Let's keep posts in this thread spoiler free in the manner that we don't post anything that has not yet happened on live stream

Thanks!

Any cash games this year?

Awesome. The series from last year provided lots of interesting hands. TY.

TBD but in case you didn't know they have cash game series that aired on triton's youtube channel from the previous series that you might've missed

Is this the first time that the online legend Robert Gulkines Flink is playing live on tv?

I play PLO so I'm used to silly equities but man, shortdeck hold'em is pretty whack lol

Just reviewing the late 2000's threads I'm guessing Flink was martonas? Fulltilt streets were harder than eurosites I guess. Many people fell to the game of the Dang brothers, no surprise on that.

I think Martonas lost his br to durrrr not Dangs

Flink is bajskovren87 afaik

WTF David Benefield just sat at the feature table

Event 2, 500K HKD Short deck ante only now running. Trueteller currently mashing it in (and rebuying at this moment) on the feature table

I wonder how solveable shorthand holdem is

Well TT just jammed 68o preflop for 20 antes so who knows. yolo

Re-entry period brings out the maniac play attempting to build a big stack.

Thanks dude.

Just a quick pop-in to thank Randy and Lex for their commentating. The streams are fun and interesting and the commentators are a significant part of the pleasant viewing experience.

Seems like "3Way ZJ" (Bonomo's nickname he came up with for himself due to his poly-amorous lifestyle) ships all the high rollers over the last couple years...

Badziakouski just got 1-outed for the chiplead 7 handed



edit: and now out 88 vs Koons KK next hand

I'm surprised for the lack of discussion here. The production is amazing, all top pros playing, Chinese like to play crazy, good commentary, nice table talk. Basically all the ingredients for great TV poker.

Tune in guys!

I love the fact that they stream such great production quality. FOR FREE. you can't ask for better content TBH. sad how they're not getting the views they deserve.

I've been really surprised at this as well. It's the best tournament poker available for viewing, for free, on twitch, and they get a few thousand viewers AT MOST. Pretty weird

I’d watch the nl and plo events, but even with stacked lineups , watching shortdeck is very boring to me

I’ve watched a little bit, including the last couple hands of the tournament but honestly don’t care too much. It’s not their fault, they do a pretty good job with everything.

Let’s see if the numbers increase for the bigger events later in the series.

Poker is boring to watch, when you can play. The boom has pass
