I think Arden punted off vs Lex and got a better hand to fold.

weird river play with effective stack of 62k to bet 18k and fold to the shove with an overpair

Yeah with a flush draw out there and a bunch of straight draws, you have to make the call, especially vs a player who has barely even played before.

It's easy when you aren't in the hand though.

Has he seen Arden Cho play before? Shes just a button clicker, no idea what shes doing. Folding an overpair to someone like her is just straight up bad.

Lex's river jam with A4 on T75 3 6 after Keating's overbet was at least as bad imo.

Honest question, how rich is Keating? Dude plays this format like it's Zynga poker or something. Absolutely zero ****s given, such a vibe. If you remove him from the lineup, it's nutpeddling. Tilly stands out as a positive too, talkative and active.

Putting Phil in the nutpeddler category is highly offensive to nutpeddlers everywhere. There needs to be a new category for what Phil's doing now.

My take is that he certainly doesn't care about these stakes. He might just see it as pure advertising and then plays a more reasonable style vs. mega whales and for much higher stakes. Or maybe the games are so good, he doesn't even need to tighten up much there either. Could also just be insanely wealthy independently too. He seems to have great instincts when he wants to play, but often he's just screwing around.

In the hcl stream which played maybe 15-20x bigger he was playing a bit more seriously but still splashing around, i’d say he was playing his B game, on the Big game i’d say he’s playing his F game as in don’t give a F game.

Keating was bored as **** at the Big Game and its comparatively low stakes. he even left early! seemingly shortly after the loose cannon revealed she is married

Apparently the LC finished 18th in one of the WSOP events this year.

Yeah, the controversial “ Casino Employee” event.

Nicole “Nikki Limo” Greene’s Hendonmob.

Vanessa “Mamacita” Alvarez also made the final two tables, busting 16th. I guess in 2024 if you identify as a casino employee, everyone just has to respect that and go with it.
