Ivey's down about a million without showing down a hand. Not good.

Five Feet From the action
Log: CardPlayer.com is set up about five feet from the feature table in Benny's Bullpen. Stay with us for all the action and commentary today as we go from 27 players down to a final nine. Play is scheduled to kick off at 3 p.m.

Now all they need is Kevin Nealon to call the action.

I'm forced to take the side of Jack here. If there was ever a time to follow TDA rules it's now.

6) Penalties: A penalty MAY be invoked if a player exposes any card with action pending, if a card(s) goes off the table, if softplay occurs, or similar incidents take place. Penalties WILL be invoked in cases of abuse, disruptive behavior, or similar incidents.

A full copy of TDA rules can be found here. http://www.thepokerforum.com/tdarules.htm

Title: Sheikhan Doubles Up
Log: All-in pre-flop, Mike Matusow calls Shawn Sheikhan's all-in after raising. Matusow shows 7-2, while Sheikhan has Queens. The flop comes A-A-5-8-A, and Sheikhan doubles up to $400,000 with Aces full. Matusow comments "I gotta play tighter. I read Phil Hellmuth's book and I thought seven deuce was a good hand." Shawn Sheikhan goes on to steal the blinds on the very next hand.

Mike just gained about a million cool points.

Is there anyone that likes this f-bomb rule?

I think I'd be able to tolerate it if the tournament were taking place at Robious Middle School. Given that it's not, well...

Title: Table Play Varies Across the Room
Log: Three distinct styles of play are occuring at the three tables remaining. At the featured table there have already been a few all-ins, at table 117 there has already been some drama between a couple of players, and at table 129 play has slowed to almost a stop.

I'm guessing this is H-DOG the Sundial's table? [img]/images/graemlins/smirk.gif[/img] If not, she's apparently infected the room...

Re: WSOP Day 6: \"Official\" Results, News & Discussion (Part 2)
 

Actually H-DOG is at 117.

Cool, I stand corrected.
