Matt Perry's BLOG:
Ivey, Ivey, Ivey! Blom, Blom, Blom!
Sunday, 26 September 2010
Viktor Blom is just a sick, sick individual. There is no other way to say it. At this juncture it doesn’t even matter if he is Isildur1 or not – he obviously is but he’s still keeping schtum about it – because having watched him tear through the field at the £10,350 WSOPE Main Event I am fully prepared to believe that I am watching one of the best No Limit Hold ‘em players in the world. And he’s 19 years old!
Isildur1 is famed for his overbets, which he will make for value, as a bluff or for razor-thin value with middle pair. I’ve seen five overbets from Blom over the past two days he has been playing and they resulted in three folds and two calls. Two of the three times he got folds; he showed a pure bluff (eight high and one pair on a A-K-9-T board); both times he was called he had the best hand. How you can hand-read so well is beyond me.
Even if he isn’t Isildur1, which he is, then the story of Blom90 – who he definitely is – is amazing as well. He was playing $530 STTs on PartyPoker in 2005 at the age of 15; he ran up a $2,000 deposit to $1,500,000 in five weeks playing heads-up cash before taking out half a million and losing the rest before doing it again. He has a huge stack at the moment and I hope he makes the final table because THAT will be fine TV.
Now, Phil Ivey. Everyone knows I’m an Ivey nuthugger and that’s because I play poker. He is the best, no doubt about it. As I write he has taken the chip lead after knocking out Nick Schulman and Matt Stout in consecutive hands as well as dropping us down to seven tables. I am praying for an Ivey v. Blom heads-up showdown for the bracelet because that would probably be the best thing I’ve ever seen. I could die happy then.
Anyway, no time for blogging – there’s WSOPE reporting to be done.

I presume the whole tournament will be televised later in the year as previous years WSOPE have been.

Anyone have any experience with the insurance company affiliated with Carphone Warehouse (Think it's called Lifeline or something similar)? Have dropped in my laptop and filled in a claim form and was just wondering how long should it be until I get word back? Should I expect a repair or replacement? Hoping for a repair tbf as I've a few things on it that I haven't backed up.

Normally you'd just delete the off-topic stuff, throw a warning on thread and let the discussion continue. If that doesn't work you might start infracting or banning people that take if off-topic, and if the thread descends to such an extent that nobody is on-topic you might lock it then.
Everyone has their own way of doing things though so it's hard to give a concrete answer.

Local pub is seriously student friendly here, buy one get one free meals with student card, student prices for pints on most weeknights too.
We stumbled across this morning to get a breakfast and got a full Scottish Breakfast for £2 75% off! Was flying through the yoke before I realised what I was eating, what I thought was a very peppery black pudding was in fact Haggis. It was pretty ok to be honest with you, but after reading about it there, I think I will be steering clear of it for quite a while!
Also, for any vegetarians among you, would you be happy enough to eat it? The pub thinks its a veggie friendly food...

I know Attol and let her know it wasn't the best move she ever made.
I agree, she way over-reacted.

Off work sick since Thursday so read a lot on boards. Some of the admins reasoning and resolution process stuff is just bizarre.
Also there was a couple of laugh out loud posts in economics, makes me wonder how these people tie their own shoelaces.
One guy started a thread looking for ideas on how to raise €3B in the budget. And his own idea was
Originally posted by drunkmonkeyThere are 6.5 million newspapers sold around the country per week. If we increase the price of every newspaper by 1euro per copy that will generate extra revenue of €338,000,000 per year.
I don't have the figure for Magazines but we should include them as well.

Ah, vegetarian haggis made no sense to me whatsoever, I thought they'd left a typo on the menu or something.

Think I'll have to go looking for my old copy of Grim Fandango. It's been too long."In the world, there are many kings but there is only one God. I am God, I am El Tren" :{)
