Default Re: Question on final table

the gap between "doesn't equal NLH specialist" and "close to zero NLHU experience" is what one might call, kinda big.

Michael, who said that? What does outclass means? Reese is perhaps the best poker player ever. Is he a big favourite in a NLH tournament when playing HU against a circut pro who plays mostly NL?

If your answer is "Yes, you are all idiots", I would be glad to wager on that.

I'm willing to wager anybody on this board $83 that Chip Reese is a better
No Limit Holdem Heads Up player than I am. Eighty Three bucks. I'm serious.

Once again, how often do you think Reese plays heads up NLH?

mustardinmyhair said every weekday, so he lost the quiz and he's out. Now it's your turn. Try your best.

BTW, I'm rooting for Reese, cause I think he's the best HORSE player in the world and while you can't prove anything in a single tournament, he made an amazing showing the past 3 days and deserve the bracelet and title.

I said WEEKNIGHTS!!! And I was kidding. But still I'm sure he has
PLENTY of heads up NLHE experience, probably against some of the best
players in the world. Of that there can be no doubt.

Chip doesn't play many tournaments either, for instance he said he is only going to be playing the HORSE and the Main Event this year and that's it for the wsop.

Name one time other than the NBC HU championship that you've seen or heard of Chip Reese playing NLHE heads up.

Versus Andy Beal is one event I've read about. I don't know of any other well documented events, but I'm sure everything he does doesn't make the paper.
