Why not just get it from wsop.com? In Canada I am pretty sure that's the best source...

You guys keep forgetting Bryan Colin. He is a great player, tremendously nice person, great personality, and a 2+2er (humpybfly). On the ESPN2 coverage, Hellmouth calls him one of the nicest guys in poker, and says he hangs out with him all the time in NYC, so there's that too

Off to get beers now, how many am I likely to need? I'm hoping a 12 pack of cans (440ml) will be enough, I'm such a lightweight these days. Or am I being hopelessly optimistic?

I'll try that today.

I was just reading about Ellen Deeb who played this year in the ME and is 91. Since I'll be 65 this year, I was thinking I was running out of time to play in the ME but maybe not. The long days start to be a problem as we age but I had no problem going 12 hrs in a Venetian deepstack last week and have done it several days in a row so I guess there's still hope. Nice to see a few older folks still in the running.

He didn't reraise Palacios's open which opened the door up for Elder to 3 bet with 99 and when Elder continued on an A-Q-10 flop Cunningham let it go.

He also didn't reraise Bellande's open when he had 10-10 and folded to a turn bet (Bellande also bet the flop) with just a Q for an overcard (Bellande had J-3 and had turned a flush draw). Didn't like that laydown at all given the frequency with which Bellande was bluffing.

Claudia Crawford is the girl who said she's going to bring a bunch of people to the final table to yell Roll Tide every time she wins a hand. Hopefully we will be spared that.

I also think he can be compared to Hellmuth in that although his style of tourney play may not be "correct" compared to the present standard, he will stick to it loyally and consistently and therfore may come off as playing poorly.

Interestingly enough, 7 or 8 years ago his play seemed strange because he was ahead of his time and playing at a much higher level than most of his opponents.
7 or 8 years ago ahead of his time, or doing well against Gold years ago doesn't mean much. Tournament poker has changed so much over the years.

Eg. before 2000 people played for a pair of aces only, late 90s pros like Lederer and Gordon played loose from late position and tight from early position, a concept unknown to the rest of the field who didn't care much who played first or last preflop, they just assumed it was random, nobody realised it could give you an advantage.
Around 2000 Greenstein etc. continuation bet after the flop, revolutionary as at the time you'd check if you had nothing and bet if you had something. Checking if you had something on the flop was considered expert play, but betting when you missed the flop was something nobody had considered yet.
Then 2003-2005 people started understanding M values and that you played differently with 10-20bb or 20-30bb, earlier people would still set mine with 15bb.
Then you had the scandi years 2006-2008, with mindless aggression where everyone just folded whenever an aggressive shove made no sense. Nowadays it's range based poker, where you can't just randomly shove a backdoor flush as a scandinavian, smart opponents would figure those are only 15% of the range you'd play on the flop, and call down your bluffs.

So Cunningham crushing around 2004 before the aggro scandinavians doesn't mean much, anyone that thoroughly read harrington would be up to that level at least.
