Shortly afterwards, Hellmuth was asked to leave the tournament area due to lack of media credentials.

I say within the hour Hellmuth is back with CardPlayer credentials.

Would you say the same thing if you were the guy holding QQ?

He didn't intend to? "Hey cameraman, come over here! Okay, you're here? Good. " *Throws shark card protector at opponents chips.* "Chomp! Humberto calls." *Turns over AA*.

That's slowrolling, and he's not good for the game. Good players with class are good for the game. Cloutier, Brunson x2, Ivey, Luske, Lederer. Not H Brenes.

While it was definiately a gay thing for Humberto to do and completely unnecessary, the fact he began doing the shark thing and calling the cameras over would be a strong indication to me that he was not only going to call but have a big hand, most likely AA

Someday, I will play in the WSOP. Because I'm at least as good as this Gold guy.


Jamie Gold raises to $5,000 preflop and Brian Micon thinks for a minute before finally pushing all-in for $18,000 more ($23,000 total). Jamie Gold folds, showing pocket Queens and Micon is amazed by the fold. Micon says he got lucky that a huge stacked player would fold a hand like that preflop to a short-stack's all-in. After his comment, he waved an electronic sign that read "Donkey." Micon now sits with $31,000.

[/ QUOTE ]

Seriously I can't for the life of me understand how this Gold guy could have accumulated $300K in chips. If he plays like this much of a rock with QQ against a smallish all in reraise then who is paying off his bets? He must only be willing to put money in the pot with near lock hands.

He just lost to the same player when he flopped a set and went all in but Micon rivered him for a higher set. I'm glad that this nit got a bad beat put on him and hopefully it continues.

At least he's creative with his slowrolls.

Can't wait for Gold v Micon, round 3. Seems Gold's been calling the clock on him a few times too.

Looks like it'll be hand for hand or round for round soon. With the next break coming in the next hour, wonder how they'll handle this one.
