Re: WPT Final 6 (Clearly Official 5 Diamond Day 5 Thread)
Antonius just finished off Laak. Picked up another $2 million or so.
1 Patrik Antonius $ 6,010,000 2 Joanne 'J.J.' Liu $ 4,845,000 3 Darrell Dicken $ 2,585,000 4 Rehne Pedersen $ 2,430,000 5 Doyle Brunson $ 815,000 Patrik has picked up FOUR MILLION in an hour and a half. Doyle's chips have mostly magically disappeared. (from PokerWire) |

Re: WPT Final 6 (Clearly Official 5 Diamond Day 5 Thread)
Hand #30 - Joanne J.J. Liu has the button in seat 4, Antonius raises to $200,000, and Laak thinks for a while before he pushes all of his chips ($2,060,000) into the middle from the small blind. Brunson folds from the big blind, and Antonius immediately calls -- with pocket aces (Ah-As). Laak is upset with himself as he shows Kd-3c, and he's a big underdog here. The flop comes Ks-Js-10d, and Laak picks up a pair of kings to give himself a fighting chance with five outs. The turn card is the Ad, which means Laak cannot win the pot -- although a queen on the river would put a straight on the board to chop the pot. But the last card is the 5h, and Phil "Unabomber" Laak is eliminated in sixth place, earning $160,995. The next player eliminated will receive $241,495 for fifth place. _____ On another note, J.J. has yet to lose a pot tonight. Don't understand what Phil was thinking there.... sounds like a huge risk just to win 200k. |

Man Phil Laak is gonna be thinking about that dumb move for a LONG time. Difference between first and 6th is 1.9 million. Jebus! Got through 484 and only needed 5 more people to go through and ya screw it up.

Re: WPT Final 6 (Clearly Official 5 Diamond Day 5 Thread)
Question: does anyone know what the WPT blind structure is? I know they use a different one for the final table.

Re: WPT Final 6 (Clearly Official 5 Diamond Day 5 Thread)
[censored].
Doyle Brunson Doubles Through Darrell "Gigabet" Dicken Log: Hand #31 - There is a dead button in seat 5, and Brunson moves all in from the small blind. Dicken calls with As-Jc, but Brunson dominates him with Ad-Kc. The flop comes 10c-9s-7d, and Dicken picks up a gut-shot straight draw, and he can win with an eight or a jack. The turn card is the 5s, the river card is the 2h, and Doyle Brunson doubles up in chips to over $1.6 million. EDIT: This means Gigabet is down to about 1.6 million as well. =/ |

If Antonius folds, he picks up a 400K pot and maybe K3o won't be in too bad shape if heis called. Notice Antonius made a small raise to 2.5xBB. The Unabomber undoubtably interpreted that as a weak attempt to steal the blinds. |

Re: WPT Final 6 (Clearly Official 5 Diamond Day 5 Thread)
Doyle just hauled in a pot from Patrik, so he's over where he started from at over $2 million.
