yeah ds was just saying he needed the late slot thursday but it sounds like it works anyway.

Get those registrations in!

[EmpireMaker]

OK guys let's get this done today !!! RonPaul you are up at 1PM Best of Luck !!!!

[Blax0r]

Day three, game on guys!

Also, I like the idea of DownSouth as our closer.

[yisman]

I don't feel like I played badly earlier this week, but today I screwed up. Misread two hands, one by ireland and one by enkhbat, and got bounced.

Not feeling good.

Had AK once and everyone folded preflop, winning me the small blind. Had KK once and made a few hundred out of that, but not enough. Hands weren't hitting much, but I could've at least finished second I think had I played better.

Don't sweat it; just play your game man. I think almost everyone here has been knocked out (or severely crippled) by you at some point (including myself more than once); get'em tomorrow!

[downsouth]

Blax, you wanna play at 8 tonight and me play at 7?

[Blax0r]

I just switched to 8pm; feel free to take the 7 slot.

[downsouth]

good deal. Thanks

[frankzig]

the cards dealt have been terrible, hopefully things turn

[yisman]

Things looking very bleak. Hopefully we can at least beat world out for third place.

I can play 12, 1, 2, 3, or 4 tomorrow

Let me know if you want me to try a different time.

[yisman]

Today has simplified things. There's a battle for first and a battle for third. The goal is to outpoint Team World the rest of the way.

[downsouth]

wow, well, I hit a gut two outer on turn to make straight after being all in and lose to the lone remaining 9 in the deck when the guy makes quads.

Today was just not our day.

[yisman]

Today was just not our day.

Understatement. This would be historic if the Ryder Cup wasn't three days old. Nevertheless, it's quite a feat.

Just amazing how Europe and Canada absolutely cleaned up.

[Blax0r]

Let's go out with pride on the last day.

Scheduling stuff: 7 or 8 only still.

Nice job tonight, You got the 7 tommorow and I got the 8. Will probably be getting home right at 8

And hopefully by some miracle of miracles I will be playing for something meaningful.

Good Luck tommorow guys

[yisman]

We're only one back of world, guys. We can definitely do this. Register, show up, and do what you can.

Unless someone says differently, I think we're going with:

12: frankzig
1: RonPaul
2: yisman
3: Bob Loblaw
4: EmpireMaker
5: DevilCheese
6: Branchdavidian
7: Blax0r
8: downsouth


Also, since Lou has apparently joined Team USA, maybe he can help me out in the 2 PM

[EmpireMaker]

I think Canada got 11 points today, anything can happen !!! Let's get all we can guys !!!

[yisman]

I feel like this thread helped the other teams, because no one was started a planning thread until I made this one. Oh well.

[yisman]

*shakes head*

Let the team down. Today I really think I played well, but it didn't go my way. One hand I could've folded to a raise after the turn, but I had two shots at the straight and was pot-committed.

Finally eliminated when QK ran into AJ and the ace hit.

Don't shoulder the blame; it was a tough tourney for everyone on team USA. Also, 4-man SNG is very different from the regular tourneys (although I'm not sure exactly how).

Let's try to unseat World for 3rd!

[yisman]

It is different and I should've tried to learn strategy on how to alter play.

We're still not out of it for third, although of course now it's a longshot due to world doing well today.

I'd like to root the team on but I'm off to that wedding I mentioned. Hopefully they have alcohol.

Have a good one, and hope to see you on next year's Ryder (if they have it)!

[EmpireMaker]

we have a shot for a nice rally right here Bob is playing great I am determined to win and we have solid players all the way out !!!!

[yisman]

thanks Blax, see you around. I did get contact with some guys I didn't know very well thanks to Ryder Cup.

Bob has a decent shot here. Roxxxy finished last.

[yisman]

Good job. Bob gets the win. Unfortunately, world finished 2nd.

[EmpireMaker]

Bob owned that table today

[yisman]

Empire picks up a point and now we're within 1. Back to where we began the day.

Four tournaments left to beat World by one point to at least tie them.

Go DevilCheese.

Branch still has to register. And with that, I guess I'm out for the day. Back around midnight or so to see what happened.

[EmpireMaker]

I kept not playing hands with csmkr to keep him in to knock out the world then I'm down 2-1 in chips to him and get allin pre AQ vs A9 and he catches a 9 on the river. We are only 3 points out of second this can easily be done !!!!

[EmpireMaker]

only 3 out of second

[EmpireMaker]

don't give up so easily yisman

[Blax0r]

Great game Empire! Keeping canada and world out is just as important as your point won! Tough outcome though; you had him dominated on that hand. I know I would've played it the same way.

Let's go for 2nd!

[Blax0r]

Probably you guys already figured this out, but we don't need to worry *too* much about keeping Euro "alive" for 1st/2nd.

Thanks specifically to EmpireMaker's efforts, we can just focus on trying to get #1 to clinch 2nd place.

[Blax0r]

Nice job tonight, You got the 7 tommorow and I got the 8. Will probably be getting home right at 8

And hopefully by some miracle of miracles I will be playing for something meaningful.

Good Luck tommorow guys

Well it's not for 1st place, but we can potentially be 1)tied 2nd, 2)win 3rd outright, 3)tie for 3rd, or 4)get 4th. Definitely meaningful; close it out ds!
