timwakefield 68 Posted July 18, 2007 Share Posted July 18, 2007 yeah we get itSome of you are Atheist.and some Atheist go a step further to rag on religious peopleNo, I just don't think God would take an interest in random poker games. Link to post Share on other sites
Naismith 0 Posted July 18, 2007 Share Posted July 18, 2007 Anybody want to give me a recap?Lots of bad poker.Jerry Wang re-raised every other hand.Tuan Lam was clearly chip dumping to him before the heads up.Head ups, Lam was in position to get the stacks even when his AQ outflopped Wang's 88. Wang went runner-runner straight and became the nicest person to ever win the WSOP. Link to post Share on other sites
rogerwilco 0 Posted July 18, 2007 Share Posted July 18, 2007 I watched the whole table, and for me it started at 9PM and right now it's 1PM and I really need to go to bed Props to you. I wussed out after the dinner break for a couple hours. But I'm fit now. Link to post Share on other sites

sandwedge 30 Posted July 18, 2007 Share Posted July 18, 2007 I think he will do a lot of good with his money.I've actually fantasized about winning the main event and going out on the strip, finding a homeless person, and trying to help them get their life straight.and then the hookers and blow, of course.

Cappy37 0 Posted July 18, 2007 Share Posted July 18, 2007 Horrible way for Tuan to go out. Must've been disgusting.QFTI couldn't even fathom "losing 4 million dollars" on runner-runner like that.. Well, not like he would have been a lock to win if his queenball held.. but still.. I'm not entirely sold human beings are ever able to function emotionally for weeks after something like that. I mean, yeah, he'll go buy himself a house the size of Soldier field and cry himself to sleep at night but.. man.. I've cursed myself mentally for days after losing out on ten or twenty bux in a Stars tourney based on one bad play before a pay jump or inching up a FT slot or two but man... $4 million? I don't think anyone could honestly look in a mirror fully envision that kind of swing, and just say "ahhh f it, it's cool".. You'd need a couple of frisky strippers and strong bottle of whiskey just to begin that train of thought... Link to post Share on other sites
timwakefield 68 Posted July 18, 2007 Share Posted July 18, 2007 On the plus side, perhaps poker will get a boom similar to the 18-30 year-olds who caught on with Moneymaker, but it'll be middle-aged religious folk and they'll all suck at poker. Link to post Share on other sites

You'd need a couple of frisky strippers and strong bottle of whiskey just to begin that train of thought...Totally. Even worse was the atmosphere. Taking a huge lead, then a dagger hitting in the biggest event in poker, and hundreds of people either A) Gasping, B ) Going ballistic. I'd rather the AQ just bricked off.

It was all in preflop so it doesn't really matter what order they came out. Link to post Share on other sites
