David O'Neal Is Eliminated By Justin King

Before the flop O'Neal raised to 24,000 and King called in the small blind. They checked the {A-Spades}{3-Hearts}{5-Clubs} flop and the {7-Spades} on the turn, but when the {J-Spades} hit on the river and King again checked, O'Neal moved all-in 260,000.

It was a huge overbet (there was only about 60K in the pot) and King asked, "Why would you bet so much?" O'Neal didn't reply at first, but as King thought over the situation and asked the same question again O'Neal just shrugged. King announced his call and turned over {A-Hearts}{J-Hearts}, which beat O'Neal's pocket Queens. He was eliminated and King is now up to 1,080,000.

This is what happens when they try to play after the flop.

wow that was one of the worst played hands i've seen yet today
...what makes someone who has invested so much time and money into this event decide that this is a good play?
i hope he never forgives himself and has nigtmares about that play for the rest of his life
...and to think what someone else (me, you, jesus, etc) would have done in that situation and how nice it would be to still have a shot this deep in the tourney...
...clearly im disgusted

Isaac Haxton Wins A Huge Pot

With nearly a half million in the pot already and the board reading {9-Clubs}{6-Hearts}{A-Hearts}{8-Hearts}{9-Diamonds} Haxton made a 250,000 bet and Robin Bergren called. He turned over {K-Spades}{K-Clubs} which was 2nd best to Haxton's {A-Diamonds}{2-Diamonds}. That pot pushed Haxton up to 1,400,000.

It seems that every minute or so someone is all in and eliminated. What the hell is going on?

Has anyone played with Tobey Maguire? He got pretty damn deep this year, even after running KK into AA at least twice. Anyone that can comment on his game?

[/ QUOTE ]

He has some game. Very tight preflop but aggressive when he plays and capable of the odd big move. Very composed all the time and thinking player.
