"Official" Live at the Bike thread (11/10) (10/20 NL)

Kevmath · #1 11-10-2005, 09:45 PM

Tonight's game is scheduled to be 10/20 NL, with a minimum buyin of $1000. Bart's told me there's a couple of action players, including someone who used to be a regular on the show that hasn't been seen in a while.

Last night's 50/100 NL "Whale Game" had what seemed like at least 10 $15k+ hands, with a few of those around the $25k range. Plenty of action to be had, except for Ed Shazarian. He takes down the largest pot on the show, spiking a flush on the river for about $28k, and then a couple hands later sticks an ultra-tight player to play his chips. He's the type of player you want in the game, but when he gets lucky he'll pull off the hit and run on the table. For those who want to see all the 5/10 NL hijinks, www.liveatthebike.com from 6-9pm PT. Hopefully tonight they'll actually start the show on time tonight and have a full 3 hours.

I'm just wondering how much Barry finished up last night. He was staging a late session comeback after getting sucked out for 20K plus...we'll see if he is playing or posting tonight.

edit: Anyone wanna take a 10 minute over/under on how late their gonna start tonight?

I really have tremendous respect for anyone who can handle the swings in this crazy game. It's a good thing Mr. Calloway golf wasn't there last night or he'd have gone off on Yosh about Ed again.

I only watch LATB every once in a while.

Just curious, how often do the "big name" poker players play on there?

On the highlight reel, there are several TV players that are on that but I have yet to see one when I have time to tune in.

Thanks.

Barry had one of the worst nights I have ever seen anyone have.

There were quite a few around when Legends was being held. Sometimes the Friday shows will have someone like Kenna James.

Wednesday/Friday are the nights you're more like to see a known player since the games are higher limit NL games those nights.

I've probably only averaged 1 episode/week since they debuted, but I've seen Barry Greenstein a few times, ditto Tuan Lee, Hassan Habib, and Greg Raymer.

And what's-her-name from Full Tilt that Tuch thinks is the greatest player ever (not) was in that one episode reading a book...

Nice to see Gor has finally gotten over getting crushed by Barry. And a Bartgasm on the first hand as 72sooted busts Mo's pocket aces. Nice suckout.

Oh boy - 7-2 wins!! First Bartgasm.
