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.

Jamie is the living proof that WSOP ME shouldn't be changed in any way. Every once in a while we get a guy like Jamie

A couple observations...

1: When Doyle asked Jamie if he would show him his hand, I thought he was rope-a-doping him. I was surprised he folded, but not shocked.

I just think ultimately, Doyle didn't want to lose a 500K pot to Jamie there (especially drawing dead) and have to listen to it for the rest of his life, which he surely would have.

2: It seems Jamie Gold has finally realized that absolutely no one respects his game and that will probably never change. Therefore, Jamie's goal now, as he's stated ad nauseam, is to be 'the best bluffer ever', which will now be his mantra until he finally loses all his money, which he will eventually do.

On a side: Being a picky little bitch, I can't stand Gold's new horrible habit of lip-smacking/chewing-air thing that he does when people bet at him and he is figuring an amount to raise back.

"12,000..."
*lip-smack* *chew air* *chew air*
"I raise..."


Can't wait until next week...
