I am going to be 21 on the 29th. I noticed there are going to be some WSOP tournaments near me at that time. I want to play on the one that is on the 29th because I figured it would be fun to play a tourney on my birthday.
How do I register for the tourney early if I am not 21 yet? am I allowed to? or do I have to register the day of the event? and if I do have to register that day is there a possibility that the tourney will be full?
Thank you in advance ^_^
well, u h ave to be the right age to play, so u can just register then. it depends where the tourney bein held,, usually these are ot full AHEAD of time ,, at least where i live. but i couldnt say for sure,, why dont u give them a call, and get some info in advance. and GLGL TO U and let us know how u do

You're really not following this thread at all. It's obviously a WSOP circuit event.Quote:

You should be folding a lot more hands than you are playing. You should try and stick to premium hands. In between hands you are in, study your opponents. Watch their bets, pay close attention to the showdowns, what people are betting with, what they are calling with. You should be a sponge sucking up as much information as you can, and giving away as little as possible.
Once again, stick to premium hands. If you're not sure what hands are really premium look at a guide ahead of time. Like this:
Texas hold 'em starting hands - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
If you get a good starting hand, you should raise. Don't try an slow roll pre flop, it's not worth it. You shouldn't try to slow roll pots unless you flop the stone cold nuts. Tournament play, you want to win a lot of smaller pots, not a few big crazy all in hands, cause you won't last long. Remember tournaments are a marathon not a 50 yard dash. Pace yourself. But always pay attention to the blinds and the levels as they will be increasing.
There is a big difference between online poker, and poker in real life. The gist of the game is the same, but people play a lot different online. Especially in lower stakes. People are really loose. The average person willing to put down $120 for a tournament, is gonna have a lot of poker experience. Don't underestimate your opponents. But don't overestimate them, just make sure your getting your chips into pots with really good hands.
Most of all, have fun, cause it's your 21st birthday, but remember it did cost you 120 bucks, so play serious. When you look back on your 21st birthday, do you want to remember getting takin out on the first table, or making the final table?
... and most of all Good Luck man.
Definitely tell us how you ended up doin, and what all happened.
Thanks :) That was really helpful.Quote:

edit: I will def keep you guys updated on how I am doing. I will have my phone with me so if I am doing good I will throw a quick post on here ^_^
