See you're a level 2, where as I'm on Level 4.
I don't suppose you'll be able to figure this out either though.

See now that's a little closer to the explanation I was looking for.

Of course I know Barry Greenstein signs his book to whoever knocks him out of a tourney. Geeez.

Hand #38 - Tommy Le has the button in seat 5, Tom Dwan raises under the gun to 105,000, Bryan Devonshire calls from late position, Cory Carroll reraises from the small blind to 505,000, Dwan folds, Devonshire moves all in, and Carroll calls with AA. Devonshire shows AA, and it's a nearly certain chop situation. Dwan says he folded pocket tens.

The board comes J1028J, and Cory Carroll and Bryan Devonshire chop the pot.

Durrrr and vahedi going at it.

Hand #39 - Cory Carroll has the button in seat 6, Amir Vahedi raises from early position to 110,000, and Tom Dwan calls from the big blind. The flop comes AJ5, Dwan checks, Vahedi bets 260,000, and Dwan calls. The turn card is the 10, Dwan checks, Vahedi bets 375,000, and Dwan calls. The river card is the 3, and both players check.

Dwan shows KQ for an ace-high straight, and Vahedi shows one card -- the A -- before he mucks. Tom Dwan wins the pot, building his stack to about 4.1 million, while Amir Vahedi drops down to about 3.1 million.

Odd check oop from durrr?

FYP

Between hands, Amir Vahedi and Tom Dwan begin to share a friendly meal from Noodles, which was delivered from here in the Bellagio.

I am from the north of Ireland, none of my extended family and a good portion of my friends have ever at any time had a British passport. I am almost certain Andy is the same way. Also their is no seperate passport for anywhere in the UK.

Gus Hansen knocks out Nick Binger in 15th, Ad3d > AcQd when Gus rivers the flush.
Gus then knocks out David Tran in 14th, AA > Q4 on a 432 flop.

Hand #67 - David Chiu has the button in seat 2, Robert Mizrachi raises from middle position to 175,000, Gus Hansen reraises from the big blind to 1.1 million, and Mizrachi calls with KQ. Hansen shows A8, and Mizrachi needs to improve to survive.

The board comes 543A2, putting a five-high straight on the board to chop the pot.

!!!!!!
how the hell does the grinder call the 1.1 million reraise?

If this was online, I would assume misclick.
