Re: wsop $5k Omaha -- TV table at 10 players -- any doubt why?
[ QUOTE ]
For all intense and purpose he is one of the shortest stacks. Anyway, it's not really a conspiracy theory at all. I think it's just good business and the only explanation that makes sense. If you look at the blog you'll see that the players were dropping like flies and many of them had significant stacks. Anyway, no big deal. I know I love it when a TV poker show has Phil in it and I'm sure most people feel the same way so I hope he last long. [/ QUOTE ] I have no reason to believe my friend would mislead me, but agreed that Hellmuth makes for great tv. And while people may have been dropping like flies, there is real value to the players to making a TV table (and cashing, obviously). I think the bubble player would've taken meaningfully longer than any prior player elimination

I'm checking the HH and Ivey is limping a lot of pots and taking them down uncontested on the flop. He's blowing everyone off everything and when it gets to showdown he has the best hand.

Ivey already has 4, this would be his 5th
