN
April 18: Shootout £55 BOUGHT IN
Six Max £55 BOUGHT IN
April 19: Main Event £110 BOUGHT IN
April 20: PL Omaha £55 BOUGHT IN
April 21: Heads Up £55 BOUGHT IN
Total buy ins = £495
For ease, will just make this £500.
Therefore 5% = £25
10% = £50
20% = £100
Any events not played will obviously be refunded.
And the reason I"m not charging mark up is as follows:
Hey all, most of you know me as the fat ginger that gets lucky and takes most of your chips, I can live with that.
Others as Bane from Team Gotham!
I am hoping to change that and just be the ginger that gets lucky and takes most of your chips.
I have been giving a chance to fulfil a dream and run in the 2014 Virgin Money London Marathon.
I have been given a place by www.action.org.uk please visit their website to see the incredible work that they do as my words will not do them justice.
Obviously this blog is primarily to raise money for Action, I truly believe that they are a worthy cause.
My just giving page is http://www.virginmoneygiving.com/DwayneStacey both I and Action would be extremely grateful for any donations.
I"m very supportive of Dwayne in this cause, and for the "mark up", 10% of the total cashes that are made will be sent to the above charity ( anything below £50, I will personally make up, therefore if I cash for nothing, I will put in the £50), anything over, the charity gets a bonus. The 10% will come out for the charity, the 1% to APAT, and the rest divided as per the staking, ie, I will get 50%, the rest divided by whatever stake people have.
I have already had 20% reserved, so have 30% of this action remaining. Payment preferred by bank transfer/cash so I can buy in online in advance, but will take some on stars if needed. I have already bought in to the HORSE, antes only and mixed game, and want to buy into the rest asap.
Thanks in advance :)

Event 1 report
Got into a huge pot in level 2 of Omaha, flopping nut straight, holding all the redraws to improve the straight ( which I did) but lost to 2 pair hitting a house. Dropped as low as 2k, built back to 23k. Raised with QQxx get 2 callers. J45 flop, I cbet the majority I have left, get called? Turn is a J. He obv has J 10 7 6. I have the flush draw too. Hit it, with the 6h. To give him the house!

Antes only
Great fun this was. At the crucial time ran bad, ended up shoving 44 into AA with 19 left. All pretty standard really
Horse
With the structure, I decided to play tight and premiums. Which is why by level 2 I had 5k!! Pulled it all back, then in one crucial pot in stud hi, I raise with J showing, with J8 under, called by the low card showing a 2. I hit 8 on 4th street, he hits the K. It all goes in. He had k2 under! We don"t improve :(
-
Not only did the K2 knock you out, he is one of your backers ;D. To be fair Sean went on to finish 4th

I did have a long post done for the shooutout/6 max but needless to say as I was completing the final sentence I lost the lot.
Shootout ... got in A7 on a 3456 board vs 33 and lost - the only hand I actually played
6 max - got down to the last 30 - splashed about early, got rewarded doubling AA v JJ, then won a chunk more with 4d 6d vs KK. With 40 left get a good double up with 97 in the bb, flop 8 6 5. That put me over 70k, then lose 50k next hand AA < Q10. Then last hand, there"s an UTG raise and a call in the sb ( to 3500 at 800/1600), I shove Ac Qc initial raiser folds, sb calls 44.
Main event - Play as well as I have in a while, picking spots well. Get to a high of 35k at the first break. First 4 hands after the break AK, JJ, AA, KK, lose 5k in those 4 hands with AA losing to KK ( 7 hi flop, KK gets there on the turn). Also have to tank fold JJ on a J8710x board which cost approx 8k. Eventually move tables, then get AA v 42 and lose that at 400/800 leaving 7k back. Double up twice to get back over 30k, then just look for spots on another new table with loads of chips on. Eventually, in the first 10 mins of level 13, find Ah Jh in early position, shove, get called by QQ, 1st card Q.
Omaha - A good start without playing well, double up with AAxx vs KKxx with the KK very draw heavy, hitting, and then I rehit for a full house. Lose a cooler with approx 23 left, leaving me short with 13k, and get moved tables to sit next to a 300k stack! Found the right spot to get it in, with KKxx, up against Paulie who"d raised the button with AKxx, flop A22 and I"m drawing pretty dead.
HU - Played a very aggro player, and it took me a while to adapt. Dropped to 2.5k, battled back to just above 5k, then 2 key hands, raise A10 and called, flop was Qxx, I c bet and he shoved, so had to fold. Next hand, I get K9, he raises, I shove, he snaps with KK.
A great run in most events, playing for tons of hours, for $0. No return unfortunately, so I owe £50 to the charity, which I will pay on Friday.

As promised, £50 donated to the charity today
