[ QUOTE ] These fantasy things are really fun actually. My friend grabbed Ivey #1 overall and really felt confident in him winning it and the overall bet of the pool with 27 people left. Unfortunately for him Phil Ivey decided to play like a $6 partypoker sit n go player with 3 tables left. [/ QUOTE ] JJ = nuts [/ QUOTE ] HH? |

When he ran into Andy Black who 4-bet A2o all in PF, Ivey was screwed b/c his gameplan was completely wrecked with a maniac to his left. |

[/ QUOTE ] Can't blame Ivey for reading weakness on Andrew Black when Black had A2, but Black somehow pulls the trigger with it preflop following a raise, reraise, and re-reraise. |

[/ QUOTE ] btw i didn't mean to imply that ivey was a fish. to be fair, given how we saw kanter play later, although espn didn't show that whole hand i don't think, i imagine kanter's range is a lot larger than overpairs. that dude was pretty loose. so ivey probably made the right play; just unlucky that kanter had him beat that time. |

I like the idea of Ram Vaswani, and I'll add more Europeans: Surinder Sunar, and (just for entertainment) the isle-of-Crete guy. |
