Why does every1 think it's 200k??
pot is 1.2 million, 1st run = 400k pot, 2nd run = 400k pot,
3rd run = 400k pot, lose 2 of those, == -400k

remember Jamie- Patrik hand ---> 250k to Jamie, 250k to Jamie, 250k to Patrik, that's -250 for Patrik

Where do you usually play, and what is your screen name?

(Just curious.)

I Guess you missed the post right after that where I corrected myself, with that selective reading of yours. Have never run it three times, and didn't know it was equivalent to saying "would you rather a shot at a third of my money?"

I don't think banning running more then once is a good idea unless you have cap at 200k or so. The biggest pots will be the ones with action on river, ie. Hansen/Negreanu. Is anyone really bothered by them running it more then once? It's their money, and having more rich whales on show just makes for bad poker--->see first 10 or so episodes of this season.

I beleive that it would make people who can barely afford the stakes (Antonio etc) to decline,

None of them own themselves completely anyway. A rule preventing them from running it more than once would probably just force them to compensate by not owning so much of themselves when they play, which is fine, because it still makes for more interesting tv.

i mean, everyone is knocking benyamine, saying hes not a 'pro' for this and stuff.. but i mean cmon, EVERY SINGLE PERSON here would have done the EXACT same thing if they were let off the hook like that. it definitely makes for less interesting tv, but if someone wants to give me tons of ev im not gonna call him an ass and tell him to keep his money.

Guy had the most important thing happen he wanted: he outplayed one of the pros in a huge pot on national TV. I think thats was worth more than any amount at the table, and him showing sympathy shows he can outplay the players, and still not even need the $$$.
