Anyone can finish barely in the money in a major tournament if they enter enough of them. Honestly, I don't know whether James Woods is a good poker player. But he certainly can't be as good as he seems to think he is. [/ QUOTE ] There isn't a poker player on earth who is as good as they think they are.

Re: NBC National Heads-Up Championship - Taping at Caesar\'s 3/4 - 3/6
One weekend I must've seen James Woods bust out of 20 SNGs in a row at Foxwoods. He seemed to be a pretty big donator in general. I remember during some of his endless chatter, he mentioned how he outplayed Johny last year but got unlucky.
Sure thing Mr. Woods. Sure thing.

Re: NBC National Heads-Up Championship - Taping at Caesar\'s 3/4 - 3/6
I was at Caesars Palace tonight and got an excellent look at the tournament setup.
The tournament room is being used as the primary television set. It will have the main game in the center of the room and about 8 other games surrounding it. The audience will be in bleachers on the far right and far left of the room. The whole thing has a Roman arena look. It appears many of the early round matches will be played in the elevated high-limit section of the poker room. All the tables have been removed from there, presumably so that work can be done over the next couple days.

The TV stage will have the main table and 7 other tables. 8 matches will be played simultaneously. It looks like all the matches will be played on the stage. The high limit section has been cleared away for GQ to use to sell stuff. GQ is a sponser of the tournament.

Re: NBC National Heads-Up Championship - Taping at Caesar\'s 3/4 - 3/6
Maybe an good idea to keep track of the most important updates:
12:34:00 Barry Greenstein has roughly $24,000 chips to Cyndy Violette's $16,000. 12:33:00 Mike Caro has built a substantial lead over his opponent Tony G. 12:25:00 Scott Fischman raises to $1,500 on the button and James Woods reraises to $4,500. Fischman moves all in and Woods calls. Fischman has Ac-Ks and Woods has Qc-Qs. The flop comes K-7-8 and Fischman takes the lead. The turn is an eight and the river is a six. James Woods has been eliminated and Scott Fischman moves on. 12:24:00 Tuan Le is up to about $25,000 to Chris Moneymaker's $15,000. 12:17:00 After the river card, Mike Caro announced to Tony G that he had a straight flush and then checked to him. Tony G checks behind him and Caro shows him the straight flush. Since the hand, Tony G has been constantly talking to Caro. Tony G cannot believe that Caro checked the nuts to him. 12:14:00 Jerry Buss has taken a few small pots and has built a lead on Amir Vahedi. 12:13:00 Tuan Le just took down a huge pot against Chris Moneymaker. Le raked a pot of over $6,000 chips.

Re: NBC National Heads-Up Championship - Taping at Caesar\'s 3/4 - 3/6
12:39:00
Steven Glassner is all in on the turn with a made straight. However, Erick Lindgren calls his all in with a flush draw. The river brings Lindgren the diamond he needed and Steven Glassner is eliminated. Erick Lindgren moves to the next round. It's going fast, already 2 players eliminated. 12:42:00 Tuan Le Increases His Lead. Tuan Le now has $27,000 to Chris Moneymaker's $13,000.
