Thanks for starting the thread. Totally forgot about this tournament but I should have remembered since Daniel and all the other players who are part of the Real Deal Show at The Venetian are playing Day1A so that they can be at the Grand Opening of their show tomorrow.Here's the link to the updates from the WPT.http://liveupdates.worldpokertour.com/tour.../?x=updatesnews

Negreanu Folds Kings PreFlopMonday, October 20, 2008 05:35 PM PDT After a series of raises, Matt keikoan moves all in for 29,800. Negreanu agonizes for serval minutes before folding pocket kings face up!Keikoan shows the A but chooses not to show his other hole card. any chance he moves in with AK? i find it very unlikely

In the video interview DN says that Ivey and him now have the 200k bet on for every tournament they play now?!? Ridiculous
i find it more rediculous that ivey is going to attempt to gro a fro. i think he will hate it at lose the bet after not too much longer

Me too, if he had AK he probably would either muck it, or show both cards. Doubt he would show just the A.

If he had just AK, i think he would show just the A.EDIT: What's funny is in PokerVT, DN says never fold Kings... He said he did it once and his opponent showed QQ

Guaranteed he had AA.. if he had AK he'd want to show Daniel that he is " on his level" .. I dont know why people freak out when someone shows one card.. It would have been awesome if he had showed a K though:)
LOL QTF. Would have been sick

Stopped by the Bellagio today for a bit. Had Dad in tow so we laid low, went out to look at the fountains on the balcony during their Break, all the usual suspects were there.and LOL at Ivey's fro. It's about one inch out and ...well....he looks better bald imo.Had quick hellos with DN, he and Doyle were giving each other the business a bit.Surreal moment...in walks a guy I was sure I knew, could not tell if I had played with him before, etc. Could not place the name.Then in comes Helmuth, grabs the guy and starts pimping him all over the room, going table to table.It was Michael Phelps! Pretty awesome. Everyone wanted to get a picture/autograph etc. (I stayed out of the way).Could not get a chip count for crap, the Fontana lounge is a horrible venue to watch poker. we had to go and I have no idea where anyone is chip wise.Off to dinner at the Wynn again...GL to DN, JC and anyone else from FCP. :club:

gl DN and JC TID, would be nice to see a final table with a few fcper's. hey nutzI know what you mean with the chip counts, I either counted on the tourney directors who I knew, or Daniel himself, or the WTP web site for updates in between levels lol. The only 2 days I knew the chip counts all the time was the last 2 days when it was down to 3 tables and the final table.
