  2. Yeah, I'm a G. Smith fan. Hope he takes it down.
  3. I don't quite remember, I THINK it was on Learn from the Pro's on FSN where DN says that he is way ahead of Matusow in heads up matches. Apparently, they used to always play heads up. (Before the poker boom)
  4. Numbers say that Jamie Gold is #1Those numbers mean sh.itChip is a cash game player.Go to the commerce and you'll see that players like Gabe Thaler are great players but their "numbers" are don't reflect it.Most big names didn't even play tournaments before.
  5. Tx for having the standings up.Phew, at least my important horses are still in.Sitting in last doesn't look so bad now.Tomorrow should be lots of fun sweatin.
  6. I wouldn't mind it so much as I had Ivey losing in the quarterfinals. I think most people have Ivey going into the semi's at least. Who is over 500 at picking today? lolI'm glad I didn't bet that much. lolMy final 8 were:Antonius, JuandaGreenstein, Tuan Le, Nam Le, Chan, Ivey, BoothAs long as these guys are still in I don't mind having a bad day one. Deeper points are worth a ton.
  7. I disagree completely! Doyle is not a stupid man, he is not into all math/game theory sh.it, at that time Doyle had a huge stack and Reese had the chip lead.There weren't colluding or teaming up, when Doyle raised preflop and Chip reraised, he's basically saying/representing a huge pair. Doyle called and was sending out the message "I have a big pair too" It came a baby rainbow flop. Doyle lead out and said (in his mind to Chip) "this pot is mine" Chip knows that Doyle didn't hit that flop and wouldn't lead out with ace king. Instead of playing it sneaky (smooth call/trap) and creating a b
  8. Either way, I hate playing AK oop. I would push pre with AK. I might call with a pair, if it's a baby flop, you might win a big pot.Calling with AK in position isn't so bad.Plus, I squeeze or sandwich play is usually when you know for sure you have the worst hand preflop.
  9. Simple. Borgata and it's not even close.Trop is decent too, I only stayed for a couple hours though. Borg is dashit!Foxwoods, the place is fine but the rake is just dumb. The 2/5 game charges $10hr iirc. I was there twice. People are nice, game is soft but hard to beat the house. Higher limits aren't that bad but low limits are robbery.As most people know, the Borg drink girls are the best in AC.The Friday afternoon tourney also has great value.Good luck
  10. Pokerwire says Gus wonCardplayer says Sheiky wonWTF?edit:Pokerwire jsut corrected it. Sheiky won. Fck!
  11. Sure, for the hell of it why not? I'll take Tilly.$50 to your $70?I won't do it straight up. You interested?
  12. Hey, I'm still here man.How can I send you the picks?
  13. I don't have a Bodog account, anyone know what books are taking bets for this?
  14. I just PM'd Hoosier & BK, I want to send them my picks. I've filled out the brackets already.
  15. Great idea!! How do we do it and who holds the money?I'm in! I'm also down for some side bets, (max 500) I'm doing this exact same challenge with a friend a mine, typical points system (similar to the one used for the FCP WSOP pool)
  16. The online game is much tougher than a live game. I'd say a 5-10nl live game is equivalent to a 1-2nl online game.
  17. I'm not so sure he's that willing to play. The big live game has been on since the five diamond started. The million hit he took during the WSOP I think has really put a dent in his confidence or playing roll. Pretty sure he'd rather play live than online when the stakes are that high. I could see him playing if there wasn't a live game.He's a big game player but certainly not a regular. I think we'll see him talk more big game poker after a nice 10k buy in score.It's a smart move not playing in those games if you are not 100% sure you can beat it in the long run. Look at Lindgren, DN's
  18. The bust out hand was fine. Not much you can do there. The numbers are big but still a little short stacked. If he had over 100xbb then that would be a different story, good pro's don't bust with top pair in deep stack pots.DN showed me he can play a short stack as good as the great short stack players this tourney. (famous ones anyways) You always here of the big chip stacks that DN or Lindgren have when dominating a tournament. This tourney DN was short stacked quite a bit but managed to hang tough. I've never played with Johnny Chan, TJ Cloutier, Men, or Allen Cunningham but I've read
  19. TY. I had the same problem as well. How do I get the browser plug in?
  20. Nice to see good posts at FCP. Sometimes I can't be bothered even posting cause everyone loves to flame and the content is juvenile.Well thought out post. TY
  21. Very odd.I was positive you couldn't do that. Even asked customer support once and they said no. Either way, I'm still satisfied with what we've got now. Until they have serious competition Neteller's the way to go.
  22. It's a bad game, $10hr to the house and you get to only buy in for 50xbb.Most casino's in Canada are at least 100xbb. Give Foxwoods credit though, the people keep going so why change? I went a couple times and forced myself to play in the bigger games, over my BR but I'll have a chance at least. The 1-2nl is very very tough to beat and the 2-5 is tough also. Alot of fish but the you'll never be able to beat the house at those levels.Take a bus to Borgata, the game is better and the juice is a little less. Nice place to boot.
