Affleck Wins!

[Bill Murphy]

And of course it's not a televised tourney. Still another big boost for poker

Wins what?

[sdplayerb]

he was at the final table of the commerce 10K today.
I heard something earlier he won, but thought it was a joke.
is that for real?

[Tyler Durden]

Really? He was in 8th place when final table play began. He had T45,200 and the leader, Stan Goldstein had T235,500.

Amir Vahedi and John Esposito (whom I played with in the Big One) also made the final table, in 5th and 3rd chip position respectively.

Affleck doesn't surprise me at all, but I am still mystified at how Yaser Al-Keliddar finished in the money at the WSOP. /images/graemlins/confused.gif

No joke (http://www.pokerpages.com/tournament/result9613.htm)

Check out the name under his picture...that's Ben AffLICK. Not Ben AffLECK. Duh.

[whiskeytown]

my impression is that he was a cool guy with the worst [censored] girlfriend in the world...(well, not when he was with Gweneth, but this J-Lo chick) -

I mean....Mason is an incredible poker player, but if he got say, breast implants /images/graemlins/grin.gif /images/graemlins/grin.gif /images/graemlins/grin.gif - I would no doubt lose respect for him to some degree, cause he would be so stupid....same way with bad news women...

but now he's dumped the has-been diva, I can safely say I don't think I'd want someone like him on my poker table...he knows too much /images/graemlins/smile.gif

congrats, Ben -

Have to agree with you there.

As long as he stays clear of that Hollywood Malaise he will be able to do quite well if he stays focused on the game.

I am happy he won. Seems like a very down to earth guy.

Never did like J.Lo -- to me she will always be a piece of basura from the Bronx.

The name under the picture says Affleck.

And anybody who has ever seen a Ben Affleck movie knows that's him in the picture.

Duh.

I'm pretty sure the guy wasn't serious.

TheGrifter really was serious. the website had a typo a few hours earlier. the same picture of ben affleck but had the name "Ben Afflick" listed below it.
