That seems to be be 6/14 rather than 6/16...and ironically, it wouldnt load, so i couldnt double check the difference in the hands/episode ������

I'm sure I've seen every episode from that year, but can you tell me if the 2002 ME is just coverage of the final table, or does it go from day 1?

Just went through that episode (got it in my PC). It is pretty much just a compilation of Negreanu hands, vast majority of which you can find scattered on youtube.

And Moneymaker busts with top pair vs a set.

All I could ever find was two episodes covering the final table I got the impression that was the whole coverage - prior years tend to be one episode only.

I did the same starting from the seventies but I stopped around 2010 when they started to get a daunting number of episodes per year.

It was a private corporation, so did it need to?

Sure $5,000 is still a lot of money but it has been $10,000 for years. And correct me if I'm wrong but it seemed like this was a $10,000 event that got tons of players. I'm not understanding why they cut the buy-in by half.

If anyone could tell me I'd appreciate it thx.

It was $5,000 (+$300) last year.

Because main event numbers were dropping. They got an increase last year but a decrease this year, so I dunno how successful it's been, I'd have to look at the other events to see if more people are playing them than two years ago.

So far this year, (2017), the Poker Tables in Las Vegas have been remarkably soft and juicy.

Even a lifelong struggling Poker Pro like TheTrooper97 is having a good year, so far

Not to be used incessantly, but are gimmick account bots allowed?

Assuming I have trained a network on say, 50k 2+2 posts from a particular user, can said bot read the forums and decide to post to post occasionally?

I think it would be interesting, but understand if such things would be against the site rules.

Thank you for your replies in advance, we have a situation that we need an opinion on from all of you gambling degens

4 guys went to a restaurant to watch the big fight. 3 guys in this situation were in on the bet. One guy in the situation wasn't in on the bet.

While sitting down 1 guy put an amount of money on the table for saying that Mcgregor would win. (not saying amount of money) although the other 2 people in on the bet did not put the money down on the table, nor did they shake on the bet. The other two people in on the bet were 'supposedly' rooting for Mayweather. Since no one else put their money on the table, other then the guy rooting for Mcgregor, "assuming that no one else was in on the bet" the person rooting for Mcgregor took his money back and put it in his pocket. Once again, no hands were shaken in this 'bet'. So Mayweather ended up winning via TKO, and then suddenly the other guys in the situation started asking for their money. Although the guy rooting for Mcgregors argument is, no hands were shaken in the deal, nor was any money put down. Also the person rooting for Mcgregor said that he does not remember anyone verbally saying that they would bet the amount of money put on the table originally if Mcgregor Won. The other guys say that they put the money down, but the first guy disagrees.

Person 1 says he was the only one to put money down on the table. He specifically put his money back in his pocket because no one else put money on the table when he asked. (others disagree)

The two other people say they put money on the table, but they don't remember the exact amount. For example. Person two says that he and the other person but exactly down 15 dollars. ( not actual amount ) Person three says he and the other may-weather supporter put down 25 dollars. So the two mayweather supporters are saying two different things on the amount of money that was put down.

Also one of the mayweather supporter said he put money on the table but instead paid it for bills.

There were no verbal agreements and handshakes. Though the mayweather winners said they had verbal agreements, the mcgregor supporter said there was no verbal agreements.

Everyone in on the bet are family members, not just random people.

Who do you guys think is right/wrong?




Thanks,

I think they're all dingdongs and I have no idea why you'd post this here. But, it sounds like the Mayweather guys are being fairweather guys. They get nothing. They lose. Good day, sir.

How can anyone answer this without knowing what was said? Putting a random amount of money down on a table without a verbal agreement of what it is in relation to means less than nothing. Not sure what you are looking for here.

If they agreed a bet with odds and booked it verbally its obviously binding. Anything less isn't.

None of them appear to know the amount bet. In any biding contact consideration must be known. The whole situation is a cluster **** and no one should be bound to pay a penny.

And why not provided the real amounts? It could be so small that no one cares.

One further thought, it seems that the Mayweather supporters may have been up to some freerolling tactics.

I don't mind your post being in this NVG thread but your question is probably better suited for the sports betting forum:
