Isn't Negreanu lending Brunson 100K for a future promise of Bellagio chips the same as Negreanu taking 100K off the table ("going south" as the Deeb incident in season 1?)

Wow, yeah. That never occurred to me. Technically he is taking chips off the table, I guess.

[/ QUOTE ]

Didn't Negreanu buy in for like $10 million (obvious exageration)? If he had everyone covered by like a bazillion dollars, does it really change his effective stack size? Also, do we know he took it out of his chips on the table or out of his pockets, which clearly are lined with gold.

really like how Jen Harmon changed gears. Shows me what a true pro she is.

That looked like Jen Harmon last night. I've always heard about her unrelenting aggression in cash games. I think it was just a matter of her getting used to no limit. She said here during the first season she wasn't really comfortable playing no-limit. Last night she looked comfortable.

I thought her 3-betting the 679 flop with QQ against Antonio was really impressive. Her 97s bluff against Antonio's QQ on the KJKx board was pretty reckless, in my opinion, but slightly better than Antonio's weak playing in that hand.

He bought in for $1 mil the first season and nothing near that this time. He just borrowed 100k from Laak on the last episode. I don't know how much he ran that up to or if he had everyone covered. Apparently they all agreed that he would be playing with 100k behind anyways so it's a moot point.

Great Episode. I think Antonios game is fine. Jennifer made a great call as well as Daniel. Todds gal looked very nice.
Great return on Daniels' $1000 investment with Mike.

How about Matasow offering $500,000 for antonio to work in a furniture shop. Antonio would have taken him up on it. Problem is Mike does not have $5000.

That last call by Matasow was crazy. If daniel was chasing a flush he got there or the straight.

I don't remember this. Was this during the opening? My TiVo cut that off. What was said?

seriously, brunson, wtf w/ak...?

If Negreanu had 99,1010, or JJ and folded people would've been calling Todd a genius. Just like last week when DN folded the nut flush to Todd's bet.

I would have done the same thing Antonio did with those queens after he rebought. I can think of many of times where I lost my buyin, had to rebuy, picked up a huge hand and the same thing happened to me except I kept going with the hand and got busted again ... which then leads to MORE tilt ... he got away from the hand cheap and decided to move onto the next one. If Harmon had a king I believe she would have played the hand the exact same way trying to trick Antonio into calling because he wouldn't believe she would keep leading into him with top pair and then trips on the turn.
