I see Phil Ivey is multitabling this and the limit event.

Re: \"Official\" WSOP Event #5: $2500 6-Handed NL
 

I can't imagine how he's able to do that but it's certainly been done before.

Re: \"Official\" WSOP Event #5: $2500 6-Handed NL
 

Wow, DN actually made it through the first couple hours for a change, and is near the top. I guess the early crazy gambling style has to pay off sometimes.

Re: \"Official\" WSOP Event #5: $2500 6-Handed NL
 

Current leader according to CP at 3 p.m. PT was Rick Rockwell.

Is this the original "Who wants to marry a millionaire" guy.

Re: \"Official\" WSOP Event #5: $2500 6-Handed NL
 

Who care about Jennicide!!!!

Chris Ferguson and opponent Pete Hassett went all in preflop. The players showed:

Pete Hassett Ahearts7diams
Chris Ferguson 9clubs9diams

The board came AclubsKdiamsQdiamsKclubsKspades and Pete Hassett took the win with a full house eliminating Chris Ferguson. After the hand, Ferguson had 29k.

FUCKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKK

Re: \"Official\" WSOP Event #5: $2500 6-Handed NL
 

Dave Shallow is Dubai Millenium online. Very aggressive British player, plays a bit like Antonius. Hope he wins!!

Re: \"Official\" WSOP Event #5: $2500 6-Handed NL
 

About 800 starters today. My starting table was super soft, and I cruised up to 6000 within the first hour. I then continued my unpleasant tradition of losing with aces, getting 4000 all in preflop against 44, who flopped a four. Frikkin wonderful. Sammy Farha made a brief stay at our table before busting. I was later moved to a table with Paul Darden where nothing of particular note happened. Finally, I was moved to a new table with Seidel and Todd Brunson. I won a big coinflip with QQ to get up to about 15000, then Seidel and Richard Brodie slapped me around and I reached the dinner break (along with about 130 others) with 5100 in chips, at 200-400/50. I got up to about 6200, then lost an all in with ATs vs KQ and was busted in about 120th or so (as best I could tell).

At the dinner break, I saw stevepa, MLG, and colson. Our conversation was like

steve: I have about 15K and my table is awesome
MLG: I have about 28K and my table is awesome
colson: I have about 18K and my table is awesome
Punker: I have 5K and Seidel is making me his bitch

Negreanu has an absolutely monstrous monstrous stack. The FT of Rizen's event has been really rowdy, some 72 vs AA hand was all anyone was talking about.

Re: \"Official\" WSOP Event #5: $2500 6-Handed NL
 

Uh oh.

I don't see Mike, Gavin or Jason on the chip count anymore and Carl has been eliminated.

Anyone with any info?

Re: \"Official\" WSOP Event #5: $2500 6-Handed NL
 

According to Cardplayer,

Micheal in 33rd with 16k
Gavin in 37th with 15.4k
Jason out

Vanessa Rousso: Penalty for discussing hand?
 

From Card Player Updates: Seat 6 raises pre-flop to $5,000, and is re-raised by Vanessa Rousso, who makes it $15,000 to go. The player in seat 6 thinks about the call for a long time before Rousso calls clock on him. While seat 6 is thinking Rousso tells him "I have A-K." Seat 6 finally folds, and Rousso wasn't lying as she flips over AK.

TDA Rules #34:

Players, whether in the hand or not, may not discuss the hands until the action is complete. Players are obligated to protect the other players in the tournament at all times. Discussing cards discarded or hand possibilities is not allowed. A penalty may be given for discussion of hands during the play.

Re: Vanessa Rousso: Penalty for discussing hand?
 

Clearly warrants a 15 minute topless penalty.

Re: Vanessa Rousso: Penalty for discussing hand?
 

"The following players are going home with $3,790:

75-Steven Paul-Ambrose"

From the small blind Gavin Smith raises to $3,000. Joe Tehan calls from the big blind and the flop comes 10spade10club8diamond. Smith bets $6,700, Tehan re-raises $8,100 more. Smith re-raises to $20,000 total, quickly called by Tehan. The turn brings the 3heart. Smith checks, Tehan fires out $15,000 and Smith calls. The river is the Jheart. Smith checks as does Tehan and Smith turns over 5club5diamond. Tehan mucks his hand and pocket 5's takes down the pot. Smith is at $120,000.


nice.

Re: Vanessa Rousso: Penalty for discussing hand?

Of course I go back from break and Patrick [censored] Antonius sits to my left. All of a sudden it was the worst table I've ever sat at. He pretty much owned me the entire time we played together. I hate Patrick Antonius.

Steve

P.S. MLG may actually be better than me at sucking out. That was a site to behold...The one guy probably went and killed himself afterwards.

Yeah, I got back from dinner and moved quickly to a new table with Seidel, nevewin, Richard Brodie, and Joe Tehan. Seidel busted and was replaced by Deeb.

Re: \"Official\" WSOP Event #5: $2500 6-Handed NL

At this point, there's a big commotion at the table, and Matusow, who's at the table beside it, gets up and comes over to look. He makes a bunch of comments about internet donkeys and Mike laughs at him. Best comment by anyone:
European guy: "Kid, did you even look at your cards?"
MLG: "Yeah"
European guy: "Why?"
Oh, and I'd been sweating the table for a while, when the guy raised I was thinking Mike should push any two.

Matusow comes over again.
Matusow: "Do you have a job?"
Mike: "No"
Matusow: "You better get one"
etc., etc., etc.
It was awesome.

Oh, and this was pretty funny as well:
Mike: "You know what's funny?"
Matusow: "What?"
Mike: "Only one of us is a lifetime winner online"
Matusow: "And it sure as hell isn't me"
