[ QUOTE ]
Kevin Kim Flops A Boat Ryan Lawrence raised 40,000 and Kevin Kim called. The flop was J99. Both players checked. The turn was the T. Lawrence checked, Kim bet 40,000 and Lwrence check-raised to 120,000. Kim called. The river was the A. Lawrence fired out 200,000 and Kim called. Lawrence showed 5-5, while Kim flipped over J-J for a full house. "I thought he had quads," Kim said. "I was scared." Hmmm, I thought Jennifer Tilly had busted out awhile back. Anyone else think that this is just terrible? [/ QUOTE ] Lololol at least say, 'I thought he hit his A for a bigger boat...' Jesus.... Though, to be results oriented, he wasn't getting a raise called so that's about as much value as he was going to get.

Unlike last year, the pros seem to be more highly represented. I like the chances of at least one pro making the FT of the Main Event.
I don't know about the success of 2+2 players compared to last year since I wasn't around though.

It's possible I'm not remembering someone else, though.

[ QUOTE ] Not that I'm any good at MTT poker or anything, but how the heck do you end up all in preflop with Tens there when you've got a reasonable chipstack. [/ QUOTE ] Go watch the last US Poker Championship and you will see two guys 5 and 6 bet each other with complete trash. I think both went on to the FT, not sure. If you have a read your opponent is weak, then why not get it all-in? [/ QUOTE ] Obv that's the answer, but that's a hell of a read. Unlike my girl's call with AJ vs TT, when she was short enough that a coinflip was pretty obv, TT's just ahead of so few hands in a dude's likely range in that spot. Seems like Gus had way too many chips to be flipping there.

[ QUOTE ] justin, congratulations [/ QUOTE ] i hate myself [/ QUOTE ] <3 to Jurollo!!! I didn't have anything to do with it and I'm still proud of your showing at this WSOP. You made several years worth of a hard working Engineers salary in a few weeks. While it isn't the windfall that could have been, it's an awesome accomplishment and a great 'start' on what's to come. gg bro.

Even if his opponent plays AK and overpairs only, Gus is at 33% equity already and almost there. Also, I assume Gus is playing for first, unlike everyone else who is playing to make money, and even taking the worst of it to accumulate chips may be a good strategy for finishing first.

[ QUOTE ] Quote: Still, when going deep in the WSOP, I think it's fair to be results oriented. WOW [/ QUOTE ] You are telling me that deep in the WSOP ME, after getting sucked out on by a terrible call as a big stack, that's not the one time you might be a little affected by the loss? [/ QUOTE ] I didn't know we were allowed to be results oriented based on the situation. Thanks, you've opened up a whole new world to me!
