    Default Allright Who ya got?? IN the Main Event? Ivey or Esfandiari

    They are down to 55 and Ivey is still in the top 5. My money is on him ot take the whole thing down. He is having a crazy WSOP. I heard a rumor that he tipped 98k to the dealers when he won that bracelet!!! I wish i has a spare 98k sitting around. Jeff Shulman is also another threat to be warrented. Maybe we I should take some bets HMMMM. What do you think?

    Antonio is okay, but unless he uses his magic to swap the real deck for one of his marked decks.. Ivey all the way
    Some days it feels like I've been standing forever, waiting for the bank teller to return so I can cash in all these Sklansky Bucks.

    esfandiari is a great player but i would also put my money on phil ivey.
    he's 3rd in chips and the field is getting more and more narrow..phil is if not the best overall poker player one of the best and fantastic in holdem so imagine what will happen when he also has a chip advantage...terryfying :P

    I don't even know who's left, but if Ivey has one chip, he has to be the favorite to win.

    Default Down to 27... Ivey still rains King 3rd in Chips.

    Esfandiari has waivered a little but still remains. My sleeper pick Jeff Shulman is sitting right next to Ivey and has a slightly smaller stack. Luckily he is on Ivey's left and not right! If Ivey final tables this tourney which he will that will be amazing bc he has already won 2 braclets this year. If goes on to win then I think we would all have to agree that he made a deal with Satan

    I depsise Phil Hellmuth. When he swpeaks it makes me want to vomit. I think he is the biggest PRICK alive. HE deserves no respect. Plus if he will fold everything because he always thinks he is beat. I love playing people like that.

    How did helmuth get elimmed? Was it a super meltdown? How did he show up? I heard he was going to dress up like a pimp and do a 7000-girl ho-train conga line from the Luxxor to the poker room.

    here's how Phil loses every tourney:

    Step 1: show up 4 hours late, doesn't matter when only 15 hands/hr get dealt cuz it's live effing poker.

    Step 2: Fold your first 30 hands and remind your entire table that you've won 11 WSOP bracelets, fail to mention you've never won a tournament with a $1,000,000+ first-prize nor have you won an event outside of hold'em.

    Step 3: limp in EP and fold to a raise for the 16th time, make sure to tell the young internet kid you're going to trap him soon. Ask him if he knows who you are, and that you've won 11 bracelets.

    Step 4: blind down to 15bb's or less, then talk about how you've won 50+ tournaments with a shorter stack that this including your 11 WSOP bracelets.

    Step 5: get down to 3bb's, pick up QQ+, jam it in and lose as a big favorite, as you're exiting make sure to tell everyone how bad they play and how you've won 11 bracelets.

    You missed the part where someone takes him to the cleaners with T7o and then he calls them an idiot for the next 20 minutes, and it's so bad that Matasow says "man, that was out of line."

    When Mike effn Matasow tells you, to cool off, you KNOW you looked somewhere north of mentally retarded.

    I was hoping for an episode like that. I love watching those... it's like christmas morning.
