Oh dear, Andy lost a huge hand with Daniel Negreanu, he had AK but ran into Kings and didn't catch an Ace and is now 5th of 6 players with just 173,000 chips, Negreanu is first with 1,500,000 chips.

Interesting hand, he played it very aggressively, but that's his style anyway. Did he have to get the money in pre-flop with AK? Negreanu is never calling with a hand that Andy is ahead of.

Fifth for 100K is great and all, but you just cant shake the feeling that he could have done much better.

Hitchhiker's Guide to...

if he'd read the thread on the main poker page which advised folding AK just off the bubble in the 100k tournament on tribeca, he might be a richer man this morning (only kidding btw)

Got to feel for Kid Poker....

For the fourth time since they have been heads-up, Daniel Negreanu has raised preflop with pocket aces. Everytime, Mike Sexton has mucked preflop.

....Andy not playing the $1500 Event?

ditto maybe this plays ok with three players left but with seven and against the only player that can really hurt him it's dodgy

He did, - out in 93rd place.

WSOP Running total up $98,500 for 2 events played. vn.

WH BONNEY

If Andy finished in joint 93rd, which he did, he will cash. The first 262 players are getting paid out of a total entry of 2276. So its 100k + and rising.

For those of you going to the WSOP I note that this event was a sell out.
The entry was capped at 2276, so get in early to avoid disappointment.

"Tue Jun 27 23:44:00 PDT 2006
Hellmuth Loses a Big One
Hellmuth raises to $2,700 on the button. Mike LaBonte calls from the small blind. The flop comes down AK6. LaBonte checks and Hellmuth bets $2,000 and LaBonte raises to $6,000. Hellmuth makes the call. The turn brings a J. LaBonte bets $3,000 and Hellmuth calls. The river is a 7. LaBonte bets $4,000 and Hellmuth calls. LaBonte turns over K-J for two pair and Hellmuth shows an Ace as he mucks his hand in disgust and says "How can he check-raise me there? This guy's probably played 7 hours of poker in his life" Without missing a beat LaBonte responds with "5 hours," which gave the table quite a laugh. Hellmuth is now at $25,000 and LaBonte is sitting near $35,000. "

Lol. What a legend.

Correction:
Andy did not now finish in joint 93rd position.
Cardplayer are now showing him as not finishing in the money.
Not sure whats going on. I personally think their new live tourney blog is terrible compared to the previous one.
