NickZepp 0 Posted February 28, 2008 Share Posted February 28, 2008 Phil is the shortstack but he has plenty of room to work with right now. The blinds are only at 40-80 I think and he has over a mil. Link to post Share on other sites
HubDub04 0 Posted February 28, 2008 Author Share Posted February 28, 2008 Hes got 16 bbs. I don't think he's too worried. I'm sure he has been in similar types of situations tons of times before and knows just how to handle it. He has 30 years of experience going for him. Link to post Share on other sites

NickZepp 0 Posted February 28, 2008 Share Posted February 28, 2008 Hand #129: Wei Kai Chang Eliminated in 7th Place ($172,370)Wednesday, February 27, 2008 11:33 PM PST The blinds are still at 40,000-80,000, with a 10,000 ante.Hand #129: Nam Le has the button in seat 5, Chang moves all in from middle position for 820,000, and Hellmuth calls from the small blind with AQ. The look on Chang's face tells us that he is dominated, and he shows KQ.The board comes 43229, and Hellmuth wins the pot with his ace high. Wei Kai Chang is eliminated in seventh place, earning $172,370.The final six players will take some time to verify their chip stacks and fill out their WPT bio sheets. We'll have official chip counts soon. But this looks to be a historic final table with Phil Ivey, Phil Hellmuth, and Nam Le. Stay tuned. Hellmuth should be 2nd in chips Link to post Share on other sites
HubDub04 0 Posted February 28, 2008 Author Share Posted February 28, 2008 BOOM! Just what I needed.

I'm gonna give Scottyno a run @ his $25.Off to bed now for real.Jon Link to post Share on other sites

GWCGWC 83 Posted February 28, 2008 Share Posted February 28, 2008 So this means Phil Ivey retains the insane feat of making a WPT FT every time he's cashed in a WPT event. That's just insane. Link to post Share on other sites

TB17 0 Posted February 28, 2008 Share Posted February 28, 2008 I dunno why everyone is saying that this FT is "historic". It's a tough FT but its not like Hellmuth and Ivey have never been at the same FT before.That said if anyone wants to bet Hellmuth vs Ivey with the field being a wash I'll bet up to 100 Link to post Share on other sites

HubDub04 0 Posted February 28, 2008 Author Share Posted February 28, 2008 I really don't understand why more people don't think Hellmuth is going to win or at least has a 50% chance of shipping it. I mean come on, it's Phil Hellmuth and his resume speaks for itself. Everyone knows Ivey is world class, but so is Nam Le imho. Everyone just loves to jump on the Ivey bandwagon because a lot of people don't like PH because of his table antics. But nearly all of the solid poker players out there recognize that PH has skills on a level most will never attain.Let me ask FCP this, if you replaced PH with Daniel Negreanu, would you still pick Ivey as the clear cut favorite? I don't think many would, even though I think Ivey is a better player than DN. But go ahead, jump on the Ivey bandwagon, everyone is doing it. Link to post Share on other sites
