    Me Ft Players

    in General Poker Forum

    I was lucky enough to be there on Sunday (Monday morning) for the final 11. Here are my thoughts after watching them play.Seat 1 - Jon Kalmar - My impression of him was that he was not a great player. He was very animated at the table and didn't seem to be paying attention to every hand. He continually would fold his hand and then go talk to his wife. ( I may be partial because his drunk friend kept bumping into me and was annoying the whole crowd)Seat 2 - Lee Childs - Very inexperienced in that it seemed easy to push him off handsSeat 3 - Philip Hilm - Not afraid to push chips into the middle at any point, preflop, or post flop. It's easy to see he's experience and will be a big threatSeat 4 - Jerry Yang - Probably the biggest wild card. He seemed aggressive and a good decision maker, however, he kept backing down when raised. It was very interesting because mutlitple times when he was pushed all in, he was very active, standing up, counting his chips, but then each time he backed down. It seemed like he wasn't willing to take a risk of missing the final table. Either he will be more ready to take a chance tonight or will continue to play passive after re-raised. Seat 5 - Raymond Rahme - seemed very tight and patient. He walked away from the table for probably 12-15 of the 30 hands, 10-handed. I think he went to smoke and just walked around for an extended amount of time.Seat 6 - Tuan Lam - I was very impressed with is play. Very agressive and confident.Seat 7 - Alex Kravchenko - Would not have been at this table without a bad call by Philip. Seat 8 - Lee Watkinson - He has the most experience so he should be a favorite. He was the only one not pumping his fists when it went down to 9.Seat 9 - Hevad 'Rain' Khan - I know people are very high on him but he seemed very overmatched. I have confidence that he makes good poker decisions but I didn't feel that impressed with his table presence. More experienced players should be able to get him off his game.Here is my order of probability they will win.1. Philip Hilm 2. Lee Watkinson3. Tuan Lam4. Raymond Rahme5. Jerry Yang6. Jon Kalmar7. Alex Kravchenko8. Hevad Khan9. Lee Childs

    I am headed to Vegas this weekend and am staying at the RIO. For anyone that is there, have things calmed down around the RIO after over half of the field has been eliminated or should I expect things to be crazy around the area still this weekend?

    Anyone think the bubble effect in this tourney will be the opposite to what it normally is? Everyone will be playing aggressive coz its 'the bubble', but imo, there wont be many people holding on for the $10 pay day (or whatever it is). So perhaps it will be right to tighten up on the bubble? opinions?
    The bubble is going to go by so fast that strategy won't even matter IMO.

    While I understand the logistical problems of moving bonus money over, it is frustrating.The majority of the bonus money was given as a benefit of staying with FCP through the latest transition. That said, I don't think anyone would question that the transition did not go well and the new site never got near what was promised originally. Although personally, I have cleared quite alot of my bonus, I would have cleared alot more if the room was always filled with games and tournaments were more available (or at least more full).I feel that the loyalty that myself and others had was rewarded with a bonus and then taken away.I love PokerStars, I play there already, however the lack of even a portion of the bonus money transferring is extremely disappointing.
