High Stakes Poker thread (11/5 - 500k buyin - Spoilers expected)

[Daniel Magix]

Anyone else notice how extremely crowded the table looks, with all of those stacks of cash piled up around each player? They have friggin walls built up acting like little cubicles around everyone. Almost comical. Big value chips woulda served the same purpose and would have been less cumbersome to the players - but then America wouldn't get the real sense of how much cash is at stake in this game.

Oh yeah, and I am hoping like hell that the PA vs Gold all-in is legit, and that PA is victorious. Will Gold re-buy if he gets stacked? If he wants to be the world's best bluffer, I think he has to.

I don't know if this has been addressed as of yet, but I actually really like Doyle's fold having Jamie nutted spades vs spades. He read Jamie for strength, he just forgot to factor just how bad a player Jamie is. I've had this type of thing happen a few times myself before, where I make a big fold based on my perception of my opponents strength, and it turns out they just thought their overpair or whatever was the nuts. But man, would I have loved to see Doyle felt Jamie.

P.S. Also, I can't imagine Jamie has made a ton more $$$ since his WSOP win, and if we go with him getting ~4 million from it, which is generous, is he REALLY dumb enough to buy in for 15%+ of his net worth?

don't know anything more specific than this.

jamie was in AC ... bought into a big nl game where most players bought 25 to 45k... he bought in for 400k... within 3 hours he was busto, with his mother in tow he left the card room ...

i don't think he's killin any games since the ME win. maybe his games back in LA... that's even doubtable.

Did anybody else notice they were playing for huge amounts of money? I kept forgetting until theyd remind me again 5 minutes later!

Did you also know that this was the biggest televised cash game in history?

[PorkchopDJG]

This was easily the best poker I have ever watched on TV.
It was nice to actually watch and learn from HSP again and not watch Eli, Farha and Gold raise each other with nothing and spew chips on silly all-ins and such.
I can't wait for next week.
I hope Gold gets felted so bad.

I think I read somewhere that Gold wins 400k or 600k in this session.

and if not mistaken from PA! (watches all the Antonius fanboys in this forum go into a state of shock)

The As hitting the turn was the best card in the deck IMO. I woulda' called before Jamie even said "raise".

Come find me at the $100 tables beyotches and get you some. I'll be the guy shoving with any flush against habitual bluffers. [img]/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img]

Did i read it correctly?
People are saying that Laliberte played well?

Oh my god....

This guy is a great businessman and Cirque du Soleil is awesome, but he is a terrible poker player, that couldn't beat any online game.Not even Nl10.

He is a an overcard chaising never bluffing predictable T7o limping...well, i don't want to call him moron, because he is successfull in life and has more than 2+2 probably has combined...let's just call him poker moron.
