Re: Johnny Chan going for 10th bracelet, Hellmuth contemplating suicid
[ QUOTE ]
[ QUOTE ] I followed the results on Cardplayer, this has good tv written all over it. [/ QUOTE ] This has "five ESPN executive fired yesterday" written all over it. ESPN didn't film this event. Great decision, no doubt. [/ QUOTE ] Final Table Preparations Log: ESPN has prepped the final table for Johnny Chan and Phil Laak to battle heads-up for the bracelet. Play will be resuming soon.

Brunson is near the top of the heap in the 5K PLO event, too. Wouldn't it be a hoot if Brunson scored a 10th bracelet... [/ QUOTE ] It would be great if Doyle won a bracelet this year... Phil is always bragging about his 9 bracelets.

He won't win it. There won't be a 10th bracelet winner this year that is my prediction! [/ QUOTE ] Nice prediction! Well done Johnny - awesome result. Also, did anyone notice that our own Gigabet was 13th? Shouts out to him too!

Re: Johnny Chan going for 10th bracelet, Hellmuth contemplating suicide
Are you joking? ESPN would love to have Phil's crying on camera.

Re: Johnny Chan going for 10th bracelet, Hellmuth contemplating suicide
This is from Paul Phillips blog: Link
[ QUOTE ] I am awed that I lived to see this day. Late last night, Johnny Chan won his TENTH world series of poker bracelet. TEN BRACELETS! I know there are quite a few players with single digit bracelet counts, but all you can feel toward those people is pity. There is Johnny Chan and his DOUBLE DIGIT bracelet count, and then there is the crowded tie for second among everyone else and their pathetic single digit counts. The poker world now falls into only two meaningful categories: one great poker player with TEN BRACELETS and the bevy of also-rans. Perhaps someday another will have ten bracelets, but who could possibly care at that point? All we'll be able to think about that is "Welcome to June 2005, Mr. Johnny-Chan-Come-Lately!" Johnny [censored] Chan and his ten bracelets. Wow. I tip my cap and I tip it again. AWESOME. [/ QUOTE ] I wonder if he'd have posted this if it had been Phil H. --Zetack
