View Full Version : Quick WSOP STT update

Well, the 2+2 STTers are making a pretty good showing here in Vegas this weekend.

Ben Foster and John Hurst both cashed in the first event (NLHE). Rojosox and Grekehaus both cashed in the big Palms night event (NLHE), with Rojosox walking away with the biggest 2+2 payday of the weekend so far. I cashed in the Pot Limit event last night to make a total of 3, 2+2 STTer WSOP cashes in the first 2 days. I haven't heard from Gigabet... so maybe it's even better than that.

I'm not playing in the limit event today, but John Hurst and Ben Foster are... so I'll go sweat them and hope for yet another forum cash today.

Thank you all for the PMs and well-wishes. I'll probably only have time for another 2 events or so... but this weekend has been so much fun that it is already a tremendously successful WSOP for me. I look forward to Yugo's trip report.

He is too modest to state that Marcel Lusk was to his right with 2.5 gigabillion chips..... Great playing Irie, it was a hoot to watch you in "The Show".

Slacker - Who was the 2nd oldest and most definitely the tallest 2+2er in Vegas this weekend. Am I drunk yet?

You can go to www.worldseriesofpoker.com (http://www.worldseriesofpoker.com) and check the photo gallery.

If you select Saturday, June 4th main event pot limit holdem you can find all of us.

I'm in gallery E100 (I'm the one with the Heineken). I think Daliman is in gallery 11 (he's mucking his cards cuz he knows he's pwned). I'll find Zen and Hurst later if I can.

Haha, the first one with a Heineken in it is some old dude with a big mustache. I was just like, "That's Irieguy? What the crap..."

Is that DCS_0032? /images/graemlins/grin.gif Nice tashe man. /images/graemlins/grin.gif

I was laughing my head off until I noticed that you must be 0033. Oh well if you just put on a few pounds and grow some nice facial hair on your top lip then you could look like a 1970's German porn star too.

This brings up an important question. Normally, sunglasses+poker=donk. Apparently, this equation does not apply at the WSOP....or does it?

Should the style of sunglasses be factored in? Half-tinted is ok, wraparound Moneymaker's are unacceptible?

Dali is 3852, red baseball cap?

irie: older heavy set guy or young guy w/pink chips on top of his black chips, and looking like he's asleep?

I am blown away by the number of gold rings in these pictures. No wonder people think poker players are skeevy.

What kind of donk wears 5 gold rings on each hand?

Good point. Meanwhile, Irie busts out the cufflinks for this event. I need to upgrade my wardrobe before WSOP 2006.

To be honest, I am surprised Irie and Dali aren't 300lb'ers.

After Raymer and Moneymaker, I just assume everyone that plays online is doughy.

McPherzen, he can usually be found in threads discussing the merits of PokerProphecy.

JohnnyBeef did spend $200 on a pair of jeans, though. But I still don't think they would be up to your standards.

And like $230 for a shirt, right?

All this while he was completely obliterating his roll by playing limits waaaaaaay too high for it.

Not that it matters...the beef will be back up and runnin' sh!t in no time.
