WCOOP Event 3

I crashed out early on this one but I also didn't really feel like playing so it was probably inevitable. I decided not to play Event 4 since I wasn't into playing last night.

Tonight is Event 5, the $530 NL Hold'em, £2 Million guaranteed! I will probably be playing in this! Fingers crossed!

Hey Tillerman, nice to see the blog is back, being updated about poker regularly.

You got me started on poker (coming from some wc3) about a year ago, and now that i've been playing a while the excitement of the game wore off a bit. But when I read your blog, I can't help but feeling the nostalgia and I start getting that excited feeling I had when you first introduced me.

Thank you and keep it up.

Damn... Saw your all-in in "WCOOP Event 5" with pocket 66 on a flop with a 6 and a flush draw for the other. Saw how the other guy got the flush :-/

Tiller, I'd be interested to hear your perspective as a high-stakes pro, regarding all the scandal and accusations and stuff about AbsolutePoker these past few days.

Will you make a post about it?

Hey Tillerman, this is ]..Mad_game..[ inventor of the fake reaver drop. I was thinking about what you were saying about full tilt, well, couldn't you have your mom or a friend sign up with full tilt and then play on their account? I'm sure you would have thought of this but could you tell me why you can't do that.

Inventor of the fake reaver drop, awesome

I was the inventor of the invisible bunker rush (morphing hatcheries have low visibility, so there's a range where you can build the bunker that the zerg won't be able to see it unless he has other units nearby)

TillerMaN crushes everyone though because he invented the peon transfer (start a new expansion, send 12 workers from main to expansion to increase productivity)

That's a tactic that will be carried from RTS to RTS until the end of time. And I'm sure people will still be calling it "the Maynard"

I also invented using both the hotkey and the mouse to click the same button at the same time over and over again to make sure it's clicked at the earliest possible millisecond

For example, you're mining resources and your Nexus is inactive and you're just waiting for your probes to gather up to 50 minerals so you can make another one...

As the last probe approaches to make his mineral deposit to the Nexus, you hit PPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPP rapidly (probe hotkey) while simultaneously using your mouse to click on the Probe icon

You'll generally be a few hundred milliseconds ahead of the players that just mash the hotkey, and even further ahead of the players that just click the button over and over

I call it Maynarding your worker button

Don't forget to Maynard your worker button
