Official 2006 Wsop Main Event Thread


Recommended Posts

Someone needs to explain what LIVE coverage means to CP? How can you not have an update for 23 minutes when only two tables are going? What a joke!
because unlike the allin poker you fishies see on TV. A lot of poker is small pots of blinds and antes, there really no point in posting it. Youd be just as pissed if the had 10 updates in 23 minutes that all read "xxxxxx raises and takes down the pot"
Tue Aug 08 22:33:00 PDT 2006Chop ChopWith no raises, Michael Binger and Dan Nassif see a flop of 754. Both players check. The turn brings the 7. Binger fires out $200,000 and Nassif just calls. The river brings the 7 and Binger checks to Nassif who bets out $500,000. Binger calls and shows Q-7 for 7-7-7-5-5. Nassif, however, also shows a seven with K-7 in his hand. The players chop the pot. Rigged

It's all true. :icon_cry:Tue Aug 08 22:55:00 PDT 2006Leif Force Eliminated in 11th Place ($1,154,527)Friberg, Force, Kim and Gold all see a flop of Q85 and everyone checks to Force who goes all-in for $320,000. Friberg calls and shows Q10. Force turns over A7 for the nut flush draw and an overcard. The turn is the 8 and river the K and Friberg is eliminated in 11th place. The remaining 10 players will be seated at the final table and will play until one more player is eliminated. One more to go.

PRetty sure that the CP updates last year were of every hand. Or was this only at the final table?

Cunningham is the man. He is going to win. That fish Gold is going to bluff all his chips off to Allen.
its expected, 1 big name pro and a bunch of random/small time pro's, its bound to happen. is it just me or is Allen been playing awesome the last few years?

Take a look at this photo:gold_jamie.jpgI'm a little confused about the denominations of the chips currently in play. My guess is the black/gold are 5K, the orange/yellow are 10K, and the orange/grey are 25K. Anybody know for sure? What happened to the beige colored 25K chips from last year's main event?Also, two of the denominations look WAY too much alike, at least in the photos. It seems like it would be very easy to eye somebody's stack incorrectly, and even easier to hide the bigger chips if one so desired.It looks like they will be coloring out the 5K chips at the end of the current level, so I hope I'm wrong and the orange/yellow chips are actually the 5Ks, so as alleviate any possible confusion.Finally, there's this comment from the CardPlayer coverage:A First For The WSOPIn the next level WSOP tournament directors will be introducing a new chip to the Main Event. The $100,000 chip will be put into play. The chip has been described by tournament directors as "mint green with chocolate."Yum.
I'm not sure if this has already been answered or not, but here are the values:The lighter colored orangish chips are $5k, the "Bumblebees" (black and yellow) are $10k, the red and yellow chips are $25k, and the green and chocolate chips are $100k.

To chop or not, that is the questionSuppose the chip stacks were a bit more even and Gold and Cunningham didn't have 50% of what's in play. A 9 way chop would come to $4.2 million each, or a hundred grand better than third for eveybody. A final 4 chop would be $6.4 for each, or 300 grand better than second. Then, play for the bracelet and the "official" title. What would you do?

Jade, I keep hearing it's tomorrow starting at noon. I'm heading to the Rio later today and if I hear anything different, I'll let you know here. No new threads in general.
