I just didn't find it necessary for him to go on about how he tips the Aria staff 'huge' and how they love him.
Even when he's talking about Mortensen, he finds a way mention how he made final table in '01 aswell and how they went back and forth about who"s a better tournament player.
What really got me though was he went on about saluting the players. The way he was describing it, I'm presuming he actually goes table to table to congratulate them/gets a microphone and congratulates them all at once. Fair enough if he bumped into some of them away from the tables obviously but just the notion of him interrupting proceedings to offer his congrats really made me cringe, I couldn't imagine any other pro doing it and would cringe equally if they did.

Carlos played very well and was super tough, JC's play was a bit weird and not very good in alot of spots IMO. Funnily enough both were down to sub 10bbs when i was playing with them and both made massive come backs by the end of the days, shows how easy it is to come back in that tournament given how much room to manover you have with the slow structure.Last edited by Guest; 16-07-13, 10:33.

Originally posted by zuutroy View PostWas thinking that about the final hand. Surely flatting a raise with 12-13bb oop with 78o is bad, even if it is a minraise? Also the flop float with the gutter.They will be like WTF how does he always have the top of his range, and they will be saying that when you show up with like nine's - Jimmy Fricke

I see now that you are probably referring to Mortenson's stack.

Money is huge from here on inVladimir grimming his backers. Sponsored by PKR as well. Original Staking Thread: Link This is where he comes out with the Degen LINK Latest can be fou
A few years before, Geshkenbein outs himself as a cheat when trying to hit the SnG Jackpot
okay well it's 1/9 for an average player to win a full ring game so (1/9)^6 even if you're 1/7 to win it's still so small it's almost impossible.
The Doc Sands one is still hanging waiting on a reply from him relating to his incident. 414 posts long ATM but the OP basically explains the jist of it
You might remember Doc from last year when him and the missus ended side by side when down to the last 3/4 tables

on the doc sands things, I don't think he did anything particularly shady personally? (I read the OP a week or so ago so not sure if there've any updates since then)Last edited by Jam-Fly; 23-07-13, 22:22.
