WSOP Ante Only Final Post by: Tal on June 27, 2013, 09:52:12 PM Final table being streamed on wsop.com on a 30minute delay.
Players now on a short break (10 mins). Little by way of Moorman-related substance thus far. Two players in t-shirts today. Four in hoodies. One in a zip up jumper sans-hood. One (the most senior by way of years) in a smart jacket and freshly polished shoes. And then there is the Brit. Mr Moorman is looking resplendant in an (can't be sure of exact colour in the purple light) oatmeal grey fitted jacket, complete with brown elbow patches. He looks like the geography teacher all the girls fell in love with at school. The announcement of the break by the TD was met with a cry of "Mister GQ! GQ Man of the Year, Chris Moorman!" from a rail About to restart. Won't post any hands or details in case there are watchers from afar on the stream. Title: Re: The funk for Moorman1.

TID feel the rail is going too get messy if he does Title: Re: The funk for Moorman1. WSOP Ante Only Final Post by: s4ooter on June 27, 2013, 10:07:39 PM Old Boy runs golden
Title: Re: The funk for Moorman1. WSOP Ante Only Final Post by: Tal on June 27, 2013, 10:30:01 PM Some very...deliberate...play on display. Quite understandable given the money and prestige involved. Each pot won is rewarded with a cheer/holler/whoop/"get in the hole, you the man, Tiger" (OK not that last one, but you get the picture) from a different corner of the rail.
The corner of this foreign field that shall be forever England is growing in population. Currently relaxed, like the early stages of an ODI at Lord's. Likely, given the bottled beverages on display, to increase gradually in volume and orchestration as the day progresses. Mood is very much one of anticipation. Title: Re: The funk for Moorman1.

Yeah that's how you win MTTs :D Title: Re: The funk for Moorman1. WSOP Ante Only Final Post by: Tal on June 28, 2013, 12:46:07 AM Moorman's rail now a good 30 in number. A who's who of UK poker here in support. (Should point out I'm not in that! Am railing the rail from the other side of the table)
As a player exits in seventh, he downs his celebratory beer in a single attempt, much to the delight of Messrs Grafton & co, who cheer him every swig of the way, releasing a cacophony of noise as the final drop is dispatched. That player was not Mr Moorman. Two jackets and four hoodies remain. Title: Re: The funk for Moorman1. WSOP Ante Only Final Post by: Karabiner on June 28, 2013, 12:48:25 AM Any shoe-bombs yet Tal?

Title: Re: The funk for Moorman1. WSOP Ante Only Final Post by: TightEnd on June 28, 2013, 10:06:25 AM 2013 WSOP Event #45 Final Table Results
Place Name Prize Money 1 Ben Volpe 201,399 2 Paul Lieu 124,352 3 Louis Bonnecaze 80,839 4 Blair Hinkle 59,375 5 Chris Moorman 44,227 6 Horacio Chaves 33,371 7 Adam Stone 25,472 8 Danny Johnson 19,660 9 Samuel Panzica 15,331 Eventual second place finisher Paul Lieu, had a tough time with seven remaining, as he was at the bottom of the chips counts, before two crucial hands brought him back to life. In the first, he committed the last of his chips with 6-6 against Chris Moorman's A-Q on a Ace high . He was able to spike the 6 on the turn to double back up. Shortly after, he used his new earned wealth, to eliminated Adam Stone from the final table. Chris Moorman started the day as one of the lowest chip stacks, and was able to make it to the final five, before the inform Lieu was on a mission to eliminate another player on his quest for victory, The remaining five players limped into the pot, and saw the flop come J-10-8 , before Moorman moved all and was called by Lieu. Moorman had 8-5 and was up against Lieu's 10-8. He wasn't able to improve with his bottom pair, as we were left with just four. Title: Re: The funk for Moorman1.

Title: Re: The funk for Moorman1. WSOP Ante Only Final Post by: Tal on June 28, 2013, 10:34:11 AM Sorry for lack of Tightyesque updates. I lost WiFi and then I lost battery.
Excellent atmosphere. Top skippering by The Squid. Title: Re: The funk for Moorman1. WSOP Ante Only Final Post by: BulldozerD on June 28, 2013, 10:35:15 AM Watched the early stuff last night and was pretty surprised to see lieu heads up, he looked tilted from the start. Must have got lucky later on
Title: Re: The funk for Moorman1. WSOP Ante Only Final Post by: JaffaCake on June 28, 2013, 11:15:10 AM unlucky Chris, really wanted him to win this, top, top guy. He'll win one sooner or later.
Weird game this antes only, don't like it at all. Loads of limping, can blind yourself off for fun and still pick up a big pot, like seven times your remaining stack, by being able to ante and having some scratch to get in. Hinkle had the world when I switched off, what happened to him? That Lui fella was an absolute pay off wizard of the worst kind, the kind that sits there for 10 mins pretending to think then calls anyway Title: Re: The funk for Moorman1.
