lordofelt 0 Posted January 26, 2007 Share Posted January 26, 2007 such a crap shoot. A deal makes a lot of sense here. Think DN will cave on his policy since it's a flipament and he's got another place to be?Nope. Especially since the WPT has a "no-deals" policy, very little chance in this happening.

Sens-Eh 0 Posted January 26, 2007 Share Posted January 26, 2007 They've now finally all swapped chips so many times, that the FT chip leader is now the Short Stack and their all still there......... Link to post Share on other sites
SCYUKON 0 Posted January 26, 2007 Share Posted January 26, 2007 This is now bingo folks. With the cost of an orbit at 200k, even someone with 1.6M has a relative M of around 5. No wonder all we see is pushes. More like a game of chicken at this stage. Can't believe no one has busted yet.... Link to post Share on other sites

SCYUKON 0 Posted January 26, 2007 Share Posted January 26, 2007 Actually the WPT site says blinds 25,000/50,000 with 5,000 ante, so not so bad. Thought cardplayer said 40,000/80,000 with 10,000 antes....Still 105 k per orbit - not much play left. Link to post Share on other sites
jgp 0 Posted January 26, 2007 Share Posted January 26, 2007 This is just a silly way to decide a championship. This is akin to the top 6 players in a golf tournament having a putting contest from 30 feet to see who wins. Link to post Share on other sites

lucky_charmz 0 Posted January 26, 2007 Share Posted January 26, 2007 I know another tournament that has a structure like this. It's called the Red Hot Poker Tour and it's free. The WPT should be embarassed about this bingo poker. I'm suprised that a guy like Mike Sexton doesn't say something about it. Link to post Share on other sites

We are confirming if this is longest it has ever taken to eliminate one player at a WPT final table. Link to post Share on other sites
xmykro 0 Posted January 26, 2007 Author Share Posted January 26, 2007 This is ridiculous. How can they even call this poker? This is an all-in luck fest.WPT needs to change their FT structure. Link to post Share on other sites
