Re: WSOP on ESPN thread (7/17) ($1500 PLH and $1k NLH w/rebuys)
Watched NL event last night, Tommy Vu infomercial was classic. I am very sad to see the Hellmuth 11th bracelet table was not televised. Are the TV tables determined beforehand? I can't imagine they would pass on that if not.

Haralabos Voulgaris.
And the PH table was not televised because Bluff Mag had the rights to it. Pokertube it for the full table.

The $1K NLH (rebuy) event was so bad that the last few hands shown were all ins for huge amounts of chips like the players had already made their deals and just wanted to end it. A3o instacall for 1/2 his stack? [/ QUOTE ] IIRC the stacks were pretty shallow by the end and I was impressed that such an unimaginative player (Chu) could make such an obscurely-correct call.

Its early but it seems like the excessive celebrations have been cut down some. There are still people that get up and high 5 their friends but it doesnt seem as bad as previous years. Its too early to tell but that would be nice.
I have actually enjoyed watching these.

The only things I've enjoyed in this year's coverage is all of the side shots and extra goings-on in the background. The poker is just the bustouts and standard w/e. Nothing interesting or controversial enuff to really get a long thread going.
I can't wait for the Hellmuth one when he's going for his 12th. That one is suppose to be a 2-hr show. These 1-hr final tables seem useless and boring to me now. With all of the filler bustouts and what have you. They gotta be 2 hrs if they are gonna show anything good GAME-wise. Still, a pretty presentation tho (Brandi and Cindy Kay included [img]/images/graemlins/wink.gif[/img] )

What were the two hands Gavin Smith had the bet about? Was it 9-5o and A-2s? Did they say that heads up 9-5 is a favorite? That seems wierd to me, I thought maybe I misunderstood. [/ QUOTE ] 82s vs. 95o. Friedberg had the 82s. Turns out (shocker) 95o is a 60% fav.

I love Vahedi not realizing the guy had a straight draw; everything about his attitude just screams huge fish. He's spewing chips left and right and then when someone shoves a S+FD it's "unbelievable".
I really wanted Tommy Vu to win so he could start doing poker seminars!
