i believe PA had KK here, and they had a big prop bet that if one of em would show down an Ace they had to pay the other person. So pretty much only hand he was scared of here was JJ.

Read it BT's blog.

So Townsend's $1.8 mil is still the largest pot ever played next to Beal vs. the Corp? (They had some bigger ones right?)

I've never seen any reporting on pot size, but they were playing HU limit with blinds at 50k-100k. You'd need to do some serious 3-betting for a pot to reach $1.8m, even at those limits.

[suzzer99]

Didn't they get up to $100k/$200k for a bit?

Yeah... This seems very strange to me, but maybe they were just kinda of clapping because there was finally a lot of action, and would have done it if PA took it down too?

This is basically the same thing as casino employees cheering for someone at a poker table. It's just bad.

I thought they clapped for ivey cuz hes a fulltilt pro

[Paul B.]

They were probably clapping because they watched a WSOP final table on TV where the crowd claps after every hand. They probably didn't know any better.
