"Official" 50K HORSE WSOP final table on ESPN thread

[Ghazban]

What were the stack and blind sizes on the final hand?

I will say, its nice to see a classy final table for once instead of idiots berating each other and $hit talking to get their precious "reads" on others.

When Reese had the K [img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] 6 [img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] and Bloch flopped top pair with the 97 I believe, did he really check/raise Bloch's 100k flop bet to about 3M with the flush draw/King overcard? He must really have been tired.

My thoughts exactly, but I think Chip Reese probably deserved it for all that he has acomplished in his poker career. Its also hard to feel sorry for somebody who just won around 1 million dollars imo.

It was nice to see a lot of class at the table from ALL the players.

Why is this so shocking? Seems like a fairly common HU move among good aggressive players. You're a coin flip against top pair, plus of course you get the FE.

i think they are weirded out by the overbet. not the check raise.
