WSOP Main Event Picks and Fantasy Pool

[Data]

Andy Beal beat Lederer.

That was the first time they played. Later on Lederer won more than $9 million from Beal.

regarding Andy Beal vs the "Corporation" Ivey had to bail everyone out. Andy Beal beat Lederer. And made his sister look like a retard, also he crushed Harmon. The Corporation was stuck 10 Million at 1 point.

Doyle Brunson should do everybody a favor and retire.

Um... Why the fuck do you care if Doyle still plays poker?

 

[Railbird]

I wish ESPN would stop sucking his **** it gets very monotinous. He is not the Angelic grand pa he is made out to be.

I didn't have you pegged for smoking the crack pipe on Sunday's Rail. Might be time to get some help.

 

[royboy_3831]

Lederer spanked Beal so hard that at one point Beal refused to play him, that was one of the stipulations of the deal.

 

[royboy_3831]

World's best, Phil Ivey, is man down.

 

[GreenDoberman]

Shannon Elizabeth
Mike the Mouth
Ivey
Bloch
Men the Master

Did anyone notice that Montell Williams has 90,000 chips after day 1. He is actually one of the better celebrity players. He has played in numerous live tournaments and loves the game

 

[PO69]

My picks are not looking that great, but maybe I will still one of my remaining 4 players at the final 30 or so.

 

[GreenDoberman]

Lots of people lost a few spots with Raymer, Ivey, and Matusow going down.

PO, go back a page and someone posted info on Montell.

Robert Mizrachi
Juan carlos Mortenson
Gavin Griffin
NAM Le


Well my picks look like shit!! These are my ONLY players that might be left. Gavin Griffin is looking good at the moment. I havent heard about a few of the others.



Just a reminder, REMEMBER that in this tournament they started with $20,000 CHIPS instead of $10,000 last year

 

[GreenDoberman]

They also doubled the blinds, creating the illusion of more starting chips and more play when, in fact, you started last year with 200x BB and this year you start with.....200X BB.

 

[PO69]

By the way, I have played in many $1000 buyin and $5000 buyin tournaments where you received $10,000 in chips to start. It sure is a fun tournament when you start off with that amount of chips. Of course most of those events, the blinds changed every 45 minutes I believe so the tournaments went a bit faster.

 

[PO69]

One of my biggest wins was a $1000 buyin tournament where we started with 10,000 chips. Well I arrived late by about 45 minutes on purpose. I was playing live action and was up around $1400. But I thought that I would still have around 9500 chips. Well to my dismay, I only had 8700 chips after that 45 minutes. I believe that the blinds started at 50/100. The problem was that there were 3 players not at the table for 20 and one guy NEVER showed up for the tournament after paying or qualifying to play. I wasnt counting on more than 1 person to not be at the table. But I won that tournament anyway. There were 435 players and it paid $134,000 for first. So every tournament since then I arrive late, but usually only 25 minutes late or so.


I mention this story, in case you are wondering why some of the pros arrive 1-2 hours late to the main event. They want to conserve their strength and not be tired early into the day

 

[GreenDoberman]

Gavin playing his usual aggressive style, already up over 100k.

In a "shock", Clonie Gowen has been eliminated.

 

[PO69]

Clonie is a babe when it comes to poker!


Why are they not showing Robert Mizrachi's updated chipstack on most sites?? He is one of the hottest players in the world!

 

[GreenDoberman]

Robert played yesterday.

 

[TOK]

[GreenDoberman]

Michael gone. Robert still alive.
