Most of you don't appreciate how hard it is to cover all these tables.

A round later i had 253k and posted the BB. The button raised to 30k and i pushed with AKo. He thought for a long time and called with AQo, hit his Q and thast it. 43kish for my place, oh well try again next year.

Sorry to hear that, gg.

I can't believe people are making calls like that, another 220k give or take with AQo. I could never play in this tournament.

[/ QUOTE ]

I think button's call is pretty automatic with AQo. Your push could be a resteal. BB could push a lot of hands here, including weaker aces, KQ, and suited connectors. If I am in the BB this is an easy call. I don't know how you play the BB in this situation.

They are down to 150 players and officially one full day ahead of schedule.

Another way of looking at this is that they are five levels behind schedule. So, eventually, we're going to see some really deep stack no limit hold 'e being played.

Ahhh....is it more exciting to watch deep stacks go all-in wtth ATo vs. QQ?




Average stack ~ 584,867.
M ~ 28.

No Respect
Humberto Brenes raises to $32,000 under-the-gun. Doug Kim calls in the cut-off. Robert Isakson calls in the small blind. The flop falls 9diamond6heart5heart. Iaskson and Brenes check to Kim. Kim bets $70,000 and Isakson calls. Brenes stands up, points at himself, and says, "Didn't I raise? No respect." Brenes folds his hand. The turn is the 2club and Isakson checks. Kim bets $150,000 and Isakson moves all-in for $195,000 more. Kim calls and flips over 5spade5diamond. Isakson shows JspadeJdiamond. The turn is the Aheart and each players' chips are counted out. Both players have exactly the same amount of chips and Kim eliminates Isakson. Kim now has $928,000.


go tech go!

Also, seems like awful play by dude with JJ here.

Unreal. The cream really will rise to the top in a structure this deep.

For those that don't know Pokerdb shows Eric "Rizen" Lynch at $324,769 in cashes and 36 final tables at Pokerstars alone. $61,382 and 8 final tables at Party Poker.

And Prahlad Friedman or "Mahatma" on UB dominates the highest stakes NL cash games. There is always someone in High stakes No limit posting hands played against this guy. The guy seems to always be playing if you go to UB. I don't think he even requires sleep or food.

Chop Chop?
Kevin Nathan is traveling around the Amazon Room right now, asking all of the players if they want to chop. Currently, each player, if chopped, could walk away with $500,000. Needless to say, Nathan's request was unsuccessful.

So if you have the average chip stack, do you take the deal if you were the last to have to agree?
