official final table thread

[nell789 0]

The Final table is currently being played right now, should be a good one.So far Darrell Dickens has put in a pre-flop raise in 6 out of the 11 hands played. It'll be interesting to see if he continues to be super agressive or if he eventually gets caught.

Hand #30 - Joanne J.J. Liu has the button in seat 4, Antonius raises to $200,000, and Laak thinks for a while before he pushes all of his chips ($2,060,000) into the middle from the small blind. Brunson folds from the big blind, and Antonius immediately calls -- with pocket aces (Ah-As). Laak is upset with himself as he shows Kd-3c, and he's a big underdog here.The flop comes Ks-Js-10d, and Laak picks up a pair of kings to give himself a fighting chance with five outs. The turn card is the Ad, which means Laak cannot win the pot -- although a queen on the river would put a straight on the board to chop the pot. But the last card is the 5h, and Phil "Unabomber" Laak is eliminated in sixth place, earning $160,995.What the heck was Laak thinking??? Wow that was a super bonehead play.

is there an internet broadcast?

No, just the live updates on cardplayer.com

Phil must secretly post here and had a hard-on to play the Krablar.That must really suck to play great for 4 days and piss your tournament away for no reason with the k-3 offsuit.That play makes Tiffany Williamson look like Johnny Chan.

[Guest XXEddie]

there no reason to puch allinif he thinks he's on a steal he should made it 600k-ish

[nell789 0]

Yeah, he was in very good chip position too...wasn't really shortstacked.Darrell dickens seems to be falling apart, calling with weak hands, and his over agressive image is getting him in trouble.

[gkunit20 1]

Two of the three guys I wanted to win are out so I gotta root for Doyle now. (Cassidy and Laak were the others.) JJ can't win because Jen has to be the first women to win a WPT title.

[gkunit20 1]

At least this final table isn't 89 hands long.

Darrell Dickens (Gigabet) is out after losing a coinflip with his 44 vs AJ

[gkunit20 1]

Antonius is dominating.

Antonius is dominating.

until this...<b>Hand #71</b> - Patrik Antonius has the button in seat 2, he raises to $300,000, and Liu calls from the big blind. The flop comes Ac-7c-6h, and both players check. The turn card is the 3c (putting three clubs on the board), Liu bets $300,000, and Antonius calls. The river card is the 9d, Liu checks, Antonius bets $1,000,000, and Liu thinks for about two minutes before calling. Antonius shows 4-2 (the nut low), and Liu shows A-J (pair of aces) to win.

I love how they felt the need to point out that he had the nut low. m/ANTINUTZm/

again, WHY RISK YOUR ENTIRE STACKa raise to 700k does the same thing and if patirck calls the 700k as opposed to the 2 mil, Laak is down to 1.3 mil, not ZERO

I agree with you.Reraising is right.Also I understand why he moved in in stead of just raising to 700k.Patrik is super agrisvive and can very easily come over the top of a 700 k raise with a marginal hand and take the pot away from phil.BTW Doyle has doubled up to the lead.

ya im pulln for doyle...but that patric guy is relentlous...he wont stop...one of these hands doyle is gunna trap him and that patrik guy will be drawing dead when 10 million chips go in the middle

[SFkid 0]

looks like doyle will have to move soon with the blins going up.

[nell789 0]

What's whit doyle limping all the time. I mean it's fine if you're setting up a trap, but with the blinds so high so fast, there's no time for that anymore....FIV is very important right now, It's basically the bubble of a party sng.

[SFkid 0]

wow doyle doubles up again. it is truly anyones game now.

[HangukMiguk 8]

wow doyle doubles up again. it is truly anyones game now.

3 handed - with 2nd and 3rd so close, one of two things is going to happen:1. Antonius will steamroll brunson & pederson, and one of them will pick him off, and take them chip lead.2. Brunson will play position over Pederson, and eventually cripple him.If Brunson and Pederson give Antonius no chance to take their stacks, this will remain anyone's game. If Antonius eliminates either player, it's going to be an interesting comeback story heads up.

[HangukMiguk 8]

Wow...as I typed that, Doyle did exactly that.I'm clairvoyant :shock:

[nell789 0]

Brunson doubles and takes the chip lead!!!

I dont know if there is enough time to set at trap. It will most likely come to a heads up match between doyle and antonius. It will be a coin flip from there.
