WSOPE Main Event Now a "Survival Game" says Sinclair

Partager sur Twitter Partager sur Facebook

Will Shillibier

Niveau 15 : 3,000/6,000, 6,000 ante

Different poker players have different approaches to social media. Some you very rarely hear from until they win a tournament, and others are updating at every break to keep their friends/fans/backers (delete as applicable) informed.

One such player is Jack Sinclair, whose Instagram posts document the rise and fall of his tournament so far.

"It's been a slow start," said Sinclair on the first break. "I have about what I came into today with; nothing's really happened. I have maybe a little bit more so I can't complain.

"By this point, it's just habit," said Sinclair when asked about his social media updates. "I don't think it's necessarily beneficial; especially in intense situations. At final tables or deep in very big tournaments I post a lot less because it can be a distraction, but in general, I just do it when I have a moment and it's not too much of a hassle."

With five more levels of play today, Sinclair insists that the Main Event has become more of a "survival game".

"We're 50-odd players off the money. I had a tough table which just broke, and now I'm at another slightly less tough table! It'd be kind of good to cash because I have no Euros after this! So if I want to keep playing in Europe, I'd like to cash this or I'll have to do some currency exchange.

"At the moment the structure is so deep that I'm able to wait a bit more than usual. So I'm just chilling out at the moment."
