updaters... do you remember a so long bubble or is it realy unusual

Until some incredible geek with super-googling powers and a lot of spare time tells me otherwise, I'm declaring this the Longest Ever EPT Bubble.

Attention incredible geeks! It could be you! Anyone know for sure? Sorry, no official bubble length figures. I don't recall seeing one this long though. As it were.

Hello. I saw/heard this confrontation, and, I must confess, thoroughly enjoyed it from an entertainment perspective. Basically, Joe Hachem had just lost a huge pot, which, my source informs me, went check check at the end, and tried to muck his cards on the River. A couple of the players, one of whom was Woody Deck, were demanding to see his cards, but Hachem refused. Woody Deck then called him an asshole and hinted that he was being a diva and trying to play the 'superstar card' (ie. too famous to have to show). At this point, and I got a great view of this, Hachem leapt out of his chair in a fit of rage and bellowed, "Who the fuck do you think you are", even, and it brings a tear to my eye that a player could use such a derogatory word, calling Woody 'Euro'. As Woody shrugged his shoulders and sat their grinning like a naughty schoolchild, Hachem paced around the table momentarily before storming off.

Don't suppose this was filmed?? I would definitely pay to have seen this

A picture of Pierre Hall would be greatly appreciated .......

Is he normally this focused and alert?

He's Canadian...i'm surprised it's not beer in front of him instead of water.

not the longest bubble - theres a quote on pokernews - "there was a 2 leveller in dublin"

[Madone]

True but all EPT's have 1 hour blind levels and this one is 90 mins so this probably is the longest bubble in history!

[snoopy1239]

Much to the disappointment of all who were watching, some even chanting for the outdraw, shortstacked Andreas Hagen has doubled through courtesy of  Gordon Vayo (pictured). All-in with A-J versus 4-2s, Andreas had to survive a 5-6-7 Flop, but successfully managed to do so on the Q Turn and K River.

Roughly 8mins a hand here.  Here's what happens after tables have finished promptly and one table has a confrontation/players thinking about confronting each other/players not realising it's their go:

1)  They wander around for a bit of a chat, a la Eric Liu and Clayton Maguire (I think).  You know.  Discussing approaches, stacks, life.



2)  Turning 90 degrees, I see that Claudio Pagano wandering a bit, in a different way, through the corridors of his mind, bored into arm-crossed introversion by this monstrous bubble...

It's Eau de Vie.
