my theory that it's barry greenstein is based on a couple of things:1) one time durrr was sitting and ivey asked him to leave knowing that seda was going to sit down.2) the HSNL guys at 2+2 are not impressed with seda's game, meaning that he probably is more likely a live player (or that he is not a huge internet winner like antonious, townsend, etc.)3) he only plays ivey at ft which would lead me to believe that they have some sort of history or whatever.4) he plays much more passive than the typical internet HU specialists. from what i've seen of barry's play on HSP, he is not a ram-and-jam player.5) barry would probably have enough money, or get a big enough loan from ivey to play. the list of players who would be able to do this is VERY small.of course, i'm just making wild speculation, but it makes the most sense to me. hense, it is my thoery.
Well, your explanation definitely makes the most sense so far. As you said, the pro's that could afford to do this that are NOT already on full tilt would greatly be limited. Bob, if your still reading, do you know if it would be possible for DN to play on another site? (Not speculating that Seda is DN by any means, just wondering to help figure out the Barry contract questions.)Either way, I am guessing we are going to find out within the next 48 hrs. who this dude is after all this money he's gone through.Bob! you are still reading. Puke, Ivey has 3/4 Million now. This guy is on life-tilt.

Okay, Seda is by all accounts an awful player. Barry Greenstein plays a fair amount online, and this is definitely not characteristic of his play. I'm 99.99999% sure it's not Barry.Think of the people that could afford to play in this game and win/lose this kind of money. I agree it's probably somebody that Ivey has history with, but I'd almost guarantee it's not another full tilt pro or someone loosely affiliated with them. Here's my short list:1) Phil Hellmuth - noted for spewing online, can easily afford these stakes, talks a lot of shit and plays Ivey a ton off of the internet2) Eli Elezra - can afford it, plays on FTP quite a bit3) Sammy Farha - how has nobody even considered this to be an option?Those are my picks, and I'm leaning towards Sammy more than anyone else

Alright, before I said that the Barry thing made sense, but I do agree with you cardcore that it is probably not Barry. Barry has a much better tilt factor than that, not to mention that whoever Seda is, got it all in with the worst of it numerous times, in some cases sucking out. As to your choices though,1. Poker Brat- Kinda doubting this one, just because I have read his blogs and don't believe I have EVER EVER heard anything from anyone about Phil losing that much at 1 time. Also, he did not even play in the 500k HSP on GSN, probably because of stakes that high. (Also heard he was weary about even doing the first HSP for 100k because of same thing.) So, doubting P.H.2. Eli- Not sure about this one, but would assume that he would be smarter than to keep buying in for lesser amounts than Ivey hu at such high levels. Also, he seems to have a better steam factor than this dude.3. Could easily see Farha being the case here. Deep pockets and pride seem to make it tough for him to quit early. Also, reading one of Sbrugby's blogs, said that he and Sammy would play for stakes that high with one being a $1Million loser not an abnormality, so he could definitely fit the bill.DISCUSSION!

Sorry, 1 more thing. Not being afraid to gamble with the worst of it all in is something that we have seen Sammy contemplate many times on HSP by putting the pressure on the other guy to call a huge amount. This is fun stuff, I hope we can watch more of this in the future.

Barry was going to his room at 10 am here after what I assume was a long ass session....he's probably still asleep and most likely not playing 500/1k on the commerce wireless. GG that theory.It's probably some rich fish that doesn't care.

1. Please never call anyone "Poker Brat" again...please.2. Hellmuth has blown his balls for like 600k playing chinese...3. Hellmuth has more mobney than just about any other poker player out there. 4. it's still almost certainly not him, he has too much respect for Ivey to try and play him 500/1k.

OUCH! LOL, tough love from the GOD of this forum. I'll take it as constructive criticism so thx JC. But, true, PH blows his load for that much in Chinese, never heard of it happenin on the internet. And, if he didn't care about the money or high blinds, then why didn't we see him on the 500k HSP? Just as he didn't want to get embarrassed on TV with those stakes, I don't think he wants the whole world to see him on the internet lose that much as well IMHO. (But hey, you probably know the guy, and I could only dream of meeting/playing him.)Also, you didn't mention anything about my and cardcore analysis of Farha. Love, -The Noob
