2/19 High Stakes Railbirding thread (Ivey crushes seda1 again, Hot O8 action)

[Poker monkey]

Seda is "silk" in Spanish. So there's a good chance it's the guy who runs Telmex, worth $50bn approx. (or $49.9995 bn now)

poker monkey,

seda is a spanish word; so it's most likely Carlos Slim. That makes sense.

phil gordon makes me jealous

[Futtocked]

jay z seems to make sense esp. after the rumors floating around that he lost 500k in lv high stakes game. playing online under an 'anonymous' name he can lose as much of the 500 mil or so hes worth without anyone knowing

[Oracle1]

boy there are thousands of people who can lose that amount of money w/o caring. could be any russian business man... could simply be anybody will never find out.

[Muppetman]

if u watched the game there is no way that seda1 was a celebrity or athlete or just a random rich guy. I have seen him play ivey a couple times and hes not that bad and if it was Jayz for example im pretty sure he awould be horrible at HU NLHE online

[Possum2007]

Yeah, it's really up in the air. But let's throw this out there:


Michael Jordan or Charles Barkley.


Both have been known to play, and lose, millions in a single sitting. And since Phil is a famous LV balla, he would easily have the opportunity to meet these guys and strike up a friendship.

Just a thought.


FWIW, I can't imagine how that was a pro player. Just can't.

wouldnt it be funny if seda1 ended up being patrick antonius
