High Stakes Rail Thread

[Ellis2WeightsRoom]

The only FTP pros I can see him playing against are Durrrr, Ivey, Antonious and maybe Benyamine.

He challenged Phil to play about 3 days ago, but Phil was only willing to play him on one table, ilisdur1 wanted to play Phil across 4 tables minimum, so I don't think he'll be playing much against Ivey.

Like Durrrr (did) he seems to have an edge when playing across multiple tables.

This is interesting, since Ivey had expressed interest in 4 tabling durrrr for the durrrr challenge.

thats cause ivey was getting something like 2:1 on 500k

3:1.

Which, tbh is not much of an incentive. If we suppose Ivey and durrrr are equally matched, then on average durrrr is 'giving' his challenger 500k. That's just $10 per hand, or 1% of a big blind at 500/1000. If durrrr has any sort of edge whatsoever, then the sidebet is nothing.

Someone tell durrrr to have a rest!

 

[paxmaniac]

Isi vs durrrr, 2 tables NL 2 tables PLO about to start.

Looks like he lost a little bit yesterday.

I think he got some if not all of it back from Antonius and Ziigmund.

 

[rogerdoger]

Seems Antonis is making quite a dint in Isildur1's bank roll.

Holy crap, Antonius is up over $3M in < 3000 hands.

Someone on 2+2 posted this:

Isildur is the warrior prince who in ancient times cut the One Ring of power from the finger of the Dark Lord Sauron. Later, his greed led him to keep it (even though he knew he should destroy it). This more or less directly got him killed, and led the world into the mess that Frodo & Co have to sort out in Lord of the Rings.

Translation: He scores big, then he tilts.

Awesome.

Isildur is out of his depth against Antonius playing Omaha.

He's just donating.

Next you're gonna tell us that Good2cu is out of his depth against Antonius

No way!

Surprising that Isildur agrees to play PA on that many tables PLO. It's clearly his weakest game (as evidenced by the fact that he's not pwning Durr at it ).

 

[Ricketts]

I'm no omaha expert, but Isildur didn't seem to have much in the way of redraws there.

 

[Drummer_19]

He probably plays the PLO tables to get Antonious to play the holdem tables and thinks overall he has an edge playing across all the tables, just my tinfoil hat theory.

Dunno about that. They started playing two holdem and two omaha tables and Isi ended up dumping the holdem in favour of Omaha.

 

[Borgsta]

He had 3 J's and 2 K's as his redraws. He obviously didnt think that Antonius was freerolling (almost).

Still when someone bets the pot on the turn and then repots it after you have repotted it surely you start to think that top 2 pair isn't good.

Antonius will always have a crushing draw or the nuts in that spot IMO. The question is whether two pair vs crushing draw has enough equity vs the times when it is completely dominated.

 

[rogerdoger]

Isildur1 must be about 1.5 plus up on Cole South.
Is spanking him big time.
Nearly has a mil in fron of him on 1 table.

 

[Drummer_19]

shit is getting epic, Ilsidur playing HU against Ivey, Durrrr and Antonius.. What a degenerate, this is pretty awesome.
