Default Re: Anyone seen James Woods online or live?

[ QUOTE ]
About this year's WSOP Main Event, I'd like to know how far he got and any interesting anecdotes about how he played or what he did away from the table.

IIRC he busted out after about 8 hours on day 1C. No interesting anecdotes, he was just a generally low-key friendly guy willing to sign autographs for a few of the players at the table. He said that he had played in several of the events and that he hadn't gotten any results yet. He played extremely tightly and his stack noticeably dwindled due to the blinds and antes. Then on his bustout hand I believe he raised UTG, led out with moderate bets on a low rag flop and turn against the UTG+1 caller (young Swede), and quickly pushed for about the size of the pot on the river J. I think it was for 2/3 of UTG+1's chips. UTG+1 thought for 15 seconds before calling. Woods had 55, Swede had QQ. Woods smirked/grimaced, picked up his iPod, said good luck to everyone and waved to a smattering of applause as he made the 20-minute trek to the exit.
