Re: Moneymaker playing 30/60 Stud/8 on Stars
I want Moneymaker to play more stud/8, am sure the Stars tables were softer than usual with people trying it out as word got around Moneymaker was playing, I only recognised 1 person at my stud/8 1/2 table when I usually recognise 3+. Ended my 3 hours playing up 27 BBs, the other regular I recognised ended up 25 BBs, I think I'll join the Moneymaker fanclub!

Re: Moneymaker playing 30/60 Stud/8 on Stars
Mike, we don't have to get started on the whole Moneymaker's a fish baloney, but I briefly skimmed through his book while at a bookstore, and it seems he was a losing low limit hold em player on line before he won WSOP. It would not surprise me if he has no clue how to play 8/B. |

Re: Moneymaker playing 30/60 Stud/8 on Stars
I actually bought and read his book for my flight home form college last summer and it was a good read. He was/is a degenerate gambler though. He placed well in one the WCOOP stud8 events so I assume that maybe he feels he has a feel for the game? I think it just proves my theory that stud8 tournaments involve a TON of luck. Either way...bad for him, good for mscags and jeffage.

Here's the link showing "Money800" finishing 3rd in Event #12 of the WCOOP-Stud Hi/Lo. "Emptyseat" is Scott Fishman finishing 2nd and "Fossilman" in 44th. http://www.pokerstars.com/2005wcoop/event12.html FWIW, he also finished 16th in the Stud Event http://www.pokerstars.com/2005wcoop/event09.html |
