Don't know if he was serious but Ivey just said he wasn't going to play a single WSOP event this year.

Chip counts:

lol @ Negreanu constant swearing with all mics pointed at him

anyway, pretty sick feature table, will have fun watching

e: btw, any idea who this Badziakouski guy is? Im assuming one of the Belarussian online crushers (Katya?), as he has 2k in total live cashes so far and he shows up to a 100k tournament

Thanks for the heads up . Now I have something to watch this morning k

Crazy field. Like 7 more entries this morning? Pretty incredible!

Aw crap have to work today. Anyone know if they usually post a replay of this later on?

No. They said they aren't even recording.

Fish2013 i think it is

they said they aren't recording HOLE CARDS, because there's no need for it (only ft will have highlights). Replay of the stream will be avalible, as always.

@up thanks, all the best luck for him

That's one fine dealer though

zinno jus waxed a €100k buy in there with the old 62o vs set 10s on a 10 hi flop

ooops

I'm not gay or anything but sammartino is a fiiine looking man

How did fedor get all his chips? Last I tuned in he was grinding a 400k stack

He made the backdoor 2nd nut flush on the river and Scott Seiver bet his 2 pair into him.

He opted to only call to win this small pot.

Other players kind of made fun of that play ("scared money"...)

He then played and raised almost every hand and won like 90 % of hands from then on whithout showdown.

He lost a flip against George Danzer AIPF though.

who are Isaac and Rono Lo? trust fund kids?

Rono lo is an absurdly rich businessman with triad connections. close though

I want Ole Schemion's hoodie

Sick slowroll

really sick..

he pretty much taunted ole when he waved his hand in his face.

I tuned in right at the end of it. Do you have the HH? All I got was full house was slow to call.

Wtf not sure if that was a huge nitroll or a slowroll.

If I was in Ole's place I'd probably be furious right now.

Not sure ?
It was an atrocious slowroll by this italian son of a b*tch.
He even waved his hands in front of Ole trying to get a reaction.
Utterly Disgusting.

why would he slowroll if ole was essentially going to be eliminated after the hand? yes, he had a few chips left (less than a big blind i think), but its not like he would have been left with a decent stack and would be liable to go on tilt and spew his chips off. obviously a slowroll is extremely effed up in any case, but i could understand it more if ole would have had a stack left and would now be on mega tilt and begin to play wildly. but slowrolling a guy when hes (effectively) all in and heading to the rail after showdown just doesnt make sense to me.

he acted like he had a legitmate decision and even after the hand didnt seem to gloat or anything. but if the guy is playing a $100k SHR then hes clearly not some random fish and would obviously undesrstand that jacks full on that board is the nuts and thus theres no reason for tanking.

so confusing to me. is there bad blood between him and ole? do they play cash games together regularly? what the hell is the point is tanking and slowrolling there? ...or is he just a giant effing nit and actually considered that ole could have queens full or even quad sevens and thus was leaning toward a fold? such a baffling hand. i know ole is a 20 something year old millionaire poker genius, but hes gonna be a sad panda and on mega life tilt for quite awhile after that one.

for those that missed it:

blinds were 12k/24k/3k and sammartino was the button. ole was in the BB and started the hand with 1,868,000 and had sammartino covered by just 26k. folded to sammartino who raised to 55k, sb folded, ole 3bet to 185k, sammartino called. flop comes Q7J and ole bets 180k. sammartino calls. turn comes 7 and ole bets 382k with sammartino calling again. river is the 4 for a final board of Q7J74 ...ole tanks for 30 seconds or so and shoves for 1.1 million. sammartino hems and haws, looks super pained, flashes his hand in front of ole's face to get a reaction, tanks more, looks like he wants to jump off a cliff, and finally sighs and plops in a call. ole slams down AA and clearly thinks he has it won, until sammartino sheepishly turns over....JJ ....WHAT

+1

saying he was nitrolling is equal to saying he's a fish. saying it was a slowroll is equal to saying he is an *******, and that is what he is.
