The scenes outside DTD for the cash games tonight are a sight to behold this morning (http://i.thisislondon.co.uk/i/pix/2008/09/hamlet-queue-415x275.jpg) Title: Re: Skintz Scoops a SCOOP Post by: AndrewT on May 11, 2011, 09:31:47 AM I heard that Stars actually credited $565,000 to his account by mistake but he withdrew it before they noticed.

Title: Re: Skintz Scoops a SCOOP Post by: Sack it off on May 11, 2011, 01:41:24 PM I watched the deal, how he managed to get $56k when ftw was $75k and he had 20bb with 8 left I will never know
Title: Re: Skintz Scoops a SCOOP Post by: Boba Fett on May 11, 2011, 01:57:41 PM It was maybe the most hilarious deal negotiations Ive ever seen. 3 or 4 players just obv happy to lock up a decent amount were agreeing to anything, a few pushing for more. Joejoe asked for 20k despite having 5bbs, insta got it, then a couple of the other smaller stacks started asking for more, they eventually got it, one guy asked for 25k and got it and then when they were confirming numbers, a guy with the same stack noticed he is getting a few k less and then he wants more. The shorty, 1 SB behind Joejoe then offers to drop to 17k to help get it done lol.
I think in the M and L events someone with experience can really get a great deal on a chop. Title: Re: Skintz Scoops a SCOOP Post by: JK on May 11, 2011, 04:50:25 PM Pete's been playing so so well recently, and hes got close in these way too often. Really deserved this, so pleased for him.
