  1. My opinion of this book has changed since July. In July I was playing low limit o8 and limit hold'em primarly. Now I play every game in this book. Since then I have progressed from .50-1 to the middle limits. I have to say, that as a beginner I did not get much out of what they were saying in SSII, but now I understand the concepts and theories in the books much better. I used to think the o8 section was so-so, but now that I have some experienced in that game, I think it's the best part of the book. Now that I've read the triple draw section, I can honestly say it would of taken me much longe
  2. I think Ivey is. Chip is a legend, but I think Ivey just doesn't have his record, because he hasn't been around long enough.
  3. Shannon Elizabeth takes the cake here. No questions. I'm rooting for her and I was rooting for Tilly. It would be cool to see them both make the final table. Then they could throw James Woods in there. That would make an awesome final table. 1 in a billion chance though, if that.
  4. John Juanda, David the Dragon Pham, and Phil Ivey in my opinion. I think the media is too busy looking for who puts on the best show like Phil Hellmuth (not overrated, but annoying) and Mike the Mouth.
  5. No offense Daniel, but you are a little overrated right now too. You had a hot year last year, but I don't know if you can hold your title as Player of the Year. Your in my top 10 list of all time though. You still have to beat some of the greats like Ungar, Ivey, T.J., and Hellmuth.
  6. Ng is, because she get all this attention, but I've never seen her at a regular final table. I do not count women's events, because they are excluding at least 80 of the top 100 players in the world. Annie Duke is also overrated. Did you see how long it took her to get that bracelet. I don't know enough about Harman, but I've only seen her at one final table on TV so I bet she too is overrated. I'm not sexist, but I believe this is true for all sports. Women players are overrated. They say Annika whatever is better than Tiger Woods. Come on? However, this is a game where both sexes can master.
  7. Call, 2-1 pot odds. You could be a favorite and you aren't dominated unless your opponent has AA which is highly unlikely. Call me a loose player, but unlike Dan I think this call is a no-brainer.
  8. Yes, you are more than likely behind, but pot odd should make you call. They put in 4,000, you already put in 1,200, plus there is another 400 from the big blind. That is a total of 5,600. You have to put in 2,800 more giving you 2-1 odds. You have to call. Unless they have AA you are no more than a 3-1 dog. It could also be a coin flip, they could have a8-a2, or they could have a hand like kq or kj. Your pot odds are too good to fold.
  9. I wonder what this is going to be. Maybe FCP will begin a poker site. I'm hoping for free stacked games though. I want to play Dan so bad, but for play money. Maybe he'll be playing stacked online. Good go getting out of Poker Mountain. That site had like 2 games going at a time and had like a max of 5 people on it.Hopefully we will all get something free though whether it is a t-shirt, a game, or an entry to a tournament. I just don't want this great secret to be a 30% bonus at blibbideblobidy poker. I'll even take free lessons. My partypoker results show lately.
  10. We all benefit. Does that mean we'll get free money and FCP is going to open it's own poker sites. I went to Poker Mountain. It was the worst site I have ever been to. Like 5 people were actually logged on and they only offer Omaha and Hold'em. I thought Poker Champs sucked, but then I saw this.
  11. I think Daniel is going to quit writing his blog after this comment. If he did I couldn't blame him.
  12. April 25 WPT Bellagio 25,500 0 - -25500 This can't be true. It should be 0 0, because you got a free entry in the event for winning a regular season event.You have to configure that WSOP in your next response. Hope you get better luck in the WPT events this season then you did in the WSOP.
  13. Are you the same person who wrote that people are dying in Africa? It was metaphoric. Some of the things Daniel writes he deserves to get picked on for like his post about going shopping, but not this. Although this tournament is not exactly a war with guns it can easily be compared to a war, which is what Dan decided to compare it to. You must be the same person who wrote the Africa thing, because I don't think it is possible to find 2 people who write things like that one one site.
  14. 87 suited, no way. These hands are only good in multiway pots. However if I was in first position I may put some pressure on my opponent. I rather have king 2 offsuit thought. This hand is not that good heads up unless the blinds are small where you could break your opponent.
  15. I think I would raise on the turn, call another bet, but just call on the river they he makes his hand. This is, because raising may knock him out on the turn. However, it is important to check on the river, because your opponent will call or raise you if you are beat or more than likely fold to you if you have the worst hand.
  16. Oh no! I feel really bad that I had to get shoes today while someone probablly died. Although they weren't $500 shoes like Daniel bought, I should of went to Africa to save everyone instead. (What's up with Daniel posting the price of his clothing? Everyone already knows he is rich. And whats the difference between $500 shoes and $50 shoes?At the end of the day your feet are going to stink.) In conclusion, this is the dumbest post I have ever seen. I thought Daniel's post was bad, but this, hey why are you cooling yourself down when people are dying in Africa? Come on.
  17. Phil Ivey is the second greatest player of all time in my opinion. Only Ungar was better, but he's not around anymore so Phil is currently the best in the world in my opinion.
  18. I see no problem with Chris being called Jesus, but the unabomber killed people. If someone lost a loved one to this guy I can see why they would take offense to this nickname. Maybe some highly religous people take offense to Chris being called Jesus, but I personally don't see this as a problem. It is not at all negative while the name "Unabomber" is.
  19. If you don't care about what people are saying how come you are responding to it? It sounds like you care to me. Good luck with the main event though. You are due to win a big one.
  20. Didn't this guy go to jail? I heard he was dealing drugs or something.
