Title: Re: tonights poker million Post by: Boba Fett on September 26, 2006, 02:22:37 PM Pretty good lineup!
Title: Re: tonights poker million Post by: whufc65 on September 26, 2006, 06:10:33 PM My tip for tonight is Rory Mathews
Title: Re: tonights poker million Post by: ACE2M on September 27, 2006, 09:17:45 AM I fell asleep when it was 3 handed, anyone know who won?
Title: Re: tonights poker million Post by: thediceman on September 27, 2006, 09:34:06 AM Ram
Title: Re: tonights poker million Post by: Woodsey on September 27, 2006, 09:42:56 AM He had a stack of good cards. He kept going all in preflop, was this because of a poor structure?
Title: Re: tonights poker million Post by: cambo on September 27, 2006, 01:22:05 PM rory very unlucky hes a top top player, would have won imo if his qq held up against rams ace queen
Title: Re: tonights poker million Post by: ACE2M on September 27, 2006, 01:59:31 PM Was it a poor structure or did they play so slow it turned into a crapshoot?
Seems insane to have very good players like ram, mafews and martin wendt then have them playing car crash poker. Have they piad full buy in? not sure i would shell out so much money expecting an all in fest.

Theres nothing like a good game of poker, and this was nothing like a good game of poker!

I wonder if the TV producers had a say in the structure...... go figuire. Title: Re: tonights poker million Post by: Woodsey on September 27, 2006, 06:07:28 PM What happened to martin wendt I'm sure he didn't have that big scar on him head a year or two back

He told me he feels just lucky to be alive. He has such a great outlook on life and is such a friendly guy (he even laid down 55 to me on a T578 board to me once, how nice is that!)

Jeeeeez Title: Re: tonights poker million Post by: Boba Fett on September 27, 2006, 08:49:45 PM It is pretty outrageous that 56 hands in the blinds were so high that it was all in or fold, they must have been doing the classics laddies blinds up every 10 hands
Title: Re: tonights poker million Post by: Snatiramas on September 28, 2006, 09:51:18 AM Does this whole thing come down to the question are laddies losing the plot which is in the poker section......If you have TV then you play to their tune

I wonder if the TV producers had a say in the structure...... go figuire. To be fair to Ladbrokes I think the problem could be their choice of partner. I imagine the structure was devised by the partner given the cost of filming poker and as with their other TV offerings such as the Poker Den and other comps, the partners aim seems to be to make money and not nessacerily provide a good comp. Title: Re: tonights poker million Post by: boldie on September 28, 2006, 04:54:59 PM Ram true class he is. what a shit tourney though....(just watched it) my God..I'd want my money back. Title: Re: tonights poker million Post by: bobby1 on September 28, 2006, 06:09:16 PM Ram true class he is. what a shit tourney though....(just watched it) my God..I'd want my money back. Its a pity coz the Poker Million was a great comp in the early days. Title: Re: tonights poker million Post by: MrMoves on September 28, 2006, 06:19:05 PM I've only watched short snippets and it looks like a crap tournament IMHO.
Tough to get the right balance for telly I guess. Title: Re: tonights poker million Post by: stereoman on September 29, 2006, 03:06:47 AM Who do we blame here? Matchroom Sport? I assume this is one of their's. Too many of these type of tournaments on Briitsh TV (possibly a syndrome of the WPT final tables).
Title: Re: tonights poker million Post by: marcro on September 29, 2006, 10:15:00 AM It should be positioned for what it is - a 6 seater Sit and Go which many will say is not poker. Nobody to blame since this is a popular format as indicated by the numbers that play them.
