Phil doesnt really play high stakes at all and T.J. has admitted himself he isnt a good cash game player

Good Luck with everything...

I was online playing a guy got quads three out of four hands and his starting hands:9-4 off (4 nines)9-3 off(4 ninesQ-3 off(4 Qs)Like thats insane!

My former college roomate is an assistant producer with the Travel Channel and worked to get the WPT on that channel. I mentioned this to him and he said just what Daniel said...they like the ratings poker brings but don't want to become a Gambling Network. Also, that the ratings were pretty poor for the Poker Corner. Last, one of the top producers with the station said in a meeting quote "Let's not overplay a good thing...analyzing dumb poker moves is a bit much...I love the traffic poker brings but let's not take away from shows that started this network"

I don't understand why in society we tip only certain professions? We don't tip our garbage men or service clerks?

I got Xbox recently and World Poker Championship... I didnt return it because I wanted to play it online. It is pretty good but only when playing it online because it sucks otherwise. I really don't see the point of it at all considering if you want to play for free you can go to just about every poker site and play with really people...

I was that happy to make my first final table out of 800...but when I got the first win I thought I was the best player in the world !

I am not one to be mean to other people ...but come on this is an online poker fan site and you really shouldnt take any "personal attacks" seriously

In a tournament I saw a hand like this:Two players to the flop one :Person 1: 10 10 Person 2: 8 9 Flop: 10 10 Queen After flop, person two semi-bluffs all in with nothing but a inside straigt draw)Turn 7 River 6 Quad tens losing to a running straigh flush...

I read the story at cardplayer.com:http://www.cardplayer.com/poker_magazine/a....php?a_id=14268...does anyone know if another game was played or if any of the players responded??

How about getting a job?

eactly my point you all think you are so good and so mature and so smart cuz of what you see on t.v.

Reguardless of how much money teens are up online or how could they think they are poker isnt good for them...they think they know everything

We all pretty much know that poker is mostly skill with some luck involved...but when there is 5,000 people in the tournament how can any skill remain? I think in terms of overall purse and money it is the biggest tournament but it could come to being as prestigious as winning the lottery (WOW! How lucky are you??)Daniel/others- With all of the people in the tournament now, does it loose some prestige in your mind...as in to win it just takes too much luck?

The WSOP website predicts around 5,000 people next year! This sounds more like who can be the luckiest...but I also think this fad will eventually where down.

I think that would be a good idea, but considering that 5,000 people are expected to play in next years main event, I think you would be throwing the money away (not saying that no one should play in it). But a satelitte seems a little more reasonable. It seems the Main Event is becoming a lot more about luck...consider what Phil Hellmuth said: "imagine 2600 players in a room flipping coins, 1300 flip heads and move one . . . eventually three will flip heads ten times in a row. Good luck trying to beat the guy that has ten coin flips in a row go his way!"

"I CAN CONFIRM THAT DANIEL IS NOT OUT AT BELLAGIO. HE IS DOING WELL.DAVID PHAM JUST WISHED HIM GOOD LUCK DURING A BREAK IN THE ACTION." Quoted from recpoker.com

Where did you find out??
