how zeejustin won a 500,000 tournament


Recommended Posts

found this: Whats cool about this video is that it actually shows how Zee got to the final table and became the cheapleader. It shows how he went from a regular stack to overtaking the field. And there was NO chop at final table!!! ZEE wanted more money but the other players didnt want to give him, so they battled it out. Enjoy....soundtrack is from the matrix.many pros think zeejustin is too much of a show off .... but i thnk he does have a good record online.. he took the pokerstars weekly big tournamnet and partypoker big tournament in the SAME month..not bad...http://thepiratebay.org/details.php?id=3439939I'll seed it right now....

ZeeJustin is awesome, I agree. I remember the tourney well, and that was some sick chip building
Yeah like that time he goes all in preflop with 77 against A Q... Flops A high... turns a Q... and we all know what came next... thank you Pokerstars for hitting a 7 on the river... Sick chip building... more like a sick 7 for his tourney life... I like Zee... but comeon

Just barely.Zeejustin also handed out a ton of bad beats once he got big. talking people having him dominated 3:1 all over the place in substantial pots.

This torrent crap is pretty cool. Fast to. I'm DL'ing at 200Kbps and it's still going up. I'm downloading from 10 peers and uploading to 5. This wasn't as bad as I thought it was going to be. Cooooooooool. It's almost as good as DC++ which rules.Brad

wow, I just finished watching that. That was insane. That was a good movie considering that it was recorded on someone's desktop. It kept me interested the whole way. If you read the observer chat and try to watch the play, it's a really good movie. The movie also made me feel like an idiot, though. What do you think Zee was doing when he called time out? Do you think he was doing the numbers or was he just staring at the screen and recreating the hand?

Teneight, come on. For once, give us some info. You won about $30K in a tourney once, right? A tourney similar to Zeejustins. Compare his play to what you consider proper poker or how you play. There was a lot of editing in the movie. That's probably an 8 hour poker tourney. Maybe more. So I'm not seeing what Zee saw but still calling all-ins with Q6 in BB. That was a crazy play but he wasn't risking much of his stack at that point. The craziest play was the A Q hand. Board was like: 3 4 8 9 .It was raised preflop. I can't remember preflop action but flop went check, check. On the turn, the 9 hit. The has $330,000 on him. Zee has about 200,000. Pot was about $100,000 on the turn . The guy goes all-in for $300,000. Zee had to call about $200,000 off and risk his entire tourney. He goes into the time bank. He freaking calls $200,000 off with A Q . Ace high. Unreal. One of the biggest calls I think I've ever seen someone make. Gus Hansen might have made bigger calls that I just can't remember now but that is a seriously huge call. He takes the pot down with ace high. You should have seen the observer chat. They were going nuts. My question is. What is Zee doing in these timeouts? Does he have some kind of chip calculator where is computing how often he needs to be right to make it correct ? Or is he just thinking about the guy's past history. Crazy movie and I just might watch it again. Damn, makes me want to play some more tourneys again.

What is Zee doing in these timeouts?
he has Trizt Stars program, but he tweaked it a bit. instead of the flop cards been revealed, he sees his opponents hands.anyways, the way i look at tournaments is very simple. It's really what you read almost everywhere. play tight early to get that tight image (hopefully you don't switch tables)..once it nears the bubble, start getting more aggressive, especially against the shorter stacks. take some risks against them if they are to your right (short stacks). Zee justins call with Q6 when a short stack went all in was probably for a few reasons. If he doubles him up..big deal, he is to his left, and you prefer the bigger stacks to your left. you want to set yourself up with great position (larger stacks to your left, smaller stacks to your right). if you have a chance to Isolate a small stack to your left when he goes all in...even with a decent hand like J10s or similar..go ahead and call if it dosent hurt you. if you win, good for you..if you lose, you atleast doubled him up and didn't let the players to your left get his chips. do this only if you are in late position and are certain the players behind you to act wont call.position is the key to gaining chips in poker. the chips flow in a clock type motion. the middle stages of the tournament I think is the most crucial part of the tournament. Most of the actually playing gets done there. You see some flops and you can actually makes move. this is when "reads" become the most important (since you go beyond PF). you don't really want to get into it with big stacks, unless you have a good hand...or you have position and you can outplay them. this if my favorite stage of the tournament (middle).towards the last stages of the tournament, it's pretty much where math comes in the most IMO. you have to calculate a lot of PF %'s, and try to steal a lot of blinds. make you have a decent hand and don't try to steal with crap, because even when a small stack comes over the top, and you have the odds to call with a decent chance. you will mostly see all in-s and hardly any flop action...so not much strategy there.i'm pretty sure to become a successful online tournament player, it dosent take much, but if you want to become a top online tournament player like Zee justin or Gigabet, well then, I have no idea how to get there. those guys are just MONSTERS, and i wish I could somehow get all of their knowledge in online tournaments. I've read some of Gigabets stuff on a few forums, and it is just mind blowing. .. like smash always says, "tournaments are for donks". I don't really know what to say since I've always been a horrible poker "tutor" or when it comes to explaining myself about my views in poker. ehhhh

Well, why someone would distribute that video over Bittorrent is beyond me. REally bad way to distribute a video. It's only 154 mb. They should of just put it on Rapidshare in 2 parts. The tracker kicked me off so I'm not seeding it anymore. That video makes me want to play tourneys again. I'm sure that is what it was designed to do.
