Just back from WPT Foxwood Final Table...SPOILER
 
I was going to post this thread as a spoiler, but I'm not going to bother explaining anything that happened during this sick final table if nobody want to see it.....let me know and I'll be glad to explain the important situations, as well as if you have any questions about the marked Aces situation etc..

Re: Just back from WPT Foxwood Final Table...
 
Before I explain anything, I'm going to cover myself by saying I'm explaining this from the best of my recollection. I obviously won't be off on any of the major points, but I'm not going to be able to remember the exact babies on the flop that are completely irrelevant.

The very first hand, maybe the 2nd....this guy Mike White (a local guy with a HUGE and very loud fan base in the crowd) made a std raise from the button, with Nick "TheTakeover" Schulman in the SB and Tom "Durrr" Dwan in the BB. Durrr 3bets White and cbets a 443 with 2 clubs flop. When White makes the call, you've got to be putting him on a pretty tight range of OPs here or overs with a club draw, keeping in consideration that he didn't 4b PF or raise the flop, almost completely ruling out QQ+. I personally told the friend of mine I was there with, imo he has 99-JJ here. The turn came the Jc, completing a flush draw. Durrr checked, White looked at his chips and even broke out a bet but ended up checking. River was a non-club T, went check check, White shows 99 and Durrr mucks.

Next hand I remembering being important was just a few hands later. Keeping up with his MO at this table, he opened the pot in pos. Nenad Medic, who started the FT with 555k (around 8.5 bbs at the time) 3b shoved with KQo and was snap called by Durrr who showed QQ. As a sign of things to come for Durrr, after the turn was dealt, on a Jx9x board, nenad had 7 knows outs. The river peeled off the Kd and shipped Nenad a 1mil+ pot, knocking Durrr down from his starting CL stack of 4.8m.

After that, the older guy, whose name I can't remember, ended up shoving A3o into a pos raise from Medic. Medic tanked and with a painful look on his face made the call with A5h and ended up making the NF to KO the 6th place finisher.

Mike White, like I said, a huge fan favorite ended up busting 5th after playing almost every pot. The crippling hand was him opening from the CO, and getting 3b shoved on by Nenad Medic. White called showing AKo to Medic's TT. With a T in the window, White was a huge dog and never caught up. A few hands later he ended up shoving 67d and got called by Mike Vela with KTo. KTo held and Mike White finished 5th.

A big hand eventually happened between Schulman and Dwan. Schulman opened in pos and Dwan made the call OOP. On a rainbow board on J x 9, Dwan C/C'd a bet of 420k from Schulman. On the J turn, Dwan C/C'd a 600k bet from Schulman. The river came a blank, Dwan checked, Schulman bet 840k. Durrr tanked and eventually made the call with a pained pool on his face, I think I hear him say something like "this is so close". Schulman showed K9o and Durrr mucked. IMO Durr called with 88. Then I got to thinking, Ahi would be the same hand as 88 against the range Schulman would be bluff-betting on the river in this spot.

Soon after came the most interesting pot at the FT. Schulman opened 22 utg, Durrr shoved, and this guy Mike Vela (now with some new found chips after a few pots) OVER called with KJo LOLDONKAMENTS. Schulman mucked 22 face up, Durrr survived the TxxT board until the river peeled the Js leaving him stunned and IMO the favorite to win, out in 4th place.

Holy [censored]. So Durrr didn't win?

This wasn't reported anywhere.

Re: Just back from WPT Foxwood Final Table...
 
Medic busted in 3rd when he 3b shoved A7d into Mike Vela's raise who snap called with AJo.

HU lasted less than a dozen hands. Within the first two hands, Nick BTN raised and Vela called then c/f'd flop. Then Vela BTN raised and Nick 3b which Vela called. Nick cbet and Vela mucked. From then on, with the 13m to 4m lead he had to start the HU match, he used his stack. Raising every button, and literally 3betting every BTN raise Schulman made. Eventually Schulman BTN raised with 55, Vela 3b to 1.2m with AQo, Schulman shoved and Vela called. Flop of A Q J left Schulman drawing near dead. Vela's 2p held through the turn and river and Mike Vela is the WPT Foxwoods Poker Finals Champion......


In conclusion, while Vela did play well a good amount of the time....the bottom line is.....L O L DONKAMENTS

The sick beats just made up the whole FT which is pretty sick to see happen, especially to a field including 2 former WPT Foxwoods Poker Finals Champions and Durrr, a proven professional.

Yes they are spoilers for anyone know isn't looking for the playout of hands, the title was Just got back from WPT Foxwoods Final Table.

Yes I'm aware this is going to be covered by a CP reporter, that is why I asked if those lurking in NVG would like me to post. Then I get pointless comments like this.....

It was a yes or no question, and the question was there for good reason, save the pointless remarks.

Is this the first time there have been such beats at a WPT FT?

[/ QUOTE ]

Durrr first mention to the TD that he could notice something (he didn't say exactly what) with one of the cards that made it stand out. The TD immediately asked for a new deck, no questions asked. The dealer, with the help of Dwan and the rest of the players looking on, dealt out the deck face down to look for other marked cards. At which point, Mike Vela, the guy who eventually won, from across the table, said something like "there's another one". After they were both turned up, they were two Aces. The players sort of laughed it off, including the Nenad Medic comment about online poker, the deck was replaced, and they moved on.

I should also mention, not that this matters much, but some [censored] seem to want something they "didn't aready know" as if I somehow posted the overview for my own good. In between the 40-80k and 60-120k blind levels, the TD asked someone off set (who I guess we both assumed knew what they were talking about) what the next blind level was. Instead of 60-120k, he was told 50-100k. The blinds were posted as such and Schulman made an opening raise at which point the TD was informed there was no 50-100k blind level in the structure. The TD was visibly frustrated and went as far as to say something like "I asked you 6 times what the next level was". The TD tried to have the blinds re-posted by the players but Nenad informed him that Schulman had already raised.

The hand was played out and the blinds continued at 60-120k from the next hand on as normal.

*
I should also mention that during one of the first few 10 minute TV breaks, while speaking with Mike Sexton I asked him how long the levels were in the news structure and he told me he thought they were 90 minutes and the next level was 50 and 100k. Now obv Mike is not responsible for having the structure memorized but take it for what it's worth.

Hope this helps to make your day for all of you lurking around 2p2 just to reply....

Ban.

You actually got one hand wrong. Durr raised like 650k w/ QQ, and KQ went all in. Durr had him covered with his intial raise.

Good WPT aside from Durr getting ridiculously bad beated.

Side brag, got a hug and kiss from Kimberly Lansing when I saw her again [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]

You're right, I appologize, Durrr's raise was enough to cover Medic's stack, causing him to CALL all in, not 3bet shove, thx.

Re: Just back from WPT Foxwood Final Table...SPOILER
 
its ok bc I got the action wrong. I thought it was like 650k but it was around 750k

thopught there were limpers but i think someone might have raised in between initially too.... hard to remember it all but you did a pretty good job of it [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

np, the only reason I did it was to give anyone interested an idea of the action from someone who was there. From the way you're talking it sounds like you were there, is that right? If so, I have a few question about some people there you might be able to answer. The unnecessary comments I was talking about earlier in this thread are epitomized by the muppet comment above this one.....
