I truly believe they should raise the buyin to $50k.

I also agree. If you took inflation alone, the 10k buyin in 1970 is worth over 50k in 2005.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but it seems Hachem has been playing pretty solid, and I give him credit for hanging on so long shortstacked.

I hope he finishes second to Tex.

[/ QUOTE ]

Agree completely. I think he has got really cold decked tonight and bullied because of it many times. He has been holding his own despite this all night.

He's been playing tight. He's really the only person that seems like they are just trying to move up the payscale.

this seemed optimal for a stop 'n go

[/ QUOTE ]

Especially in hindsight. I might have played it that way, but then again I suck. But if an overcard flops, it gets trickier. On a flop like that though, he probably wins it. Then there's the possibility that you're against JJ-AA.

Like what's been said about Ivey, for example, Black seemed a lot better than some of these guys, maybe try to play smaller pots and see flops.

But like I said, some better analysis might prove me to be wrong about this.

who is to say that Donkeyman wouldnt call an all in stop and go in this situation anyway? he would probably think Black is trying to steal and thinks his AK is ahead.

That's why I said he probably wins it. There's still a chance he calls with overs and sucks out.

He doesn't have to fold a lot to make it a good play.

Either way, its hard to run a stop and go from the button.

WTF?

Phil: Moneymaker didn't improve his game.

Jesus: Moneymaker did improve his game.

Phil: Absolutely. I agree.

[/ QUOTE ]

Jesus is really good. Phil rants and goes too far. Jesus corrects him but just goes well, you know...
And then Phil rants some more like what Jesus said was his idea the whole time.
