Title: WORLD SERIES OF POKER 2005
Post by: snoopy1239 on November 01, 2005, 07:12:42 PM
Just noticed that the show is billed for 10pm on challenge tonight.

Does any1 know if this is the 1st episode, or was there one broadcast last night/last week?

Thrilled to bits. It's my fave poker show.

We may soon see a certain Mr Wilson on our screens.

 :hello:

Ooooh this is good news. It means that in all likelyhood the full torrent of the entire series will be available somewhere...

Watched the one where Johnny Chan won his 10th bracelet last night.

Favourite bit:

Phil Laak when heads up:
"You know i should just leave and let myself get blinded out now - that would really piss Phil Hellmuth off!"

urgh.

Please tell me that's the 1st episode.

Sounds like I've missed more than 1 now.

met Bellende and Kevin Keller when in the Bahamas for the WPT event, they were both permanent fixtures at the biggest cash game being played there. bellande once lost a $5000 chip and had all of security looking for it, turned out it was in the back pocket of his shorts and he'd been sat on it all along but he was a proper pain in the A**e all the way through. We met Kevin and his wife at the airport in Miami before flying over to the Bahamas, had a few meals with them, they're from San Diego and he's a decent bloke and very good cash game player.

I think that they are 2 hour shows for the circuit events and 1 hour shows for the wsop supporting events that took place at The Rio in June/July and that Challenge have broken the 2 hr shows down into two parts each lasting one hour each.

In any event they are showing the circuit events first which took place in the months before the main series events and presumably these will be shown after these circuit events.

Something... er... else was on.

Thalar got AK into KK then Bellend blew off his chips betting into Doug Lees straight.

Harman was short stacked got her chips in with QQ vs T 9 on a KTx flop T on river and the worst player won.

Anyone watching it now and possibly the weirdest/funniest thing i have seen in tv poker. Bloke lays down a set of 10's on a non 3 flush a j 10 x  board. To find his opponents with qq and busted flush draw. Then turns to phil ivey and says i screwed up. Phil ivey refuses to believe him lol.

He obviously thought David Phan had a set of Jacks or Aces (rather than Queens) as he was the pre flop raiser and its impossible to put the other guy on a straight there as he wouldn't have called the initial raise (imho) and the flop was checked by David Pham too.

Anyway I was wrong about the length of the shows. Oddly enough the first was 2 hours and the others one hour.
