Players are great but the all-in structure is really getting old. There is no skill involved, its a real shame. :club:

Yeah this is actually a pretty sweet table. The two biggest luckboxes versus the Mouth. Add in the presence of Forrest and Lindgren with DN also there is soo cool.EDIT: Yes Forrest made a bad call with 44 but man is Raymer such a luckbox floping trips when he is huge dog with K2 vs 44.

It isn't done airing yet, so far Matusow out first. Forrest just doubled up off the luckbox Raymer. Still 5 left.EDIT: Woot DN just doubled up against Raymer with 73 suited vs A5.

Damn, I really loved this field and great to see Daniel win but I feel that you need more luck than skill to win these things. Think about it: If you make a standard raise in the very beginning of the tournament, you have commited almost 1/4 of your stack. (60k, ya start with 250k) I mean even online stts are close to this bad. Great win for Daniel though. :club:

Wrong. There is plenty of skill involved. It's a different kind of skill than we're used to though. An example of no skill involved would be if everyone got dealt a hand, and they all showed them down and the best hand at showdown won every pot. In this case, they have to know when to go all-in and when not to. They have to know how to move their chips. Sometimes they'll get unlucky, but I guarantee you there IS skill involved.

You guys call Raymer a "luckbox" for flopping trips against Forrest's 44, yet don't say a word about DN hitting his 3 against Raymer's A5?I like DN and I understand that there is a great deal of luck in this structure, I just wouldn't go putting Raymer down for hitting a card once in a while. He got sucked out on plenty too.And yeah... DN was acting pretty goofy. It was entertaining for sure, but... GOOFY.I'm a HUGE Ted Forrest fan, but I was very dissappointed in his play in this episode. I think he'll adjust for the next round.
