bsabres81 0 Posted July 10, 2005 Share Posted July 10, 2005 I took a prop bet on Bodog, Michael Mizrachi -120 against Tuan Le. I know that Mizrachi survived Day 1, though not with the chips he would like. But I can't find any mention of Tuan Le on Cardplayer, or anywhere else I've looked. If anyone knows, please respond.

SNoh84 0 Posted July 10, 2005 Share Posted July 10, 2005 He's probably playing day 3. Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Posted July 10, 2005 Share Posted July 10, 2005 Maybe he made his $10,000,000 playing poker and retired for life. Link to post Share on other sites
greatwhite 0 Posted July 10, 2005 Share Posted July 10, 2005 I think he is a great poker player, but I think he is playing for the wrong reason. I don't think he has the heart for the game like Phil Ivey, Dan, and people like that who strive to be the best. I can't cheer for someone who says they want to retire when they make a certain amount of money. Link to post Share on other sites
NicksDad1970 0 Posted July 10, 2005 Share Posted July 10, 2005 I know I saw his name in one of the chip counts on either day 1 or day 2. I would go to www.pokerwire.com and paste it here but there's 2000 names. So people probably wouldn't like that. Link to post Share on other sites

greatwhite 0 Posted July 10, 2005 Share Posted July 10, 2005 Young Asian guys don't have the heart for anything, all they want to do is hustle, make money, and upgrade thier car.This this a very bad stereotype. Juanda has as much heart as anyone to win in my view. Watch yourself, because a large percent of the big name poker players are Asian and stereotyping will get you in a lot of trouble.

If anyone knows, please respond.I searched the remaining players, Tuan Le is not among them, but the Grinder is. I too remember seeing Tuan on the chip count list on either day 1 or day 2, so congrats on the win.-Shawn K. Link to post Share on other sites

Acesgotcracked 0 Posted July 10, 2005 Share Posted July 10, 2005 Caro negatively(and correctly for his purposes)stereotypes Asians in one of his books as either very poor luck based players(100% true, it comes from the superstition of Asian culture), or exceptionally skilled analytical players. Todd Brunson has stated before that the only reason he plays poker is for money, he doesen't give a rats behind about braclets or any of that crap that the hollywood playres say they want, just money. There is absolutely nothing wrong with that, if I couldn't win money playing poker I would never have started up with it about 5 years ago, be a waste of time. If Tuan Lee plays for money, I for one think he has his priorities in order. Link to post Share on other sites

greatwhite 0 Posted July 11, 2005 Share Posted July 11, 2005 He wants money yes, but he said he would stop playing once he's made $10 million. I think that is a sign of lack of heart for the game. Don't you? Link to post Share on other sites
