LOL @ Gabe: "This is great example of a value bet from Doyle. He knows Guy missed his draw here."haha, nice one gabe.
Yeah...looked a lot more like a blocker bet to me. I mean, if Guy missed his flush draw, where's the value in the bet?

I thought Doyle's laydown against Gold was pretty amazing. Just sucks that on this particular result he had the best hand.Besides that hand I was pretty disappointed with his play tonight. (I haven't found myself saying that often)

The only real poker players in this game are Antonio, Doyle, and Patrik.Sammy looks out of his element.
Barry?????? Is he something above a real poker player???Good episode. I like Gabe, but sometimes he needs to stfu like where he said the Doyle value bet thing and on the AA hand with Antonio. Im 95% sure that Antonio was thinking of laying it down and wasnt just being an ass. Probably a bad bet there by Barry. Not sure if hes getting called by one pair there on the river almost ever.Preview for next week looks good. Hope it was edited to look like there was a big allin pot.

I'd agree with you, actually. I was surprised by a couple of moves that Doyle made.In the hand with Jamie I was nearly falling over myself waiting for Gold to go for the whole $500k, that would have been sweet. If Barry had played a few more hands and been a bit more active before he picked up 10-10 in the BB, I think Doyle might have re-popped with his AK and we could have had a big pot. But Doyle's a legend, the fact that he can make those kind of laydowns is exactly why he's the big papa.

Wow.So far so good.The table talk is getting a little old. Gold projecting "strength" vs. Doyle was interesting because it is such a classic example of someone believing he has the best hand. His opponent being able to read that and making the "wrong" play as a result. Gold is really coming across as a total Donk so far.
I think that's spot on. I wonder if Doyle shouldn't have checked the turn. Gold's going to fire the river regardless of his holding.

Good episode!I'm pretty sure Jamie is going to lose all his money in the next episode. Because if you watch the intro, you see Daniel sitting in Jamie's seat to the left of that billionaire. So Jamie probably lost all his money and didnt rebuy. Cant wait to see that!

For everyone that said "Jaime's playing so much better"That might have been some of the worst poker I've ever seen by JG. Antonio is DEFFFinitely scared money, it's so obvious in all of the shows. Playing way over his head, maybe he should be out in the desert riding camels as he so eloquently put it. Good show so far, Guy is my new hero.

I dunno, the more I see of Antonio the more I think he's really good... Then he plays a hand and my opinion of him drops again! When he's folding and observing the other players though he seems to be pretty rocking.

There is a TON of jockeying around still going on here. It is relatively early in the Game. Players like Doyle have a Big Picture perspective. That was what let him lay down that hand vs. Gold. He KNOWS he will have better spots to get him money in the pot.

Does anyone have the breakdown of what everyone bought in for? They said there was over 5 Mil on the table. 8 players X 500k = 4 Mil, who bought in for more, and how much more. Also did anyone notice Gold said he has all his money on the table???To the earlier comment about Farha, I think that he is sooo much better short handed that it is a little tough for him to be as loose full ring especially with other loose big stack there. Sammy can donk around with 100K, I don't think even he will be as follish with 500K +

It looks like Jamie does go broke when he puts all his money in and Antonius quickly calls. However in a previous episode he does mention that he was only going to play half a day because of some prior business engagement so that is not sor sure.

I keep getting the impression that Jamie wants to be Farha...but doesn't really have attitude for it.Antionio is so scared, lol. On the AAA hand - which I don't think the call is horrible given that Barry would have played a flush that way - but, it does seem like an autocall not a five minute delay call. Anyway, after watching how scared he looked I started wondering just how much money he has. I think he is a good poker player, but putting too much on the line in one game can make anyone look bad.

Why do people keep saying that Antonio is out of his league? He might be, but that hand where he had AA, it is not the best looking board for him. 3 clubs on the flop. It is very possible for Greenstein to have a flush as Antonio did limp in with AA. That is sometimes the problem with limping in with AA, you can't outright play it full speed ahead, even a set of AA is vulnerable, especially with that board. BG bet the whole way, even when the overcards flopped BG still be, not once did he check. Of course Antonio could've thrown in a raise on the turn, but he might've just been cautious and wanted to get to the river cheap or hope for the board to pair.

I agree, I believe there was also a str8 possibility too (could be wrong)

I remember someone saying in their blog that the only people that are playing with their own money in that game are Patrik, Doyle, Guy, and Gold.I'm sure there are a number of weathly businessmen that like the opportunity to let a world class poker player like Antonio win them money.

I really enjoyed Benyamine talking about his plan to make the smallest bluff ever in response to Jamie Gold's plan to make the biggest bluff ever. Nobody will ever believe he could make such a small bluff. Hilarious stuff.Then running over Gold with 72... Benyamine is my new hero.F
