handled much better this time. easier to watch while maintainging the integrity of the game. i was totally impressed with the quality of play but i guess the short handed situation of tournaments will create for less than optimal play. But overall, it seemed more like a claling festival than making good laydowns or solid raises.

was this the $5,000 event or a smaller one as the prizes seemed pretty small.

this one was 2K buy-in with 213 entrants.

It did seem like there was a lot of questionable play going on here. Some of it you can call 3rd level thinking or whatever, like when Frangos called Negraneau to the river with a pr of 5s or some such low pair...seems like a fold to me on 5th but you cant account for what reads they are making or prior playing together.

Some just seemed like bad poker. There was a lot of MP completions and guys calling with just a pr of deuces, no kicker. Obviously they are editing out a lot of hands so tough to tell if they are just showing the wonky hands.
