Deepkoncntrtion 0 Posted July 5, 2006 Share Posted July 5, 2006 I can't believe this final table structure. Daniel is going to have to hit some hands because there isn't much time to outplay everyone.We have some hope...Salzer put alot of $$$ in the pot holding just trips on a paired, 3 flush board....DN just has to have 1 or 2 hands hold up...

rogerwilco 0 Posted July 5, 2006 Share Posted July 5, 2006 Jack Zwerner Pulls Down a Big PotJack Zwerner has just raked a large pot off of Jeff Madsen. Zwerner had been betting the whole way and Madsen calling. The board showed A 3 2 7 9 and two of Zwerner's hole card were nines for a set. Madsen tossed out an ace and a duece and announce low, but had misread his hand and Zwerner scooped the entire pot, worth over $100,000.Wow, imagine that happening to you considering what is at stake...

blakheart 3 Posted July 5, 2006 Share Posted July 5, 2006 They have already decided to roll the binds back on the Horse final table, so it is not completely unheard of to adjust the blinds in WSOP play. I know, I know, it is differnet because the HORSE tourney isn't play NL until the final table, but ther is almost a precedent for it. As someone mentioned earler, the Big stacks would be opposed to any reduction in the Blinds, and I think it would be unfair to all to do so. I think they somehow just goofed this structure up somewhere along the way. Link to post Share on other sites
