What route did you take to the final WSOP satellite?<\/strong><\/p>\n

I first played a $75 satellite, winning a ticket to a $750 satellite qualifier. I played that, and managed to finish top 4 out of 80 runners.<\/p>\n

Tell me how the final WSOP satellite went.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Had pretty easy sailing, guys bluffing when I had the nuts, picking good spots to pick up blinds and antes, etc.<\/p>\n

What key hands and big decisions did you have to make?<\/strong><\/p>\n

Well, my key hand wasn’t much of a decision, but it decided everything for me. We were 5 handed (5th got nothing, 4th got the seat), I was short stacked, with one other guy a little more than me. Everyone else was comfortably ahead of us.<\/p>\n

The other short stack min raised, I’ve picked up \u00a0in the SB. I decided to put the maximum pressure on him, and shove all in. He snap called, and showed [Ax][Ax]. I hit 2 clubs on the flop, and the flush on the turn. He was out a couple of hands later, and the 4 of us left won our seats.<\/p>\n

Tell me about your PartyPoker story.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Play in the biggest poker event! Win your WSOP Main Event $14,000 package for free!<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n

I originally started maybe 7-8 years ago, I was pretty green in the poker department. I didn’t start-up again on Party Poker until early 2010. Started playing PLO and NLHE tournaments, and have done quite well since my return. I have played mostly live cash and tournaments before that.<\/p>\n

Tell me how you feel about your Vegas trip.<\/strong><\/p>\n

I was extremely pumped to win this trip and I expect to come home with a good cheque, if not a bracelet.\u00a0Being from Western Canada, Vegas is a convenient destination, and thus I’ve been there numerous times in the past, though this will be my first trip for the WSOP.<\/p>\n

What do you think about WSOP?<\/strong><\/p>\n

WSOP is the holy grail of poker (The Main Event at least), and it is in most players dreams to win a bracelet.<\/p>\n

Any poker players you would love to meet and play against at WSOP?<\/strong><\/p>\n

Tony G and Sammy Farha. Their TV antics are very entertaining.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
