FCP Bob 1,323 Posted June 13, 2013 Share Posted June 13, 2013 Day 1 ofEvent #23 the $2,500 Seven-Card Stud tournament was Wednesday and Daniel has made Day 2 with a shortish stack. Updates are on Poker News and Daniel is sending his usual Tweets. Good Luck Daniel http://www.pokernews...even-card-stud/ https://twitter.com/...er/with_replies Daniel's Twitter Updates Daniel Negreanu @RealKidPoker 14h Something extremely sad to me about playing the ONLY stud tourney of the WSOP.The stud championship had amazing finals and now it is no more Daniel Negreanu @RealKidPoker 14h The WSOP never used to be so heavily focused on numbers. It was a festival of various poker games. The trend is disheartening. Daniel Negreanu @RealKidPoker 14h The WSOP used to be a place where people learned new games but now they don't have to learn anything but NL holdem it's offered daily. Daniel Negreanu @RealKidPoker 14h WSOP schedule was fantastic when we had 11 $10k championship events in all forms of poker yet still accommodated the big field NLH events. Daniel Negreanu @RealKidPoker 14h If that trend continues you will see guys like Ivey totally stop playing the WSOP and the prestige and brand weaken year by year Daniel Negreanu @RealKidPoker 12h @dnchips 10,850 end level 2 hot start made lots of hands in the $2500 Stud event Daniel Negreanu @RealKidPoker 10h @DNChips 11,825 end level 4 of the Stud event Daniel Negreanu @RealKidPoker 7h @dnchips 14,050 end level 6 playing 400-800 and 5000-1000 last two hours of the night Daniel Negreanu @RealKidPoker 6h @DNChips was down to 900 doubled up twice to 4000 playing 500-1000 limits Daniel Negreanu @RealKidPoker 5h Was all in for 900 30 min ago in the Stud and made day 2 with 10,500. Playing 600-1200 tomorrow might as well win it Day 2 Tweets Daniel Negreanu @RealKidPoker 4h 7 stud is art. There aren't simple rules or a chart you can follow, the game is so board dependent and loads of variables affect decisions. Daniel Negreanu @RealKidPoker 4h A shame more young players don't try it. I hear them say stud is their worst game and I think it's because they can't succeed without rules. Daniel Negreanu @RealKidPoker 4h The game can be taught but the best stud players all have great feel and card sense and there is no substitute for experience Daniel Negreanu @RealKidPoker 2h @DNChips end level 10 44,500 70 players left avg is 25k going to 1k-2k limits top 32 make the money Daniel Negreanu @RealKidPoker 1h Lots of Omaha 8 players still in this Stud tourney. About 10 or so will be missing that tournament. I will likely drop a stack anyway. Daniel Negreanu @RealKidPoker 15m @dnchips end level 12 69,600 going to 1500-3000 just got bluffed in such a silly pot lol. Oh well. Avg is 43k doing well 42 players left Daniel Negreanu @RealKidPoker 7h In the money in the $2500 "Stud Championship" avg is 57k I have 30k playing 2k-4k limits Daniel Negreanu @RealKidPoker 6h @dnchips 28 left I have 10,400 left to play 2500-5000 limit. Tried two bluffs today both against the wrong guys apparently lol Daniel Negreanu @RealKidPoker 5h Busted the Stud 26th place JJ vs AA had to beat trip aces with JJQQ caught a paint but it was a King.

FCP Bob 1,323 Posted June 13, 2013 Author Share Posted June 13, 2013 Day 1 Ends with Friedman Out in Front; Jerry Buss Honored Day 1 of Event #23: $2,500 Seven-Card Stud has come to a close. A small, but stout field of 246 competitors took to the felt today, and it was Adam Friedman who proved to be the player soaring the highest at day's end. Friedman, who won the $5,000 Seven-Card Stud Hi/Lo event last year, bagged up a field-leading 48,300 in chips. Following not too far behind on Friedman's heels are Freddie Ellis, winner of the $10,000 World Championship Seven-Card Stud in 2009, Bertrand "ElkY" Grospellier, winner of the $10,000 Seven-Card Stud Championship in 2011, Rex Clinkscales and Mike Leah. Outside of that group of players, Gary Benson, David Chiu, Greg Raymer, Daniel Negreanu, David Bach, Bill Chen, Andrey Zaichenko and Cyndy Violette. On the flip side of the coin, Jason Mercier, Phil Ivey, Sam Grizzle, Joe Cassidy, David "Bakes" Baker and Barry Greenstein were all eliminated. While some great poker was played today, much of the news came from just before play. The World Series of Poker honored the late and great Dr. Jerry Buss with a few special words from WSOP Tournament Director Jack Effel and poker pro Chad Brown. Then, an extremely special "shuffle up and deal" announcement was given via video by none other than Kobe Bryant to kick things off. A special framed photo of Buss was placed behind an honorary stack next to Ivey's seat to begin the day, and there were a lot of warm feelings in the room as the players exchanged stories throughout the day about Buss and his love for the game of poker. With just over 100 players remaining, the action will resume on Thursday at 2 p.m. local Las Vegas time. Be sure to head right back here to PokerNews for all the live coverage.
