Default Re: *gossip* chimpanzee at the wsop?

On that video the chimp kept making string bets. You would think they would train him to simply put all the chips he has into pot whenever he gets 2 cards. But to actually try to teach a chimp to look at the cards and bet is absurd. I can't see Harrah's allowing this at all.


And why do people alway's refer to chimps as monkies? Monkies have tails. It's a friggin Ape.

After watching the yahoo video you can clearly tell mikey being in the WSOP will NEVER HAPPEN. Pokershare should have NEVER let this video go public. That would have left people thinking... hmmm maybe a great trainer who knew a little about poker could turn him into a pushbot or something... but no hes just a crazy ape grabbing other peoples chips and flipping over his cards mid-hand. LOL what a joke.

The legendary John B. Hi, John.

Are you working WSOP this year? From what I hear, they can use a good major tournament floorperson/shift manager.

All,

I just emailed the contact address at PokerShare. They have received a verbal OK from Harrah's to make Mikey's entry happen, but they are still waiting to have it in writing. Methinks they won't get it in writing, but I certainly hope they do, I think it would be a riot.

Any updates? Did they move the monkey's starting date?

Harrah's said there's no way a chimp/monkey/whatever is going to play.

God damn it! I was pretty excited, Harrahs sucks, though it's probably the right decision not to open those flood gates.

The monkey needs a trainer to telling him every thing to do and he can't even really do anything other than pick up cards and put single chips into the pot (and not necessarily from his stack). It would be funny, though.

So your saying he could beat the 2-4 game at Foxwoods?
