Limit TalkPosted < 1 min. by Happy_Freaked• Level 2We just caught a standard hand with fun chatter over at table #356 between Jameson Painter and Daniel Negreanu. Painter is quite the experienced Limit Hold'em player with three World Series of Poker final tables under his belt. His biggest result came back in 2010 when he finished fourth in the $10,000 Limit Hold'em Championship cashing $140,760.The Canadian super star doesn't need an introduction but some of you guys might not know two of his four bracelets came in this particular game. in 2008 he won the $2,000 event cashing $204,863, and back in 2004 he won the same event which earned him $169,100.The hand started with a raise from Painter who was under the gun and both the button and the big blind, Negreanu, called. The flop came down and Negreanu check-called Painter's bet. The turn was the and Negreanu check-called 400 this time. On the river the showed up and the same bet got check-called. Painter turned over for a turned set and Negreanu mucked his hand after which the chatter started."You fold when I check-raise the flop right?," Daniel Negreanu just said to his neighbor Jameson Painter who sarcastically replied with, "Right..."."15 years ago they would've just folded queens there to a check-raise there right?," Eugene Katchalov added jokingly."15 years ago you would fold jacks after a three-bet. Let's say someone raised under the gun and middle position would three-bet, you would just fold jacks. Nowadays you four-bet and the first player has ace-eight and the other king-jack," Negreanu replied, while some good old Limit Hold'em banter started."Sklansky said you had to fold ace-queen under the gun," Jameson Painter snapped back while the dealer was tossing out another round of cards. The first couple of levels are easy goingm and it seems as the players are enjoying this mechanical game so far. It will starting at some point, that's one thing we know for sure!Read more: http://www.pokernews...-limit-hold-em/

Structure ChatPosted 7 minutes ago by procession• Level 2Daniel Negreanu's table has by far been the most chatty in the tournament. Recently they have been talking about the new structure of this event."I like this structure," said the player in the nine seat."I've been trying to get them to do this to the structure for years, and it's payed off, because everyone seems happy," replied Negreanu.At this point one of the tournament directors overheard the conversation and came bounding toward the table."We lost one player already Daniel, that's gotta be impossible in a limit tournament," the TD said."No, that's how it should be," started Negreanu. "Years ago we would start with 5,000 in chips and the levels would be 10-20, 15-30, 20-40 and the whole tournament would still be in six hours later."The consensus around the tournament area is that it is definitely a welcomed change to the structure and we'll see if the opinions stay the same throughout the tournament.Read more: http://www.pokernews...-limit-hold-em/
