Did I just hear Lon give a detailed & logical strategy analysis???

Or is there an announcer in the booth that sounds eerily similar to Lon?

Gotta root for a Smith Busquet matchup. 2nd and 3rd place finishers from last year and BEASTS!

kane kalas sounds a bit like lon in the booth

Yes very similar voices. Can be difficult to differentiate the two at times.

So Ryan Fee KOd Mercier while wearing a 'bad reg' t-shirt, anyone have the HH or a quick recap of his bluff with 63?

I was nearby after he busted against Carrel. He did so with a smile and told his rail that beating Mercier basically made his World Series. He had it a higher pedestal than even winning the event.

I just don't see any way he could/should fold this.

Olivier's got this . If he happens to win I don't want this taken as a spoiler because it isn't.

+1 on not being able to distinguish between kenny and lon. I had to do a double take thinking Lon was explaining advanced poker strategy.

I was about to correct you and mention the PCA but yeah the PCA was a flat 2 million and that was 9 years ago

I think Elky kind of needed this, He hasn't done much for the last 3 years in live tournaments.

Me and a friend have side bets since day 1 finished, Coincidentally I have Charlie Carrel and he has A Mateos should be a good sweat.


It seems to be just Previous Bracelet Winners winning bracelets this year which is kinda crazy

Upeshka De Silva Wins WSOP Event #3: $3,000 No-Limit Hold'em Shootout for $229,923 and His Second Bracelet


Doug Polk tells Melissa what its like to win his third bracelet and over 3.6 million dollars.

Jesse Martin defeated a field of 225 entries to take down the inaugural $2,500 Mixed Triple Draw Lowball event, and in doing so, won his second bracelet

Abe Mosseri, the New York native emerged as the latest member of the two-time bracelet winners club

David Bach The 2009 $50,000 World Championship H.O.R.S.E. winner collected his second-career bracelet by winning Event #11: $1,500 Dealers Choice 6-Handed for $119,399.

David 'Dragon' Pham Captures Third Bracelet in Event #12: $1,500 No-Limit Hold'em

$1,500 No-Limit 2-7 Lowball Draw: Frank Kassela Wins Third WSOP Bracelet

10 years of 60+ bracelet events per year has to make a lot of multiple winners

Mercier having a bad series so far imo. Bricked both high rollers and getting KOed a lot lol.

Wasn't he player of the year last year?

that was freaky eh? Who is Kenny (Tran)?

he was but he did well in mostly mixed so he didn't cash for millions or anything. Mostly small wins, maybe he did well in the bracelet bets tho idk.

We have our 1st increased field from last year. The $1,500 NL 6 handed event got 1,748 entries. Only 1,477 last year

I think the Millionaire Maker will have an increased field too. I suspect a lot of people have realised a single MM bullet provides a lot more excitement that 3 in the Colossus

According to Hendonmob, Mercier has ~$900K in NLHE mtt cashes so far this year. So I guess that just adds to his mixed game success.

But how much did he lose ?

I always hate seeing how much MTT cashes they have. It would be awesome if they showed how much PROFIT they made including all buy ins.

F that. How much did they actually profit themselves, after taking into account pieces sold etc.

Let's also see the pieces they took of other players and include that. Maybe investments in Crypto currency? How much profit did they make on the house they just flipped? I want details of their business!

No. That would be silly.

favorite color and favorite animal too please

How silly would it be to start talking about cash game players in terms of $ in pots won.
He has won $3 Million in pots won, oh yea and he lost $4 Million in pots not won.
