I don't really have a problem with him except for the excessive time he takes.  The talking is pretty entertaining to be honest.

I can't understand half of what he says because of the accent and the speed he's talking.  All I know is it's annoying as ####.

If you want to be on tv just make an ### of yourself during the WSOP.  The cameras will be all over you.

Watching the final table live on the deuce. Now that Kassouf is gone, who used to take 8 minutes to play a hand, the average decision time for the players at the final table is about :20 seconds. Hands are playing faster live than they were when they were edited down for TV. They must have hated that guy.




 




 

Kassouf - Supreme #### supreme.

Watching the final head's up, Antonio Esfandiari throwing out some weird backwards math. Kind of odd.

Watching too, just love this.

Did it mention I busted Hellmuth, lol.

This final table has been super fun. 

The AA vs KK hand with Will and Griffin was amazing to watch in person. Definitely the most exciting hand I've ever seen in person. My buddy Mike stayed at my house for the summer and got 15th so I got some tv time when he busted AJcc to Gordon'a AK. Would have been super awesome for one of my friends to make the ft and railing this right now.

When you've got a neck tattoo, your job options are pretty much bartender or young aggressive poker player, right? 

If you're fat, bouncer.

Oh man, my heart goes out to Vayo. What a rough run of Cards

Amen.  He chilled through that crap as well as anyone ever has.

 

[BigSteelThrill]

Vayo's cards.

Sounds like a good guy.

According to ESPN, Nguyen plans to donate 10 percent of his winnings to help fight poverty and homelessness in his native Vietnam.

“[Average] Vietnamese family makes only $200 a month,” he said. “They are very poor and hungry. Some families don’t even have blankets, but I will make sure that they are taken care of. Whether I finish first or last, I plan to go to Vietnam to donate money to the poor.”

He also promised to donate 2.5 percent of his winnings to the Wounded Warrior Project, which helps out injured U.S. service members. Nguyen’s older brother, Duc, arrived in the United States in 1972, became a citizen and served in the Marines for 23 years before retiring in 2015 with a rank of major, earning multiple Purple Hearts for injuries suffered in Iraq and Afghanistan.

“I owe my brother a lot,” Qui told ESPN. “I’m not here in the U.S. without him. To honor him for serving [our] country, I’m going to donate to the Wounded Warrior Project and the Marines’ Toys for Tots, as well.”

I was wondering why he was wearing a Marines.com patch

The 365 is to get @Otis to finally go.

888 and tag team were there last year.  

I'm in for om8 event 4 and colossus event 5

 

[The Ref]

The $565 PLO on 6/9 seems interesting.

we have a bunch of defend from Palm Beach that go out every year.  I'm going to see when they will be out and try and make a plan.

I play at a lot of 365 WSOPC events, solid, straight ahead play with average cards will get you to day two every time. 

I can come in on 6/6 and hit the 1500 HORSE then the 365 GIANT.   

But what I really like is come in the 6/20 and hit 1500 Stud8, 3K HORSE, 1500O8.   That is my wheelhouse there but that is a lot of bankroll.

That is not bad either

I will probably do the HORSE on the 7th also.  Want to do the Giant that weekend too, but wife has camping trip set for Jul8th when Day 2 starts of Giant.

The Giant is the nightly $365 rolled up into another massive event. I cashed in 2 of 3 of those 365 last year.

That's why I liked that first week a little better.  Colossus is a blast.  I would kill to do Event 9.

That's a big nut to even try to sat into.   It hurts not cashing in a 1.5K event.  Can't imagine the pain/joy of a 10k event.   Highest I played so far is 2.5k.

 

[IC FBGCav]

If I go on the 6th and do well, I can always come back two weeks later..............mmmm sounds like a plan.   Talking myself into being a total degen here.

That's my plan     Was able to pull it off in 2015.

They have a circuit event at the RIO in February, I made my room reservations but have not pulled the trigger on the airline ticket yet.  I can hit a HORSE and a monster stack tourny but it is a long way to go for 2 tournys but there are very few circuit HORSE tournys.

Might go to Tulsa in March.   I have property there

Aaah, the ####hole on the toll road. Worst part of driving east from Albq was having to drop actual cash to drive from OKC to Tulsa. It's like payin a ho to get off you.

and I never have that cash. Made sure I stayed off the toll road last month on a trip out there.

Did the Senior's NLHE always have a re-entry? I don't remember that last year.

Why wouldn't you just turn your chair around until he makes his move? No one does that. With that clown, that is what I would do.

Cuz you might pass gas which could be a tell

If Benger did that on purpose, then it was a brilliant piece of acting. Because he seriously looked like he was going to break down and cry. Kaussouf would not have called if Benger hadn't flipped out.

I'll admit that one time in a much lower stakes tournament I feigned frustration (and made a faux frustration shove) when I hit a set of 2s on a flop.  It worked.

Was close to winning a seat to the ME last week.  Took 7th / 170.  Top prize was a ME seat.

 

[QuizGuy66]

a littled bummed that there isn't really an event right-sized for my budget ahead of my birthday which is when I would wanna go out there (bday is end of June).  The $365 event would be desirable if the Day 2 was on the first - can't stay a whole week for that.  Would consider heading out a week after my bday for thar but not ideal - I tend to roll my bday and 4th of July into one shot.

If I do headout I'll let folks know.

2nd largest field ever for 2018...

This is very impressive when you consider there are probably less satellites and what not to get there .
