GB80 Posted July 8, 2007 Share Posted July 8, 2007 Re: WSOP Main Event I'm only at 22,600. I played really poorly in the 1st level, and after I got bluffed off a pot with AK I tilted a bit. I was down to 8,000, and ended up getting myself all in with pocket 10's against pocket aces. A couple of 10's on the flop was nice to see! After that I started playing better, and was up to 26,000 half an hour before the dinner break when my table was broken up. A few hands in and I got AK again, and after I missed the flop the guy raised 10,000 into a 3,000 pot. I didn't know anything about him at the time but I'm pretty sure he had nothing, though it wasn't worth the risk. 10 minutes later after seeing the way he was playing I'd have gone all in, he was a maniac. Then just before the dinner break I get AK again and get called. Flop brings an ace and I raise 3/4 the pot, and the guy is calling me before I've even had chance to throw the chips in. Turn comes and the guy ends up convincing me he has two pair. He goes all in, and after alot of thinking I fold. He had AJ (no J on board), so I'm bluffed off AK for a third time! That put me down to 13,000, and then after I'm moved table a while after lunch more bad play by me (involving AK again) I go as low as 6,000. Before I get moved yet again, I get pocket Jacks after someone had already raised. Big stack then pushes all in (other player got out the way) and he had Aces. No help flop or turn and as I'm about to get up from my seat the river is a Jack. The last level was at a new table, which was alot of fun. I didn't get any major hands, but I played pretty well to claw my way back to above my starting stack. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

morlspin Posted July 8, 2007 Share Posted July 8, 2007 Re: WSOP Main Event Phil Ivey Doubles Up That's one of the scariest phrases in the poker universe, even this early on. Ivey and three other players saw a flop and after the big blind checked Ivey bet 500. One player folded, one player called, and then the big blind check-raised to 1,500. Ivey then popped it up to 4,500, the player stuck in the middle got out of the way, and the big blind called Phil's bet. The hit on the turn and the big blind check-called Ivey's 8,000 bet. And he also chose to call when the fell on the river and Ivey moved in for his last 10,875. Phil then turned over pocket Queens for the flopped full house and doubled his stack to 54,000.

morlspin Posted July 9, 2007 Share Posted July 9, 2007 Re: WSOP Main Event Mike Matusow Has Been Eliminated Down to his last 10,000, Mike "The Mouth" Matusow moved all in from the small blind after the player in the cutoff raised to 1,200. The other player called and flipped over pocket jacks, which had Matusow's pocket threes crushed. Despite a desperate cry of "Put a three out there!" from someone in the crowd, the board ran out and Matusow's Main Event was at an end.

The other player called and Bloch made a set on the flop. Both players checked, and on the turn came a card that Bloch will probably see in his nightmares, the .

Her opponent flipped over Q-J for two pair. She still had outs with an open-ended straight draw. Unfortunately, she missed her draw and headed to the rail.

morlspin Posted July 9, 2007 Share Posted July 9, 2007 Re: WSOP Main Event Mr. Peanut vs. Mike "The Mouth" Matusow: Round 1 Mike "The Mouth" Matusow was playing tight poker for most of the afternoon. That is, until Mr. Peanut walked by the Bluff feature table where Mike is seated. Mike motioned to Mr. Peanut to approach the table. Upon approach, Mike jumped out of his seat and tried to wrestle Mr. Peanut to the ground. Mr. Peanut survived the sneak attack, and barely got away from Mike's clutches. After moving to the rail, Mr. Peanut began making gestures around his stomach, motioning that he won the tiff thanks to Mike's weight. Winner of Round 1: Mr. Peanut We'll keep you updated as the fight continues. "The Mouth" vs. Mr. Peanut: Round 2 After Mr. Peanut left Mike "The Mouth" Matusow's table area, the entire table began making jokes at Mike over the fight. "What's the matter, Mike? Don't like the nuts?" "He started it with me," Mike responded. "Everyone here saw it. He actually punched me when I tried to grab him." After the tournament staff moved T.J. Cloutier to Mike's table, Mike said, "TJ! You missed it! I just tackled Mr. Peanut! I don't know how I couldn't take him down..."

McG Posted July 9, 2007 Share Posted July 9, 2007 Re: WSOP Main Event OK then, my fairly predictable 3 to make the final table are - Phil Ivey, Carlos Mortensen, Andy Black. I expect GaF top advise that they have all been knocked out already :( So, 2 out of 3 of my picks didn't make it past day 1 - any news on smiley Carlos? And is anybody else going to make a rash guess at the winner? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GaF Posted July 9, 2007 Author Share Posted July 9, 2007 Re: WSOP Main Event 8 minutes ago Early and Unofficial Numbers The early (and unofficial) number of entrants today is 1,772, but registration will be open for another half hour. That sets the tentative total number of players at 6,347 or so -- more than in 2005, but less than in 2006. Given the conditions of the post-UIGEA poker world, that's a pretty impressive number.
