Dr_Shakes 0 Posted July 16, 2009 Share Posted July 16, 2009 I wonder how often Koop will think about that hand in the next year or so?and would Akenhead just go ahead and bust so I can go to sleep.... I got work tomorrow! Link to post Share on other sites
SwolyswoND 1 Posted July 16, 2009 Share Posted July 16, 2009 Since he's a part owner he'd be paying himself along with some of Gordon and Lederer's money, so sure, why the hell not. Link to post Share on other sites

CaneBrain 95 Posted July 16, 2009 Share Posted July 16, 2009 I dont see why you even get involved here with 53 from early position. You are so close to the November Nine which is much bigger than just the 1.26 million (which is pretty big in and of itself). Why get involved with 53?But yes, the board pairing SHOULD have saved him a ton of chips. If the turn is a brick, I can understand going busto a little better but with the board pairing it is just horrible. Link to post Share on other sites

TwstdWrstr 10 Posted July 16, 2009 Share Posted July 16, 2009 So here's a question:Do you think the remaining players would prefer to bust Ivey now to get him out of there, or given the unique format of the "November Nine" time frame and its promotional opportunities, is it in their overall best interest to keep him afloat for the final nine?

Has to be good for widening poker's appeal. Link to post Share on other sites

Of course, it's Ivey, so his flush would've been ruled the better hand. Link to post Share on other sites

coug2828 8 Posted July 16, 2009 Share Posted July 16, 2009 whoever busts him(should it happen) would probably be very popular with the remaining players but hated by the rail birds Link to post Share on other sites

Moneymaker version 2.0.strongly agree with both thoughts here.Shulman making the final table is also good because I guess CardPlayer is in a feud with Harrah's and every little bit of drama helps. And he is a very well-known player so you have two legit pros. Link to post Share on other sites
