[ QUOTE ] [ QUOTE ] [ QUOTE ] Clearly Ivey does not like to be interviewed. Among the top pros he has the lease amount of exposure. [/ QUOTE ] Dude, Chip Reese has been at a TV featured table twice in...forever (2004 ToC, 2006 HORSE). [/ QUOTE ] Chip was at a WPT final table a few years ago, I just can't remember which season - probably season 2. [/ QUOTE ] Chip was in season 2, WPO from Tunica, he was eliminated the same hand as the "car wash" guy, James Tippin. [/ QUOTE ] Reese also was on the original Poker Superstars Invitational, so he was on tv every week for a couple of months there. People who are watching this know he is. |

So, let me get this straight: Watching limit poker is boring, but watching a bunch of people fiddle with their chips, staring at each other for hours on end isn't? Sigh. [/ QUOTE ] Neither are, so it's not straight. |

all, re: dewey tomko. A chapter in Rick Reilly's book "Who's Your Caddy" is dedicated to Reilly caddying for Tomko. It's a good chapter. |

Most disappointing HORSE coverage ever. Who cares about another NL HE all-in donkfest show? "I have two sevens, ohh..you got two tens...nice hand".
If they call it HORSE they should show HORSE! |

I thought one of the all-time great final tables was the unaired ESPN coverage of the lowball table a couple years back (the one that you could watch online). |

We've known for 4 Months that the final table was going to be NL only. Obviously that isn't long enough for some of you to get over it.

I was sick and missed the final 15 minutes- how did Andy blow the lead? More crazy suckouts as we saw for both players near the end? [/ QUOTE ] There seemed to be some questionable, in my mind, pushes 50bb deep followed by calls... |

One thing that I've never seen resolve... what is it about Andy Bloch that everybody wants to say his full name all the time? I mean it is kind of fun to say... "Andy Bloch raises". "Andy Bloch is all in". "Andy Bloch folds..."
Has anyone offered an explanation for this? |

Isn't 8 or better and hi/lo interchangeable? [/ QUOTE ] Well, usually. But sometimes they'll play "Stud Hi/Lo Regular" as part of a mixed game lineup (Ivey or Negreanu talked about this on the Circuit a while back as being played in the Big Game). "Regular" just means there's no 8-or-better qualifier for the low hand, but it's still a Stud format hi/lo split game. |
