Re: $1,000,000 The Big One for ONEDROP, (FAQ in First Post)

Just watched the final table on TV on Sat. Ive been saying this for years...Antonio is the BIGGEST luck box on ****ing earth. He just outcards everyone, everytime...its unreal. Im not hating...Esfandiari has some poker chops, but he never loses regardless of the odds. 3 to 1, 2 to 1, coinflips, draws. He just spikes and scoops pots. Nice life sir. /rant.

The hands were playing soooo slow. Like 10min per hand? I know its the "Big one" but even in the high stakes, million dollar cash games they dont take that long. lol! Boring as hell.

Uhh, have you watched him on high stakes? He is far from a luck box, he's had many bad beats.
This event I agree though he was very lucky.

He's taken a lot of bad beats in big pots. It might just be harder to remember because he doesn't dance around like phil hellmuth saying how unlucky he is.

He was dealt KK vs AA one time at the final table (as I recall) and that sure is one of the toughest beats in poker. Impossible to get away. Always thought Antonio was one of the best and he owns Hellmuth/Laak and a few more for as long as I can remember. Owning of great players over time takes talent.

Apart from the fact that this video is pretty bad (what kind of nits does this guy play with??), it's obviously about cash games..

Wasn't Antonio on BTN and mercier in SB that hand?
Either way, it coulda been utg vs utg+1 theres no way he's folding KK to a 6-bet there

You don't consider taking something from someone else at gunpoint theft?

Actually no, that would be robbery.
