Default Re: Update on Townsend/Farha/Baldwin Game Monday?

Let me put it this way, if he was a big winner, why would they go to the extremes to fit the game around him when he is in town with extra omaha games on the go.

This assumes you know how these games form. Is that a reasonable assumption? Do you play the Bellagio regularly. Do you play in the game? Did you notice that most of these games may be forming as a result of the WSOP being in town.

He is either a major catalyst in the game or he is a loser in it - no way he is taking more cash out of the game than he is putting in be it his cash or others stepping up to play with him when he is in town.

Based on your assumption that games form around him, he is a loser or catalyst. Seems probable, but on a unfounded assumption.

Your method of debate is actually pretty childish all in all. Maybe you should stick to colour by numbers and leave things like poker to the grown ups.
We are not talking poker play, we are talking poker gossip. Perhaps you don’t understand the context of the discussion. Don’t you find it strange to call gossiping a grown up activity. These aren’t serious discussions and they don’t warrant contemplative, serious answers.

Everytime someone makes a silly post about something they clearly know nothing about, some MORAN chimes in to say "Hey, that's silly. You clearly know nothing about this. Stfu, if you're going to make unfounded claims" [in a gossip forum]. Fall down some stairs and post a video please.

Wouldn't aba be able to make more multitabling 200/400+ on Full Tilt? Sure they don't run all the time but still. This is like 50 hands pr hour right? 4 tabling Full Tilt is like 400 hands pr hour. Plus isn't his edge bigger on FT? Seems like an ego thing to me.

lol? u realize that this live game is 5-8x as big as his online games? maybe more considering how deep they get and that there is often a 4k straddle.

This is prolly the largest big bet poker game ever played. Too bad there aren't any journalist to write about it. SICK action.

I’d really like Brian to lose though. Only cause he seems so boring in that radio interview. “My car was my biggest purchase…” WTF! 8mil + in 2 years and you’re buying a 90k car and have barely traveled. Give it all to Bobby Baldwin or start living it up. I really hope it wakes him up. Its sad to see an obviously smart guy not use his brain or even wanna party like a rockstar. I guess that's how he got good though. Putting on blinders FTW.

I don't understand you. He should go broke, just because he doesn't spend several thousands Dollars on Champagne Bottles..........

Meh...I've always thought of poker as a means to an end. I don't just get playing for the fun of it. I can barely play no money S&G's with my friends.
