"Official" WSOP Event #20: $50,000 H.O.R.S.E.

[52s]

5 1/2 (8 seemed like too much).

If 9th thru 3rd hadn't been eliminated within the first 80 or so hands and the FT had gone this long with say, 3 or 4 players going this deep into the morning, I'd guess ESPN would've considered expanding the HORSE TV show to a 2-hour deal.

As is we'll likely just get the one hour.

And that's all it should be. Who wants to see Chip get absolutely pounded by Andy for a full hour?

It's a sure bet it won't be the 235 they're at right now! Whew! This is most definitely more about the bracelet and less about the money! I'm guessing 25-40

I think there will be a discussion for next year about the FT of this event. I still think that NLHE only is a bad choice for a H.O.R.S.E. event. I think Chip feels the same way.

I saw the David Singer interview and he was also not too happy about it.

238. Bloch moves all in and Reese makes the call for his last $1,010,000. Bloch shows KspadeJspade and Reese turns over Aspade10diamond. The flop comes KdiamondJdiamond9diamond and Bloch flops two pair but Reese has a flush draw. The turn is the Adiamond, giving Reese a flush. The river is the Aheart and Chip Reese has doubled up.

Chip just doubled up: Pokerwire says-

Chip Reese was all in preflop against Andy Bloch. The players showed:

Andy Bloch KJ
Chip Reese A10

The board came KJ???. Bloch flopped two pair, but Reese turned a flush to win the pot and double up to about 2 million in chips

[Whitewash]

And after all this, Chip is again chip leader.
