The Poker Thread

[Luwinski]

Reading through posts on some of the APAT Cardiff thread:


Multiway in a raised pot

flop 8-5-2

Because of the value Brett Pinder in the big blind has called with 5-3

He check calls a bet from Brian Frew

3 turn

Pinder check raises all in, but loses to 8-8 flopped top set


What kinda commentating is this

[Dark Ritual]

Is DML winning?

[Luwinski]

He said it kicks off again at 2:30pm. He's above average with 31 players remaining.

[DML]

Got crippled by shoving ak over ace eight, and she hit the eight. So so sick at a crucial part of the tournament. Played the side event and got sucked out in that as well. It's been a bit of a bad day!

[Psychic]

Just won a $11 180 man for $542. Even after months just playing cash games, I still got it.

[Luwinski]

Awesome gg

Any awesome hands?

The WSOP is here!

As per last year, 10 players that I think will win a bracelet:

Scott Seiver
James Dempsey
Phil Hellmuth
Shawn Buchanan
Daniel Negreanu
Phil Ivey
Sam Trickett
David 'Bakes' Baker
Viktor Blom
ElkY

[Clarkman]

My own fantasy draft for the 1% of Negreanu's winnings contest:

Eugene Katchalov
Dan Smith
Vanessa Selbst
Sorel Mizzi
Chris Moorman
Phil Hellmuth
Marvin Rettenmaier
Tom Dwan
Jake Cody
Faraz Jaka
Joseph Cheong
Viktor Blom
Mike McDonald
Tony G (Tony Guoga)
Bryan Devonshire


I will come back tomorrow and explain the logic to each choice. Anyone entering Jungleman's contest for the ME package?

[Clarkman]

9th in Nightly Thirty Grand for a disappointing $0.5k.

Aguiar, Vedes and DNegs. Should be good fun.

Event 7

Bloch won and Greenstein came 2nd shame I was rooting for the bear.

[Drumstick]

Nah. Good for Bloch to finally get that ridiculously oversized monkey off his back.

He'd been regarded as the best player to never win a bracelet for about a decade. No more!
