Tournament of Champions

Anyone watch this tonight? Raymer had said something about how he could see Howard with an MBA before his poker career and then I believe Doyle chimed in by saying he should have become an actuary. Did I hear this right?

[apoc]

yes you heard right

[Bama Gambler]

Phil is a tool, but we already knew that.

[Elston Gunn]

Raymer - not very impressive. Calling all ins with 9 10 os?

Hellmuth - how much does that guy love himself? Loved the AQ fold against Chan and Lederer.

Lederer - scary good.

Duke - looked completely outclassed at that table (but would still b1tch slap me).

[Spidurman]

Oh cmon - the real highlight was seeing how little anyone else at the table liked Hellmuth.

or daniel chasing down the same flush as lederer (I think it was) after coming in with 47s....and then, after being suspecious of the low bet, he decides to raise and waste more money into the pot.

[Bama Gambler]

I forgot it was on and didn't tune in until the hand where Raymer got knocked out.

[Expunge]

the 9To was prolly the right move. he was a chip leader and already committed 50k or so and had to call another 50k to win a pot that was now 150k.

FossilMan's take
