The Canadian Billionnaire was very kind to David Benyamine.  Nice to see, considering he probably doesn't know him all that well

Guy realised 28% of his equity in the hand, letting David off with the other 72% in a $123k early Christmas present.  I wonder how one gets an invite to the Guy Laliberte home game?

Well done to Guy for that..Benjamin looked like he was literally bricking it and Guy just thought he couldn't do that to the man.

i'm loving these shows, apart from them running it 20 times every hand.

It's weird to see these guys absolutely racked with pressure and fear, antonius in that big pot with farha was so freaked by the size of the pot and hes normally just rocked solid. And benyamin bricking it was funny.

I think the $500,000 buy-in has ruined the show really.  Obviously only one guy at the table can afford it which kind of defeats the point of having it.  With all the negotiating after the money has gone in, they only fit about 5 hands in per show.  The lower buy-in with the 7-2 game was more entertaining.

I disagree i think the 7-2 game ran its course and started to become a bit of a bore imo. I think the 500k buy in while has reduced the amount of action and moves, it has been a techincally better game of poker and less artificial.

Yeah I agree, its stopped the likes of Sheiky coming in for a $50k dash and then leaving, you can tell that most of them are playing for money that is a significant amount for them and its putting them under some pressure.

But the point of the show is to give people who don't have the money to play in high stakes games, how it looks and feels and the $500,000 is nothing like any of the big games those guys play in.  It's only Guy who can afford it.
