I just entered 2 more satellites. One for UBOC#12, a HORSE event on the 24th and one for UBOC#10, a PLO8 event on the 23rd. I won the HORSE entry and came in second and just missed out on the PLO8 entry.
Not a bad ratio: 3 entries out of 4 satellites. I actually bought into the PLO8 event, for $40+4, and used points for the HORSE tourney, so I've put forth $44 for a total of $697 worth of tournament entries! Kick ass!!!!
The HORSE satellite only had 4 players and the PLO8 only had 7. Ideal conditions for me for the most part except that I didn't pay enough attention to the PLO8 tourney. Was really focused on the HORSE because I could tell the players were really bad and I didn't want to waste that opportunity. I thought I could recover in the PLO8 if I started bad.
The PLO8 tourney was won by a player who basically played every hand and ran hot. I went to heads up a 9:2 underdog in chips and worked back to have the lead for a little while. Then we went all in PF with me having AQQ3 against his A34J and I got quartered when the board ran T86A4. Pfft... After that, I pushed a few hands later with QJ35ds PF and ran into AA97, which held up when the board went Q443K.
Oh well. I'll re-enter that PLO8 satellite a few more times. I may play the HORSE one a few more times as well to try and win extra entries which get paid to me in tournament dollars. UB is running a "all-you-can-enter" contest where the person who satellites into the same tourney the most times wins some extra tournament dollars (money to be redeemed for entries into any tournament on UB).
