WSOP 2014 Main Event Thread - Page 16 - Poker News

Been following the ME and didn't know he was this deep. Would be awesome if he made FT and insanely awesome if he shipped it.

Looking forward to him updating his alreasy epic LVL thread w his ME run. Hopefully he has several months to update it after, hopefully, making FT and then being able to end his thread in November as the 2014 WSOP Main Event champion. Only downside would be the wait in between updates. Would obviously go down as greatest 2+2 thread everrrr.

Those pics don't do this Aoki girl justice, she's super cute. She made one of the sickest bluffs ever HU for the ladies' bracelet, that is if either player had half a clue what they were doing. But I think she just might have at least half a clue. She could actually could be some wunderkind savant.

No offense to Maria Ho, I do like her. But the fact that she's headlining the featured table on day 4 should tell you just how screwed this year's broadcast is.

It's standard. What other well known pros/personalities are left? I mean when the tourney begins they usually get a Negraneau, Hellmuth or Ivey and as the well known people get knocked out, they have to keep reaching down until they get to the bottom of the barrel, which usually ends up being some random 20-something with a giant stack.

Pretty sure when you sign up to play ME you sign a piece of paper that says ESPN can film and access your cards whenever they want.

Sounds like they're going to have to go down to a guy who final-tabled a WSOP Circuit event in 2005 to put up as the established pro for the TV broadcast. What a bad beat for ESPN.

Still plenty of pros left to rail. Chris Lee, mark herm, R E Porter, Isaac Baron, Townsend...

Those are the known pros? I only know of Townsend, and even he is pretty unknown outside of online poker.

There are still plenty of ladies to make the main event FT. That would be a story imo.

Yep was gonna say the same thing.. looking down the list there's the potential for the toughest final table ever if anything. Michael Finstein's been a Bellagio 10/20 cash reg for years, Zach Jiganti is 'Scansion' on 2p2 with his blog thread. Martin Jacobsen is a highstakes Swedish pro, there's Matthew Waxman, Leif Force I believe almost final tabled ME around 7 years ago, even that girl still in came second in the Ladies event.
