Just off the top of my head

Ray Reardon won at the age of 46, he is the oldest winner.

Joe Davis won his last WC at the age of 45, he won 15 in total, all of them consecutive. It probably would have been more, but they didn't play the WC for 5 years because of WW2, his last win was in 1946.

Walter Donaldson, Fred Davis, John Pulman, John Spencer and Horace Lindrum all won when they were over 40.

Fred and Joe Davis were brothers, between them they won the WC 23 times.

Dunno any of these guys, but that mustve been ages ago. Surely the game got tougher since then. I think before O'Sullivan noone even tried long potters ever.
Selby totally off his game

Yes, Ray Reardon was the last above 40 to win, that was in 1978. It's a young mans game now. Stephen Hendry was 21 when he won his first WC (7 in total), he retired at 42.

Even if he's behind 4-9 now, I still think Selby's gonna win this. They play best of 35 frames.

Maybe you're right on that, Higgins killing it ATM though

They have played the WC 82 times. The top 6 players has 50 wins between them.

Yes, but the odds on Selby is 4.35 now, so Sammy is betting some money on him.

Yes, had bet over 214.5, so that was an easy win.

Bet it all on over 186.5 in Jazz - Clippers, so that's not looking good right now.
04-30-2017 , 05:35 PM
3 frames in a row for Selby

Still a pretty good shot. High scoring 3rd.

In the bag now Sammy.

The ACR million is $23k in the black with 2 hours of late reg left. That means they'll probably do it again next month, which is sweet--assuming they didn't lose too much on the late satellites. All the ones I played made their money.

Can you get Winning Poker Network in HK?

Also assuming they didn't bankrupt half their potential returning players through multiple reentries. But if that's true, they won't find that out until they have an overlay the next time.

MTT_9797 kicked me out of the 0.01/0.02 game for running up too big a bankroll

We can play 0.01/0.01 heads up at California Pizza Kitchen

My local CPK runs a 1/1/2 game like a real California restaurant. Also in California fashion the drop is $8 preflop

No Nat monthly roundup? I am disappoint. Going on strike early in solidarity? Hope you don't have to, but if it happens be sure to link us to your Twitch streams when you're not on the picket line!
