Dan Shak on the FT of the PLH, I hope its got holecards, very interested to get a look at how he plays with hole card vision

Hoping he can win a bracelet though, he wants one and would be good to see him win one

 

[JuddsABlue]

E-dog is on the FT of the 6max 5k that he won last year, which is pretty interesting

Joe Cada backs up his ME bracelet with a quality title in the 10K 6-max against a stacked FT

Coincidentally both Merson and Cada have 2 WSOP Bracelets

Both in the main event and the 10k 6max Championship

Wasn't Greg's a 25K?

 

[JuddsABlue]

Wasn't Greg's a 25K?

Not sure, maybe it was ?

Either way the wsop big 6max

 

[Glenno23]

Either way the wsop big 6max

Appears it was a 10K, but 1st paid over $1million, compared to Cada's $670K

Weird

Weird

It was the event before the main event, so a lot more people in town willing to spend 10k on some NLHE events

 

[Goodo73]

That was the amazing thing about Merson's ME win; it came directly on the heels of a win in a major lead-up event ... let alone getting down to 3 BBs in the main before pulling it out

 

[red+black]

Cada was down to 1% of chips in play at the Main Event final table. Then he won a couple 20;80s and the rest is history.

 

[JuddsABlue]

Those who are more familiar with the round ball game may know the name Max Kruse

Hes a german player who somebody tweeted was surprisingly left off the squad for the World Cup

Hes made the final table of the $1.5k 2-7NL event coming back tomorrow

reminds me of the main event FT (cant remember the winner, but it was the one that had Jarvis on it) where there were an absurd amount of suck outs and re-sucks. If a new player saw that and it was their first experience of televised poker, you'd have a hard time convincing them it wasnt set up

 

[ashley12]

Jarvis I think was the Cada year? Honestly, they all get mixed up by the end of it, particularly when their isn't any particularly flashy players involved.

---------------------

Dutch Boyd wins a third bracelet, there is no justice...

 

[Goodo73]

Jarvis I think was the Cada year?

2010:
1st Jonathan Duhamel
2nd John Racener
3rd Joseph Cheong
4th Filippo Candio
5th Michael Mizrachi
6th John Dolan
7th Jason Senti
8th Matthew Jarvis
9th Soi Nguyen

Brian Yoon who won the little 1 for 1 drop last year just won the 5k NLHE 8max for another 600k score

mbn!

 

[red+black]

WTF is up with this? Danzer is the current WSOP POY leader, bets each street in Stud 8 on the come, then slowrolls a flush?

Is he just betting for the hell of it or does he realise he was drawing to a smooth 7 and a Q flush (which he rivers)?

How does a pro not know what he has?

[JuddsABlue]

racener had a pretty shitty board runout with the J and 9 on 5th and 6th so Danzer was probably just bluffing to get him to fold his low draw, Racener called anyway with the split 3s, Danzer bluffed 7th and Racener backed in to trip 3s and Danzer backed into a flush and didnt realise until he looked

Just one of those misreads, it least he didnt muck ala Ivey late in the main event!

 

[red+black]

Yeah seems he was purely focused on Racener's board and wasn't really paying attention to his own hand.

Would have liked Calvin to get HU with both going for their 2nd bracelet of the Series.

 

[Happy Daze]

Even if Daniel Colman goes out in the semis of the HU event he is still a deadset freak. Has to be the best HU NLH player on the planet. He won the SCOOP HU recently, and before that chopped the WCOOP HU event, let alone what he makes from HU SNG. This is his graph from the first 3 months of last year:

 

[red+black]

Event 41 $1500 Dealer's Choice is arguably the best poker tournament ever held.

Holdem (3) - No Limit, Pot Limit, Limit
Omaha (2) - Pot Limit, Pot Limit 8/b
Stud (3) - Seven Card, Razz, 8/b
Draw (7) - No Limit 2-7 Single, 2-7 Triple, A-5 Triple, Badugi, Baducy, Badacy, Pot Limit Five Card

I'm sure they could get it to 20 games. Add Big O, Pineapple, Crazy Pineapple, Razzdugi.

 

[Glenno23]

Well, well.... who do we have here:

gooooooooooooo Matty!

The stats on which games were chosen over the course of the tournament would be interesting to know
