Default Re: game 2, i kind of wonder

i think they start with 640 apiece

i feel that jesus knew that if he folded here, it was basically over

and that he was about 40/60 behind/ahead....

i can't picture himself being really comfortable with the call at all........

oh well it's headsup, just not highly impressed with the call.

Title: Phil Completes His Comeback
Log: Both players are all in before the flop with A-Q for Phil Hellmuth and A-J for Chris Ferguson. The board comes 10-2-2-3-5, and Phil doubles up, taking a substantial chip lead.

Yeah they tend to do this a hell of a lot and it gets somewhat irritating.

Phil wins:

[ QUOTE ]
Phil Hellmuth still has the chip lead, but Chris Ferguson is quickly catching back up. Phil limps in from the small blind, and Chris raises all in. Phil leaps out of his seat as he calls immediately, throwing down pocket queens. Ferguson picked the wrong time to bluff, because he held K-6 suited. Once again, Phil is a big favorite to not only win the hand, but to claim the championship. But he's already been a big favorite twice and lost -- perhaps he should try getting his money in with the worst of it?
The flop comes J-10-6 , improving Chris Ferguson to a pair, and that leaves him with five outs (three kings and two sixes) to avoid elimination. He's already hit a 4-outer and a 2-outer against Phil, so having five outs to root for must seem like a luxury to Ferguson.

The turn card is a 10, so it all comes down to the last card -- again. And the river card is a ... wait ... could it be ... it looks like a ... but it isn't ... it's ... a ... 4.

Phil jumps up triumphantly and raises his fists straight up over his head. He turns to the crowd, and turns around in a complete circle, as if he wants to share the victory with everyone in the room. It doesn't take him long to remember Chris Ferguson, who had a fantastic tournament that involved far more than some lucky river cards. He went over and shook Chris's hand and accepted his congratulations, but then returned to his personal celebration.

Congratulations to Phil. Hope this shuts up some of the naysayers & jealous railbirds that have been dogging him for so long. Haven't seen the footage yet of course but from reading the reports it sounds like he played great.

"Phil will never win anything in the way of a meaningful tourney again"

This is pretty much what all the longtime Phil bashers on this board have said for about 6 months now as far as I can tell. Time for some big apologies....is Paul Phillips anywhere to be found?
