man i wish this thing kept going (PAD/big game/HSP etc). Why did black friday had to happen :<

Eli kind of sucks

how is he not broke yet

he's so clearly tilted. don't see pros get that way too often.

eli is a millionaire, i dont think he is a big loser, but a loser over time for sure "mil here, mil there, i got you"

lolwut

the one hand where he got stacked was bad luck

and folding the river to viffer who had been playing tight, even opie thought eli was beat

e z game when u see the cards

I think he is also a successful businessman...probably generally a loser but makes money doing other stuff besides poker.

Eli is not a full time pro

he has a number of very successful business aside from poker where he makes millions every year. Thats why he is always around

Eli is a successful business man

its hard to say if he wins or lose at poker obviously he's the underdog vs world class lineup like this but overall I dont think ppl are happy to see him at the tables

NLHE is also not Eli's best game.

I remember hearing somewhere, might have been Eli's high stakes living episode, that he was one of the first people in the 24-hour photo biz or was instrumental in getting the 24-hour photo biz started. Not sure to what extent though. If he was part of a group/company that started the technology or whatever he prob has mad dough.

He was first in Vegas to have the hour development photo business but thats all I know.

As anyone who's watched him on televised cash games knows, he's not necessarily the strongest NLHE player out there, and he's gotten beaten up pretty badly on FTP's PLO games, but he's also been a big winner on that site in HORSE. Though a small sample size, this is consistent with what Barry wrote about him on his site in his Player Analysis, where he said that he is great at short-handed limit mixed games but weaker when it gets full-ring and/or at No Limit/PL games.

I don't know how he can be a winner at NLHE when he always calls raises and limp/folds with garbage like 92

He also always calls c-bets with bottom pair and A-high then just folds on the turn...

are they still showing episodes?
