*** WSOP 2017 Thread *** Half Hour Stream Delay - No Spoilers - Page 178 - Poker News

Pokergo Day 7B - about 4.5 hours in. I just watched it again last night. Fun hand. I love Blumstein's "Just another hand of poker, right?" after he calmed down a bit.

Meh - I've got two jobs and neither one gives me **** to do. I worked out pretty hard this morning so just laying around being lazy and bored now.

Also I'm a dude - that avatar is called Donkey Woman - brought back by popular demand. Except for the people who hate her - very polarizing. We think it might be Hoda Kotb.

I know. There aren't too many of us on a female-dominated site like 2p2, but we exist.

Come on, he's an amateur running over the pros, and he's having fun. How can you not be a fan?

Perhaps you should consider a different avatar....you know...one that represents yourself or poker.

I remember Nguyen. I just don't remember how or why.

Saout strikes you as arrogant? Or are you just saying that because he's French??

The great thing about Hesp is that so many people are rooting for him and, for once, it's not because they see someone who is just going to punt off the winnings in a year or so.
People genuinely like him. Pros and regular fans alike.

Helluva a call by Blumstein there. Considering the line Sinclair took. JJ,QQ,KK,AA, AK, AQ all in his range. Sick call.

Catching up on day 7 now. Hesp raised Ruane on the flop, asked Ruane if he wants to see after he folded, then shows his top pair when Ruane nodded yes. Hesp then asked Ruane if he folded better than an Ace and Ruane replied "obviously not". So glad he busted. Ruane has the personality of an 8-year old who just dropped his ice cream cone.
