  1. I am very interested in getting into the league but it is full. Are there any plans to add a 2nd league? $500 is very reasonable for a guaranteed 16 matches plus playoffs. I think that is a great idea and I think it will really take off.
  2. First off, let me say that I am a big fan of this blog. I have been reading it for over a year. I just think that Daniel is using it as his own personal advertising space. I understand that is part of being a public figure, I just think he is going too far and it is getting out of hand. He must have typed www.fullcontactpoker.com about 100 times in the last month. We know where you play now so you don't have to tell us.I am assuming that you no longer have a contract with the Wynn since you actually mentioned the Bellagio in one of your blogs. I am going to end this post now because I am thir
  3. He is the best example of what is wrong with poker. People see him act that way and they want to immulate him. We still live in a society where respect for others is important.I was playing in a $5-$10 NL at the Wynn last month and this kid (could'nt have been a day older than 22) goes over the top of my $50 raise with an all in $750. I have AA so of course I call. He turns over A-9 off. He ends up a 9 high straight and starts taunting me and yelling "That's what you get when you F#@$ with the man." I see this kinda stuff all the time and it makes me sick. There are a few guys out there who
  4. This reminds me of my girlfriend playing blackjack. She gets dealt an 11 with a dealer 6 showing and I tell her to double down. She says "no, i don't have a good feeling about it." WTF? A good feeling? If you are gonna play, play right! If you really do play that way, please let me know so I can be there to collect.
  5. Remember when Tiger Woods started to dominate everyone. All the other players bithced and complained that all the attention was going to Tiger. Tiger was responsible for changing the game of golf for the better. Even though all the attention was on him, more people were watching. More people watching meant bigger prize pools and bigger endorsements. Not just for Tiger, but for all the golfers.Same thing is true here. You put Johnny Chan, Doyle Brunson, and Phil Hellmuth in the tourney and more people will watch. DN, I know you are able to look at the big picture and see that anything that wil
  6. Ubpoker. For some reason you are doubleing the math in this situation. We know there are 6 clubs gone so there are 7 left out of 45 unknown cards. This gives BG a 15.56% chance of hitting club on turn and (if he does not hit it on the turn) a 15.91% chance to hit on river. This is a total of 31.47% chance of flushing before the turn. For some reason you think he has a 6 to 4 chance and that is incorrect. BG would tell you himself that if he knew his only outs were clubs he made a bad call. DN was trying to get value for his situation. He welcomed the call because the odds were in his favor. T
  7. First of all Major, you have used the phrase "with all due respect" about 500 times already so find another one.Second of all, they were in Las Vegas. Home of 1000 poker rooms. So if they were not comfortable with the stakes or style of play, leaving was an option. Even if they had to wait 30 minutes. It was not a captive audience.You are acting like DN had been cheating. He did everything within the rules ot that casino.
  8. The Wynn is the only poker room I know of that does not have maximum buy ins on their NL tables. I sat for 4 hours on their $2-$5 NL table with an ititial buyin of $5000 and I doubled my money. If you play there, you accept the risk that someone can buyin for a huge amount and buy pots. If you can't handle other players being aggresive, then stay away from the wynn. You will walk away broke and upset.That beig said, I don't think that is very good practice for tournament play. That is a great way to get busted in a tourney because your chip stack is finite.(unless it is a rebuy tourney) . It
  9. Any tourney where Kathy Leibert does well is suspicious. Whenever she is on I can't watch. She is the most irritating person on the planet. I played in a tourney with her once at the Hustler in LA and she was scary. I think she had to spend 3 hours in hair and makeup before they let her on TV....it did'nt help.
  10. Does anyone know when and where they will film PS 3? Is it going to be at casino morongo again?
