Not the 2nd nuts, the board was paired and there was 2 straight flush draws. All unlikely though. Hellmuth was thinking about raising, so I don't think it qualifies as a slow roll.

18 left in the $10K PLHE. ITM now.

And, of course, PokerNews writes, "The remaining twenty-eight players are now guaranteed at least $23,876 for their troubles."

Dudes. There are 18 players left. 18. Eighteen.

Re: ***OFFICIAL WSOP SWEAT THREAD***

I don't know. They just did the table re-draw. Probably finish the level they're playing now and then quit. Not sure.

Edit: they are finished now with 17 left. (Elky gone in 18th.)

I'd never have guessed there was as many as 57 players with 3 or more bracelets.

He still didn't make a big score, but he has 4 cashes in 8 events played.

I think in #14, 15 and 17.

But I feel like he is playing more events too. He is often playing two tournaments at the same time.

In event #16 he pushed blind 6 times in a row, won 5 races and stole blinds once, and went back to event #15 after more than quadrupling his stack in a couple of minutes.

Ivey could well be the best player in the world, but that "pushing blind and hope I get lucky, because anyway I have enough money to spend" is bull**** I think.

Totally Brad Booth'd myself last night. Less scotch, less roulette....more poker. Lesson learned.

Would you really feel that much better if I said "a few minutes"? I'm not sure how you use it in english, but "couple" in french can be used to say a "few", and we could argue that sitting during the 20 minutes break is playing a "few" minutes. The sarcasm was certainly deserved...
