    if you think about it HU is super exposed to something like this as if you knew an opponent held an ace you have a really big edge, plus with so many hands you would get a chance to mark the deck relatively quickly

          Yep. His thought process is excellent, and even beginner players tuning up will pick up how to play the game just from listening to him.

              Watched a couple of Razz training videos in the past, but the commentary at this final table from Cal Anderson and Nick Schulman is better than any of them.

                Millionaire maker down to 32 from 7,000+, and fingers crossed for a class FT.

                Lichtenberger, Lindgren and Steve Gross all top 6 stacks. Olivier Busquet and Mike Sexton still in the field and probably some online wizards that I don't recognise.

                  I wa splaying downtown mostly and the waiting lists were 40 - 50 players + at times.


                  Also Hellmuth just shipped his 14th Bracelet!

                      Lindgren and Sexton bust from FT, but Olivier Busquets still there and bossing the table with the chip lead.

                      $330k+ gtd already and $1.27m up top

                        Lindgren was a little unlucky, lost 2 big flips. Busquets looks a winner at this stage, always seems to exactly where he is in every hand. Btw the coverage on all these FT are top class, very enjoyable.

                          I was wondering why they were so focussed on DFS and if there's any money in it. Then I realised knew the current guy in the booth and his brother from FTR back in the day, they both used to be HSNL regs.

                          I’ve made more money this year in Daily Fantasy than all but a few really good years in my poker career. It’s been more lucrative than I imagined, and I plan on putting even more time into next year. If you’re a poker player looking into getting something new, I recommend it.
                          Guess there is.

                            Natasha Barber lost HU in Event #20 tonight. She did get insanely lucky to bust Kevin MacPhee in 4th when it was AhKh of MacPhee against her AQo. Flop was J10x with 2 hearts and she rivered the offsuit King for the straight. Would be nice to see a woman get there!

                                speaking on skype with a friend, we came to the conclusion that the only reason why she does that is zamani told her he'd give her more money privately(no deals at wsop afaik) if she let him win the bracelet. otherwise its the best punt i've ever seen HU.

                                  That's a bit out there you might want to take the tin foil hat off.

                                      Andy Black, Sean Prendiville and Dermot Blain all have stacks in the Monster Stack. About 10 tables left.

                                        I suspect there is more like 100 tables left, closer to 150 maybe

                                                      Go on the Goat. Be great to see a final table (at least) in this after hitting the crossbar a couple of times in WSOP events.

After getting a count, Astedt calls and the cards are tabled. MacDonnell is in good shape with his 1010 against Astedt's Q10.

                                                                      Marc MacDonnell - 45,800

After getting a count, Astedt calls and the cards are tabled. MacDonnell is in good shape with his 1010 against Astedt's Q10.

                                                                        The flop is and 1094 and Astedt needs running hearts, running cards for a straight, or running queens to eliminate MacDonnell ..... MacDonnell doubles up.

                                                                        Marc MacDonnell - 45,800
                                                                        Niklas Astedt - 214,000

                                                                          Sun Kwak Spikes River to Survive

                                                                          Spencer Chen raises from early position to 25,000 and Sun Kwak three-bets to 90,000 from his immediate right. Action folds through to John O'Shea in the small blind who makes the call and Chen quickly folds.

                                                                          The dealer spreads a flop of 10 10 9 and O'Shea announces pot, putting Kwak all in. Kwak makes the call and sees the bad news.

                                                                          O'Shea: A A K 2
                                                                          Kwak: A 3 J J

                                                                          Kwak is way behind the aces of O'Shea and will need to catch running spades, straight cards, or one of the two remaining jacks to survive.

                                                                          The turn brings the K providing Kwak with a flush draw and the J falls on the river.

                                                                          Sun Kwak - 370,000

                                                                              I dunno ... I can see how he might have wanted to induce the original raiser to squeeze. He only "potted" flop as the opponent was really short probably less than half pot behind.

                                                                                  The board runs out 10 J 8 6 9 and O'Shea improves to a straight, eliminated Yekell in 15th place.

                                                                                  John O'Shea - 760,000

                                                                                    That's pretty much up there with the nut hands in o8. Better to have 3 players in pre, than just Kwak that's shortstacked. We don't know exactly how many chips Kwak has left, but 10109 is one of those boards that offers a good bluffing opportunity, so there's a good chance his Kwak thinks that, and he gets called pretty light with only a high hand to play for.

                                                                                    Mizrachi, Madsen, Pollock, and Boukai all omaha bracelet holders, and ODB has a mixed game bracelet so would love to see them all make the FT with O'Shea from a viewing perspective.

                                                                                                                  Playing 6 handed. Guy limps UTG for 100k, BTN makes it 650k with AJo playing 1.1m, BB shoves 2.8m with AQ, UTG tanks for ages and sticks it in with KK, AJ folds and KK wins.

                                                                                                                  Couple of laps late, guy opens 4x to 400k on the btn with QQ and gets 2 folds

                                                                                                                  Then a 3x on the button and shows the 62o when the blinds fold.

                                                                                                                  Then guy opens to 375k with A6o (still playing 50/100k) and next guy shoves 900k with KJ. The A6o playing 4.6m and getting 2.5/1 mucks it.

                                                                                                                  Poker is alive and well and full of value!
