*Official* WCCOP #1 (Sweat, Updates, Etc)

no one responding i'll take means no one knows...
i'm going to say (beecause it would be cool) that toprose is a pro....he not only must think he's a better player than Snow, but his financial situation is good enough that he can chance the 180k... that and he's from LV.. and well he's heads up for the championship.

[shaniac]

I think toprose is Bob Stupak.

Hasn't anyone speculate on who Snow is? Isn't Downey where a lot of pros live, too?

[Jurollo]

Snow would be best to get into a tight aggressive mode now, and sucker toprose into a big pot like he just did, Snow seems willing to take the coin flop for the title right now though and so does toprose, could end any time now.

[Scuba Chuck]

More fun. Do you find this chat interesting. I liked the push by toprose and then shows the A5, and find much humor in the criticism he gets for it.

Anyway... another power change....

Obviously, I had no intention of folding here.

He's only chancing 120K, and really only half of that.

I'm surprised so many of us here would auto-chop.

FS, great run. You have the envy of many. FWIW, I would have called that raise with virtually any two cards. Holding the A just made it that much more sweet.
