Ban for looking into souls

Bonyadi Takes Another

Farzad Bonyadi, Michael Binger, and Chad Brown were all involved in an interesting hand. Binger made it 6,000 to go and Brown and Bonyadi called. Brown drew one, Binger drew two, and Bonyadi drew one. Brown made it 10,000 to go and Bonyadi made the call after Binger folded. "I paired," Brown announced as he mucked. Bonyadi turned over an ace-high low as he scooped up the chips.

I remember it was available legally for free online back then.
Check ESPN maybe?

If you look at the pokerdb, it's amazing how succesful the big game guys like Reese, Brunson, Baldwin etc are in this game.

Right now, reese is among the chip leaders, T. Brunson is chip leader, Greenstein is in, Berman, Grey. Is this game the main focus during the big game?

Not the main focus by any means, but it's probably one of the few venues on the planet where this game is played regularly anymore.

Some tourney donks have experienced a lot of success in this event, too (Ferguson, Williams, etc.)

Also, how often is this spread in the big game?

Lisandro Loses Chunk of His Stack

Sean "Sheiky" Sheikhan made it 25,000 to go and Jeffrey Lisandro raised it to 85,000. Sheikhan moved all-in for 142,000 total and Lisandro called. Sheikhan showed a 9 low and Lisandro showed a 10 low. After the hand, Lisandro is down to 209,000 and Sheikhan is up to 290,000.

After the hand, and for the second time this evening, Sheikhan slammed the table and yelled, "YEAH BABY! THAT'S HOW REAL (EXPLETIVE DELETED) DO IT!"



such an ass

Alaei won this event last year.

First time he had ever played NL 2-7. True story.

God ESPN coverage is horrible. Pretty much the regular all-in fest, but it is interesting to watch a non-HE game. But, FFS, do they really need to take a quarter of the broadcast to let us know Barry donates his winnings to charity and Ferguson can chop veggies with cards, and have Annie Duke explain how to catch a bluff.

Anyway, you may be able to find it on pokertube later today.
