I hate gold even more now
Its a race!
AC with TT and Gold with KJ!!!
I hate gold even more now
Gold hits a K on the flop, Game over for AC.
Bummer.
Gold can't ing miss!
229. Gold limps from the button and Wasicka limps from the small blind. Michael Binger raises to $1,500,000 from the big blind. Both Gold and Wasicka call and the flop comes 10club6spade5spade. Wasicka checks, Binger bets $3,500,000 and Gold moves all in. Wasicka folds and Binger calls. Binger shows Aheart10heart and Gold turns over 4spade3club for an open ended straight draw. The turn is the 7club and Gold makes a straight. The river is the Qspade and Michael Binger is eliminated in 3rd place.
Wasicka said he folded 87 of spades. If he did, thats a realllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllly weak fold. He obviously was trying to play for 2nd, which was stupid. You make that call all the damn day. I can't imagine folding an open ended straight flush draw 3 handed with so much money in the pot.
Gold wins. Wasicki was the weakest player I've ever seen make it that deep at a ME FT. I am amazed at how horrible he played down the stretch and how weekly he played.
HORRIBLE.
Props to Gold, he played him like a fiddle.
That was great for Lee finished 6th winning what 2.2 million
Not a bad $10K investment.
Yeah it was crazy how weak he was. I didn't understand over and over how he would raise, then get re-raised (and not even a monster re-raise) and fold. If you aren't strong enough to handle a re-raise, then don't raise in the first place.
Yeah I want to see the earlier rounds to see if they ever played well in the tournament.
That was a weak weak final table. Nobody had balls at all.
Gold actually played good big stack poker, he did a great job of getting his money in good. Amazingly he knocked out 7 of the 8 players at the table.
Wasabee was a 25 year old restaurant manager from Colorado. He was nervous and trying to get every last dollar by finishing second so he didn't want to challenge Gold.
In his shoes, I might do the same thing against Gold's stack.
I wouldn't have. When there were four players left, he had about 15 to Gold's 50.
When you have 15M and the leader has 50M, all you have to do is double up twice on him and you'd be dominating. Even heads up, he had 16M to Gold's 64M. Again, you only have to double up twice to be in the lead. He folded so many rivers that I thought he might be related to Tunafish Riverburgh
I think it was a really weak fold, but I understand why he did it. But if Michael Binger's hand would of held up and beat Gold's draw, That play would have more than likely lost him 2 million dollars.
Kurt = Monday Morning Quarterback
HAHA, I look up and see I'm the commish now. It wouldn't be bad except for I feel like Tony Scalley.
I think it defiently is monday morning quaterbacking and I know that when you're starting at that money it is harde rto pull the trigger, but I really think even with all of that in mind..
I'd never fold a 3 handed OESFD with so much dead money already in the pot. the 2 million, thats a shot at first place. He wins that and the chip lead is down to 3:2 going to heads up.
And yeah, like Kori said he should have been raising and then checking so many damn flops. I don't understand how that guy could pull off the best play of the final table with that bluff but up almost everything else.

Those were his tournament places before last night, so he wasnt' knew to late stage poker.
double post
I think those results actually show that he's not very good at late stage poker, just good at early stage poker.
I really wish A.C. would have won that coinflip vs. Gold, if he did, we would probably still be watching them play heads up. Also, I really want to know what poker gods Jamie Gold prays to, because the guy was on a ridiculous card rush.
There's no doubt about it, he played like a kitten on a tigers table. There's also no way I lay that hand down. I was just making excuses for the guy.
And I'm usually a money guy, but for the prestige of WSOP, I'd risk moving up the money latter (cir stances pending of course) for a shot at the crown.
And Gold did have a rediculous amount of hands. He played with what he got very well, but it's pretty easy to run the table when you're getting great cards.
Gold was controlling the action all night. Played all of those mofos like lil beyitches.I wouldn't have. When there were four players left, he had about 15 to Gold's 50.
When you have 15M and the leader has 50M, all you have to do is double up twice on him and you'd be dominating. Even heads up, he had 16M to Gold's 64M. Again, you only have to double up twice to be in the lead. He folded so many rivers that I thought he might be related to Tunafish Riverburgh
Bold enough to show a 2 3 off on a bluff. Balls right there....
Hey there's no shame in folding the best hand... or is there. :quagmireI wouldn't have. When there were four players left, he had about 15 to Gold's 50.

One good thing was the coverage. Phil Gordon is one of my favorite players to listen to because he analyzes things really well. I cant' believe i watched that many hours of live poker with no hole cards, but it was really awesome.
C'mon people, someone tell me if the R Lee that was on the news is the same guy.
Had heard & even read somewhere here that he used to make book.
