Jdr999 0 Posted May 1, 2006 Share Posted May 1, 2006 my guess is daniel is offering the short-stacks something like a 10k buy-in if they step down. I doubt they're editing out the elimination hands because we've seen some, and they would edit out other stuff if it was delayed 20 minsWhy would he do this? Make no sense.

digitalmonkey 929 Posted May 1, 2006 Share Posted May 1, 2006 They're only showing the internet 1/2 the hands .... 2nd studio they film the others in / readjust the chip stacks , then start over ... notice EVERYONE leaves during the breaks ? Audience , dealers , camera guys ? ? ?Shhhh...you're going to ruin the surprise for the upcoming DVD release of this final table. Link to post Share on other sites

DanielSon 0 Posted May 1, 2006 Share Posted May 1, 2006 Here is the speech to the short stacks...Hey, it seems you're a little short stacked and I have an offer to make you...You are too good to be my protege, I need someone I can build into a better player....How about you step down and I'll just give you a 10K buy in into an event of your choice...lol Link to post Share on other sites

DrawingDeadInDM 0 Posted May 1, 2006 Share Posted May 1, 2006 Amazing.Daniel questioned the integrity of that team-play event in England, but, randomly pulling players and their stacks--not even blinding them off--is a sure fire way to show that this thing is being done on the up and up."Well, we had 10 players start with 100k, and now we're heads up..Player A has a slight chip lead, 443k to 329k."

It just seems to be the final result of most promotions from this site, that they sound really cool, but along the way there seem to be a lot of snags and problems. Link to post Share on other sites
XX44466XX 0 Posted May 1, 2006 Share Posted May 1, 2006 Rumor has it Chuck Norris was seen in Toronto last night!The man who reported the sighting is in critical condition due to massive head injury sustained as the result of multiple roundhouse kicks. Link to post Share on other sites
golfingdaddy 0 Posted May 1, 2006 Share Posted May 1, 2006 I have to say that with Daniel's comments in his blog about the World Cup format tournament being "rigged", I would think his integrity would not allow this type of BS to continue. The whole episode has a "shady" under tone, from the 3 hour delay for starting to the invasion of the body snatchers behind the curtains. And who is doing the "real' TV commentary....surely noone is going to re-broadcast Ali's less than PC immitations and remarks. Link to post Share on other sites

psujohn 0 Posted May 1, 2006 Share Posted May 1, 2006 I can't think of a single reason to allow "removing" players from the table that wouldn't make this something other than a poker tournament. It's some sort of game that involves poker but clearly not any kind of legit tourney. Link to post Share on other sites
