Re: WSOP Day 5: \"Official\" News, Results, and Discussion
 

Damn Raymer took a hit late last night.. Atleast he got a decent table.

Looks like they are way ahead of schedule.. If they get down to 9 tonite, are they going to hold the final table on Thursday or Friday as schedule?

Re: WSOP Day 5: \"Official\" News, Results, and Discussion
 

They're gonna play down to 27 today, I believe.

Re: WSOP Day 5: \"Official\" News, Results, and Discussion
 

Why the disparity in table size-from 7 to 10 players?

Re: WSOP Day 5: \"Official\" News, Results, and Discussion
 

Day 5 - Wednesday, July 13: Play starts at 12:00 noon. Play will continue until it is down to the final three tables, which is 27 players.


Day 6 - Thursday, July 14: This is the first day of action at Binion's Horseshoe downtown. Play will begin at 3:00 pm, and continue until the final ten players are at the same table. They will then continue playing at the TV table until the unfortunate TV bubble is burst, and only nine players are left.


Day 7 - Friday, July 15: The Final Table! By the time the final table starts at 2:00 pm, you should know everything about these nine people, from their first poker game to their most recent tournament victory. They play down to a single winner, who will become the 2005 World Series of Poker champion.

Re: WSOP Day 5: \"Official\" News, Results, and Discussion
 

i actually know the kid in 44th place. this is pretty cool following this.

Re: WSOP Day 5: \"Official\" News, Results, and Discussion
 

posting again for the start of day 5...

wow, first table is gonna be ESPN

raymer and ivey are on tables full of nobodys, good stuff

and i didn't even notice hung la was still in it (regular from commerce, plays 100-200 limit and higher)

to raymer, matusow, ivey, juanda, la, i wanna say this:

PS - omg the luske copying jerkoff is still in it [img]/images/graemlins/mad.gif[/img]

Re: WSOP Day 5: \"Official\" News, Results, and Discussion
 

Raymer, Ivey, and Juanda all drew pretty good tables. Neverwin picked up a bad draw, on what I'm guessing with be ESPN's feature table.

Re: WSOP Day 5: \"Official\" News, Results, and Discussion
 

At this stage, is the seating supposed to be totally random?

Re: WSOP Day 5: \"Official\" News, Results, and Discussion
 

It shouldn't take all night to make it to 27 so the players should all be able to have some time off and come back well rested the next day.

Re: WSOP Day 5: \"Official\" News, Results, and Discussion
 

I've got mixed feelings about this. I basically want to see him suffer, yet have to admit the television would be more interesting with him there.

All in all, I'd have to root for him either to just miss making the final table, or perhaps be the first person eliminated at the final table. Either way, I'd like his opponent to catch him on a bluff.

Yeah, that would be nice.
Honestly, I don't usually wish for anyone to fail, but Matusow completely lost me with his "Vindication!" bit at the Aruba WPT event.

Re: WSOP Day 5: \"Official\" News, Results, and Discussion
 

pretty sure that the seating is always random.

also i read like 2 days ago that they had moved from 10handed to 9. apparently not.

Re: WSOP Day 5: \"Official\" News, Results, and Discussion
 

yes seating is random, im just hoping to see the 2 collide at some point or another. it would make GREAT TV too.

Either way, I'd like his opponent to catch him on a bluff by calling with something incredibly marginal, like Q-high, so that we can watch him completley implode.

Re: WSOP Day 5: \"Official\" News, Results, and Discussion
 

just because hes the only guy with a bit of character thats left, you want him to fail?

after what hes gone through this year, id love him to win it, but then nobody seems to have any sense of humour in this forum

Re: WSOP Day 5: \"Official\" News, Results, and Discussion

Huh?

You must be talking about the comedic value of watching him, because while Matusow is a character, he's never been accused of having a lot of character.

Huh?

I have a fine sense of humor, but that doesn't mean I have to root for jerks just because I might get a kick out of it. Let someone who doesn't view himself as a god win the money.

Yes, I know some people claim Matusow is really a nice guy who just gets too worked up sometimes, but I only care about how he acts at the poker table.

Re: WSOP Day 5: \"Official\" News, Results, and Discussion
 

Could someone please tell me what Matusow has done to make people hate him?

What was this "vindication" thing? And what did he do/say to Greg Raymer?

Re: WSOP Day 5: \"Official\" News, Results, and Discussion
 

14. Tom Sartori $ 1,208,000

Anyone have information on Tom Sartori, perhaps a picture or something? There is a singer/songwriter from my town with the same name. I noticed he was in 20th yesterday, however I figured there are probably plenty of "Tom Sartoris" in the world and just assumed it wasn't the local celebrity. However, on a top 25 radio station this morning they were talking about him, so now I'm intrigued to find out whether it's him or not. I didn't even know he played poker, anyone know anything about his ability? ESPN will love his story, he's a decent looking guy, plays music for a living, etc. Some guys have all the luck!

Thanks for any help.

My friend Ben called Matusow's all-in bet on a 943 flop on day 2 with K3. Matusow had J7o, no pair, no draw. He rivered his J. Now Ben is sitting home and Matusow has 2.5 mill. Painful.

whats the deal with matusow getting a 40 minute penalty? i saw reference to this in another thread but didnt find any info on what exactly he did or said nor what the penalty was for?

Re: WSOP Day 5: \"Official\" News, Results, and Discussion
 

Tom Sartori, he is musicboy1 from Pokerroom. I have him pegged as a fish in the 5-10 and 10-20 games there, but he's a cool guy.

His homepage: http://www.tomsartori.com/bio.htm

Matusow brings a lot of emotion to the table. I love watching him. I'm not saying I'd like him to [censored] my sister, but, WTF, he's fun!

Re: WSOP Day 5: \"Official\" News, Results, and Discussion
 

943 flop on day 2 with K3. Matusow had J7o, no pair, no draw

... I guess running cards doesn't count as a draw any more.

Not that I disagree that Mike got lucky.

Now we\'ll see how Fossilman plays with a weaker stack
 

He drew a good table to make a recovery at methinks.
We'll see how Greg plays when he's not the big bully stack. Show them how it's done, Fossilman.

I also stand in the "hope he busts The Mouth" camp. Mike is great television for ESPN, but that childishness rubs me raw. I don't know if that's better or worse than "DAHHHHHHHHHH!" every damn hand...

I'm floored! I can't believe Tom Sartori is in 14th place. Thank you very much for this information. He's a nice guy and an entertaining musician and he really is "sleeping w/ angels" the last girl I saw him with was a super model. Oh and his license plate reads "musicboy1" Too funny, I didn't know he played poker. Thanks again!!

Re: Now we\'ll see how Fossilman plays with a weaker stack
 

I am very interested to see this too. He cant bully anymore but he will have to be supperagressive should be interesting.

Re: Now we\'ll see how Fossilman plays with a weaker stack
 

Not a big fan of the Felon either but Mike is entertaining.

Early on his day 1, he allegedly threw his cards at the dealer, who called the floor. He then dropped an f-bomb, then 3 more after that in rapid succession, earning him 40 minutes in penalties.

3-1 Ivey winning it
 

Someone willing to give me 3-1 on a 25-50 dollar bet that Ivey wins it all....... Maulik????? I also like 1-1 Ivey will make final table...

On him winning it? No way him making the final table fo sure....

Re: WSOP Day 5: \"Official\" News, Results, and Discussion
 

Ivey's got twice as many chips as the second largest stack at his table. He should tear this thing apart.
