Patrick Boyer’s « Main Event » Experience... 2010-07-30

Patrick Boyer’s « Main Event » Experience...

by Suzie Paris

 

Patrick Boyer at the Main Event of the 2010 WSOPThe "Main Event", one of the most prestigious gathering in the poker world! "If, for fun, we were dividing the total number of players in the world by the number of players at this event, each of the 7,319 participants would represent the dream of some 20,000 people!" It is with this thought that the tournament director gave the kickoff of the Event 57 of the World Series of Poker, 41st edition.

Patrick Boyer was there. The League gave him the opportunity to win his entry and now, he was getting ready to live this experience... He held the seat no. 5, table 367 of Day 1B. This Tuesday, July 6th, heading towards the red section of the vast Amazon Room of the Rio Hotel in Las Vegas, it’s a safe bet that he was probably feeling a few butterflies of excitement tickle his stomach.

Patrick Boyer at the Main Event of the 2010 WSOPThe starting stack is 30,000 units, Day 1B will include 4 levels, blinds go up every 2 hours and start at 50-100 and end at 150-300 with the introduction of an initial ante of 25... A tournament structure to benefit fully from this poker experience. With an entry fee of $10,000 US, we want to give you your money’s worth! In all, prizes totalling $68,798,600 will be shared between 747 players.

Patrick described the first day with enthusiasm. He has taken advantage of good cards along with good timing. He quickly realized that the game level and structure of the tournament are slow and so, everything is mostly played pre-flop. We fold a lot, there are rarely more than two or three players in the hand. Nobody came here to go out among the firsts! His game plan is to try to double up each day to give himself some room to manoeuvre and play with a minimum of comfort. He goes through the first day and ends up with 58,000 chips... mission accomplished!

Ladies’ poker in the league: players who stand out... 2010-07-23

Ladies’ poker in the league: players who stand out...
Portrait of Francine Tremblay

by Suzie Paris

 

Francine TremblayAt first glance, one can guess that under the guise of elegance, reserved and perhaps even slightly shy woman there is a warm and endearing woman.

She presents herself as having been married for thirty years and proudly mentions her two daughters and five grandchildren. She comes from a family where everyone played cards, her father, her mother and grandmother never said no to a little game of cards...

Now retired, she has previously enjoyed many trades. Hairdresser for many years, she later discovered by driving a school bus for disabled children, the pleasure of driving. She also organizes group travels, which leads her more than once to Las Vegas, Nevada. The year 2000 marked her last visit to the game capital. She used to play "Grand Prix", a popular game at the time.

To the unavoidable question: "Why do you play poker?", she answers candidly that poker allows her to get out of the house. Having undergone heart surgery two years ago and still living today with the effects arising from certain complications, poker has become her only hobby. That’s why she plays so much. Being very active, if she stays home, she will always find an excuse to work and won’t relax. She therefore prefers to play; it feels good to "see people." "Poker, it keeps the mind sharp", she says, "you always learn with poker, from the mistakes you make, you train yourself to make the right decision in the future". This game also allowed her to overcome her shyness, to come out of her shell. She is now more "direct", she says what she has to say and with a little smirk, admitted: "I am more "bad"!..."
