It doesn’t seem to be clear what episode this is, so I’m going to call it episode “x” for now.

Some interesting hands for sure:

It’s amazing to me that people are THAT tilt prone at these stakes. The whale gets absolutely raped, as expected, definitely watch the last hand for a good laugh. Not that we’ve all not tilted at some point or another, though, and perhaps this episode serves as a good reminder to cool off when tilting.

Oh – and LOL Tony G.

Enjoy.

PS: Love Ivey’s remark on the end – “Now I’ve just gotta figure out a way to get it home.”

Christmas means a lot of watching poker on youtube for me – may add comments below later. Enjoy:

I really can’t get over Juanda laying down top set and being THAT afraid of a flush from Harmon. I mean – she fired off a barely over half pot sized bet. Maybe super high stakes players are “just better” but I can’t imagine laying down top set that easily can be a big part of a winning strategy. If the board was more messy – maybe – but it really wasn’t.

Bah.

These are on youtube but it’s a pain in the ass to find all the parts and whatever. Hopefully this makes your viewing more pleasurable. I may post comments later, and I’ll continue to post episodes (as I watch them, though).

I am happy to announce that I did manage to cash in the Macau Poker Stars $100K guaranteed. Went out in fifth ATs < KQo (about 62 – 38).

I made a couple of amazing reads, and I’m basically happy with my performance, although obviously I wished that I could have went a bit further. I got my money in good every time, so I’m happy about that.

I did get some photos of me at the final table and afterwards, and I’ll post them up when I get them. Watch out world of poker, here I come!
