I think the 2nd day.

[timvp]

San Antonio looks pretty bad. I've seen him make a couple bad plays already.

Value bet gone wrong. Not a terrible move by Cunningham, but how do you put someone on the only other 9. 2 mil seems like a good bet for value, just didn't work out to be good.

[MannyIsGod]

:shootmeI like that call in NL depending on the raise size.

I hope Alan Cunningham takes it down, but it would be cool to see the SA bookie win too.

thakns for the PBP Kori.

[kris]

Richard Lee representing the home land is really cool. I'm pulling for him.

[scott]

I read the article about Lee in today's paper... it just pissed me off that 40 years ago a State Rep could afford to lose $20k in a weekly poker game and then let his 15 year old kid play for him. Obviously he was being paid way too much.

[MannyIsGod]

I went to a tourney last night and all everyone could talk about was Richard Lee. He's apparently a bookie here town, dude loves sports betting. I'm not sure how many people have played with him as far as poker goes, but I think it is bad ass dude refused to sell out and wear someone's gear in favor of wearing the SA shirt.

[scott]

Troubleshooters should do an expose on how Nelson Wolfe is friends with this bookie, obviously an illegal profession. :lol

[Kori Ellis]

They are coming back from break now. Blinds are up to 100/200K.

[Kori Ellis]

... but I think it is bad ass dude refused to sell out and wear someone's gear in favor of wearing the SA shirt.

It's an ugly shirt too :spin

[timvp]

I like that call in NL depending on the raise size.

4-6-Q (two diamonds)

[Kori Ellis]

Cunningham 900K bet
Kim folds

[Kori Ellis]

Cunningham raises to 600K preflop, everybody folds.

[MannyIsGod]

Right now on Tradeports these are the prices for the outright winner.

Gold - 43
Cunningham - 25
Lee - 22

That basicaly breaks down to the traders giving Gold a 43% chance of winning it right now, Cunningham a 25% chance, and Lee 22%.

I think I'm going to buy some Cunningham contracts becaue I think he'll definetly be there in the end.

[Kori Ellis]

It's like watching the old school events. It's fun to guess what these guys got.

[Kori Ellis]

Nice. How is it watching without the hole cards? Still exciting? This shit is going to go on forever. :lol

It's a little weird, but I've watched a lot of OLD World Series that don't show them, so I'm kind of used to it.

Thats cool. I've only seen a couple of the old ones. I love watching the one with Stu Ungar that was held outdoors.

Yeah I've seen that one a few times. It being outside was a trip.

[Kori Ellis]

Wasicka on the button goes all in. He takes down the blinds.

[MannyIsGod]

What always gets me about the old ones is how they bring out all this cash...in a fucking cardboard box that was for toilet paper or something simillar. WTF? :lol

[Kori Ellis]

What always gets me about the old ones is how they bring out all this cash...in a fucking cardboard box that was for toilet paper or something simillar. WTF? :lol

That's true:lol I think I've actually seen one that was a toilet paper or paper towel box.

Cunningham A-Q

[Kori Ellis]

Turn K!

River A

Binger (short stack) doubles up.

[MannyIsGod]

Binger sucks out on the turn.

[Kori Ellis]

We should throw him a river parade if he wins. :lol

:lol

[MannyIsGod]

Binger had to make that play though. he probably thought he had 11 outs but he only had 8 because of the shared ace.

[Kori Ellis]

Wasicka All-In
Binger Calls.

Wasicka A-J
Binger A-9

[MannyIsGod]

he now has a shitload of outs,

3 9nevermind, I'm an idiot. Now he needs an 8 5 or 9

[Kori Ellis]

Binger is an idiot. He just doubled up and then he calls the all-in with A9. He deserved to lose.

[Kori Ellis]

Cunningham raises to 600K from the button.
Everybody folds.

[AlamoSpursFan]

Damn I wish I could watch this...

[Kori Ellis]

Lee takes a pot (I wasn't paying attention to the details) :lol

[MannyIsGod]

That was a really stupid call with A9. AT BEST he has Kx and you're 60/40. After doubling up, why the hell do you want to gamble with so much of your stack like that? Piss poor man.

[Kori Ellis]

Cunningham raises to 600K early. Everybody folds.

Funny. You got some kind of deal:lol For me it just goes to a page where you can order it.

[Kori Ellis]

Actually now it's just a dead link.

[AlamoSpursFan]

I opened it up on mine, and my cousins computer, and it popped on for both

I got an ESPN.com sign in page.

[GINNNNNNNNNNNNOBILI]

Try right clicking on it, and clicking open in IE

[MannyIsGod]

:lol, I had to pay. Kurt is the only one who got it for free. I didn't mind paying the 25 bucks for it though.

[Mr Dio]

An option to open in IE doesn't come up when I Right click.

[Kori Ellis]

Try right clicking on it, and clicking open in IE

At first it was a espn sign in page, when I signed in, it went to the order page for this.

Now it's just a dead link for me.

I don't really care though -- I'm watching it on TV. It's just odd.

[GINNNNNNNNNNNNOBILI]

I guess they must be running some "Badasses get it for free" special :lol

That's fine.

[Kori Ellis]

Cunningham just took a pot.

[MannyIsGod]

Gold is starting to sit back, which is going to mean Cunningham will probably pick up a bunch of chips. Probably a bad move by Gold.

[MannyIsGod]

Big reraise

[Kori Ellis]

Wasicka bet 700K, Kim raises to 2.1M, Wasicka goes all in.

[MannyIsGod]

Wasicka just moved over the top AI on Kim's reraise. I think Kim may have to call depending on the pot odds here.

[MannyIsGod]

Kim has 1/3 of his chips already in, so he's getting 2:1 on the call. I think he has to make it here.

[Kori Ellis]

Kim folds.

[MannyIsGod]

Kim folds. Wonder what the hell he had.

[MannyIsGod]

I think he might have had JJ-99. He might have folded AQ, but i can't see what else he was reraising with unless he was a play.

[Kori Ellis]

I think he might have had JJ-99. He might have folded AQ, but i can't see what else he was reraising with unless he was a play.

I was going to guess pocket 10's.

[MannyIsGod]

Man, I really wish I knew what they both had. I think Kim made a poor fold there unless he made a reraise with a really weak hand.

[MannyIsGod]

I was going to guess pocket 10's.Yeah, I think that 99 or AQ are the most likely hands. I really don't think I can fold JJ at that poitn getting 2:1.

[MannyIsGod]

It'll be cool to see how close we are when the hands come out :)

[Kori Ellis]

Binger, Kim, Cunningham, GOld
K-A-6 checks around

Turn- 2 Gold bets 1M, everyone folds.

[Kori Ellis]

Yeah, I think that 99 or AQ are the most likely hands. I really don't think I can fold JJ at that poitn getting 2:1.

Yeah I don't think it was Jacks. I'll stick with my guess of 10's and we'll have to check months from now when it airs. :lol

[Kori Ellis]

Wasicka bets 700K everyone folds.

[Phil Hellmuth]

I say he had KQ suited.

[Kori Ellis]

San Antonio is in a pot.

He raises to 700K, Binger goes all in.

[MannyIsGod]

Jamie Gold should call this with whatever he has.

[Kori Ellis]

Gold is contemplating calling (or re-raising).

[Kori Ellis]

Gold makes it 4M to go.

Lee is now thinking.

[MannyIsGod]

Thats an isolation raise. He probalby has a PP or Ax

[Kori Ellis]

Gold is saying he has a monster hand and that Lee San Antonio should fold.

Lee folds.

Gold and Wasicka both have pocket K's :wow

[MannyIsGod]

KK v KK! Wow!

[Kori Ellis]

Two hearts on the flop.

A of clubs comes on turn.

Chopped pot.

Good job by Lee San Antonio getting out of the way.

[Phil Hellmuth]

thatd be funny if one of them won on a flush board.

[Kori Ellis]

Gold has just under 36M, Lee has 18.5M, Cunningham has 11M

[Phil Hellmuth]

What did Lee have.

Ace rag is good against two KK KK

LOL

[MannyIsGod]

thatd be funny if one of them won on a flush board.In one of my biggest tournament wins, I won with AK v AKs when I hit four to a flush on the board. It was sick.

[MannyIsGod]

Lee had AQ (so he says)

[timvp]

I had Lee on AQ. I'm pretty sure that's what he had.

[Kori Ellis]

What did Lee have.

Ace rag is good against two KK KK

LOL

He said he didn't have an Ace.

[Kori Ellis]

Lee, Gold, Cunningham in a pot.

Lee/Cunningham check after 4-3-9 pot.

Gold bets 1.8M.
Lee folds.

[Kori Ellis]

Cunningham folds.
Gold wins and shows a 9.

[MannyIsGod]

Gold is TOO relaxed.

[MannyIsGod]

I thougth Lee said he had AQ?

[Kori Ellis]

Gold is TOO relaxed.

Well did you read the article on him on ESPN? He doesn't want to win.. he wants to come in 2nd. The article made it sound like he was saying he might even throw it. He doesn't want fame.

[Aggie Hoopsfan]

^^^^ Poker Nerd.























j/k Manny.

[Kori Ellis]

I thougth Lee said he had AQ?

I thought he said No when they asked that.

Richard Lee looks so damn San Antonian it is funny.

:lmao

True.

It's super cool that he didn't sell out to one of the companies though. Everyone else is really branded.

Wasicka raises to 600K preflop. Kim calls
Flop 4-4-3

[Kori Ellis]

Wasicka bets 1M.
Kim goes all in.
Wasicka all in.

Turn - J

River - 7

Kim goes home.

[MannyIsGod]

Needs a 9 and only a 9

[Kori Ellis]

Kim gets $2.4M in 7th place.

[MannyIsGod]

Goodbye Kim.

[Kori Ellis]

Wasicka has over 15M in chips now.

[MannyIsGod]

Thats tough luck. You can't fold 99 on that board on the flop. Just bad luck.

[Kori Ellis]

Good job by Kim though, 22-years-old and getting $2 million isn't bad. :)

[MannyIsGod]

Good job by Kim though, 22-years-old and getting $2 million isn't bad. :)Yeah no shit, thats a pretty sweet deal.

[Phil Hellmuth]

Perfect case scenario for Wasicka.. get him to commint preflop with small-reasonable raise then get a paired up flop that hit no one and then you are walking the yellow brick road with your QQ once the 99 thinks he is golden.

I might have folded my 9-9 or small raise or even call to see where I am at... Risky and bad awful play IMO.

[MannyIsGod]

I think calling there is a horrible move. What do you do when a scare card like that Jack comes? I think Kim played it fine. On a board like that more times than not, that bet is a continuation bet and the reraise takes the pot down right then and there.

Wasicka vs Lee

J-10-4

Lee checks
Wasicka bets 1.2M

[Kori Ellis]

Lee folds.

[Kori Ellis]

Gold raises preflop, Lee and Cunningham call.

Flop A-4-6 (two spades)

Gold raises, they fold.

[Phil Hellmuth]

I think calling there is a horrible move. .

I like a call in this spot to see what the initial raiser does next. AQ to A10 is very possible. even KQ...

You don't lose much $ but I personally think you gain a lot of information from one call, but that is just me.

Fold, call, or raise are all considerable plays. But then again there is so much amgibuity with a flop that is low paired and one off set card. so wat gives.

[Kori Ellis]

Butler limps in, Lee calls, Cunningham raises to 1.4M, everyone folds.

[Kori Ellis]

Butler raises to 1M preflop and everyone folds.

But then again there is so much amgibuity with a flop that is low paired and one off set card. so wat gives.I hate the call because it eats up so much of your stack you're pretty close to being commited. Puting 40% of your chips into the pot then fold to one over on the turn is really really really weak, IMO. You're just too late in a tournament to be calling for information when the bets are so big in relation to your stack. I think losing 40% of your stack at that point is a big loss. I'd play AK the way Wasicka played it. Had there been a cal on the flop, I'm firing with AK again on the turn. Kim has to think that he's good at that point.

Just bringing this to a current page so I don't have search again & again for it.

The money difference between 1st and 2nd is so huge, I'd be gunning like crazy for #1.

[Mr Dio]

So Lee has a pretty good chance of at least 4th right?
Can he get up & go to the john til B & B are gone?

[MannyIsGod]

AC bet out 1.1 which is what he bet out when Gold reraised him. I wonder if he was trying to draw a reraise there?
