Some good ICM poker happening on the bubble.
Its Ivey, Devilfish, Jesus and Juanda.
Its pretty interesting to watch them play our game.
its a 60/28/12 payout structure.
Ferguson just open pushed AQo with a short stack and a little over 10 BB ( i think, its hard to tell sometimes)

Yes that was funner to watch than an edited for TV game.

FSN tried to make it better for a poker player to watch by showing pot size and everyones holdings. Chip stacks would have been nice.

Seems like the chance of winning percentages was messed up on some hands. Some hands were at 50/50 that did not seem equal. I forget what other cards had been seen though.

The percentages look off because they also take into account the cards that have already been mucked. They tracked them with some microchip in the cards.

I thought Ivey, John, and Jesus all played the push fold game very well...Devilfish seemed like he didnt know what he was doing calling raises with 54 and stuff like that on the bubble. I was also happy to see jesus make good calls with Ax when it was right and good folds with crap like 33. I also wanted to note how Howard talked about how no one would want to be 4th when Jesus got crippled...I was hoping I would see Ivey totally pwn the bubble from that spot but John screwed it up for him by pushing with his 55...Oh well, I thought it was a very good program...something I havent thought about poker in a while.

I know many of the overseas poker clubs use those plates for poker. They're usually worth a very high dollar amount. What I found strange was the chips themselves. They semed to be metal disks instead of clay and they were freakin huge,

Good show, but they would do well to let us hear more of the table talk, rather than some of the inane commentator chatter. I like Howard's analysis, but hearing some of the chat at the table would have been interesting.
