yeah I was going well and had a decent stack for most of the first day, then an average stack in level 7 or level 8 and got caught in a sick bluff. nowhere near the money, 130th or so.

eagle eye

I see Marty Smyth is still in and going very well(6th in chips) with 20 left.

Tom Hanlon is still in the mix but below average, gwan Kinder!!

He's just so sick going back year after year, then spending 11 months working just to pay it off. Guy needs help.

Imagine being stalked by a cameraperson/people for your whole life. They just videotape and take pictures of everything you do in the hope to find something to further besmirch and destroy your reputation just so you come across as an untrustworthy and poor individual on a wesite forum.
Thats whats been happening to me. Literally.

Just stop carrying that bin around with you. They'll soon lose interest.

Phil Hellmuth chip leader in $1500 H.O.R.S.E event with 21 left. Hope he cracks a bracelet out of a non-hold'em event so that he can say he's not only the greatest hold'em player in the world, but also the greatest all around player :eek:

I do hope he wins it though...good for the game IMO.

Of course they are. He has made some other non hold'em final tables including a 2nd place in PL Omaha a few years back. He was beaten by Scotty Nguyen h.u - the new $50k HORSE winner.

I was joking with the fact that his idea of another varient of poker would be a switch to limit. I made sure to put in NL for this, don't mind richie he gets excited when he can use a new pic. He may be the greatestHE tourney player, but one horse braclet won't shoot him to the top of the all-rounder list.

That said it was only a joke, and before somebody list them off he has made about 10 final tables in non hold'em (all forms of HE :P) events
And was 2nd twice. He played a much bigger variety in the past and slowly bemome more HE orientated.

I think it wasn't PLO, afaik anyway, it was 8 or better. His other 2nd plae in non HE was Deuce to Seven draw way back

Joe 'The Elegance' Beevers, 01/07/2008

This year at the WSOP there are 55 bracelet events running from 30th May to the 16th July (if you don't count the delayed final table). You would think that would be enough, it is certainly more than it used to be and I have hand picked about 7 events to play in total. When you look at people like Barry Greenstein however perhaps it isn't. He was is the final of the $50,000 HORSE event the other day with a first prize of nearly two million dollars but he was still up early enough on final day to take a shot in the $10,000 Pot Limit Omaha that started at noon two hours before the final. Once out of the PLO and eliminated in 8th place in the HORSE he then went straight into the $1500 HORSE event that started at 5pm on the same day. Sick?
