30min delay prevents immediate knowledge, but yes they will find out.

into2ndwind busted with a 40k payout, he had a set. :/

30min delay doesnt matter here so much...

GOGO FRINX! take it down

I really like listening to busquet in the booth... then they go on break and come back with hellmuth. pretty tilting.

lol hellmuth complementing frinkx's play with that AT vs JJ.

he was dodging bullets baby

kiwi busted AK vs QQ

only frinkx remaining

Hellmuth doesn't like this new-fangled 'mathematics' stuff does he.

Yeah that Busquet guy was the best poker announcer I have ever watched on television. With the broadcast style where they actually show simple cbet takedowns as well as bigger hands, combined with the good announcer, this was easily the best poker I have ever watched on tv.

Ruthenberg Makes the Right Call


Even McNiff opened for 42,000 from the button, and Sebastian Ruthenberg called from the big blind. The flop came Js/9d/9s. Rutheberg led with a bet of 50,000, and McNiff called. The turn was the 2h and Ruthenberg bet again, this time 86,000. McNiff called once more.

The river brought the Kh and a check from Ruthenberg. McNiff paused, then pushed out a bet of 192,000. Ruthenberg went deep into the tank, thinking for at least a couple of minutes.

Finally he set out a stack of calling chips, and tabled his 5s/5c. He'd made the correct decision, as McNiff mucked.

Ruthenberg sits with 2.869 million now, while McNiff slips to 1.197 million.

He's really good, but having him commenting is terrible for the poker world, it was like a an educational video when he was assessing the play in ranges w/o hole cards and criticizing bad play and telling everyone what range of hands it's good to do what with

^ agreed horrible for poker, also that table is bad for frinkx has 2 ppl with shortish stacks and 2 ppl a tad less than him as well, so later on in the day (if it gets to that) they will be shipping/reshipping more frequently

Any table w/ Bellande can't be that bad

was really cool watching evan on TV today. i think he has a really good table demeanor/presence I thought he played great personally.

Joseph Cheung and Jean-Robert Bellande are still in, too . I always feel bad for Bellande because he always gets the sickest beats in a deep run.
