Selling %s in the 50k HORSE - Page 4 - Poker Beats Brags and Variance

Great job, bro. ill comeback early, and great finish to the day. Now we can probably get some actual hand reports on day 3, rather than me just refreshing the chip counts every 5 minutes.

this.

I'm jealous I didn't check my email in time to send a stake

how does it work though if he wins big ? don't the casinos take 30% right away for taxes ?

knocked out steve z. was an actual story about it too:

Steve Zolotow Eliminated

Hold'em:

Steve Zolotow put in a raise from middle position, Joseph Michael three-bet from the small blind, Zolotow four-bet all in and Michael made the call.

Zolotow {7-Hearts} {9-Hearts}

Michael {J-Spades} {J-Hearts}

The board ran out {9-Spades} {2-Diamonds} {2-Clubs} {8-Diamonds} {K-Diamonds}. Zolotow could not improve and he was eliminated.
