On to new horizons !
So, after finally playing poker again (see below), I decided to participate in the Christmas Poker Festival in Wiesbaden next weekend. I kinda wish I hadn't now, because the organisation seems very weird :
They have a tournament on Friday (300€ buy-in), one on saturday (600€) which is a two-day tournament, and one on sunday (250€). Obviously, if you make the final table of the saturday event, you will most likely be unable to play in the smaller sunday event. However, the only way you can know for sure that you will have a seat in the sunday tournament is to pre-pay the entry fee, which WILL NOT BE REFUNDED under any circumstances. So you can either take your chance that by the third hour of the second day you will be eliminated, or you can play in both events and blind off for however long you're still in event #1, or you can try to maybe get a seat to the sunday tourney once you bust out of the saturday one.
Well played.
