The Event



·        The $2,000 buy-in No-Limit Hold’em event attracted 1,646
entrants.  This created a prize pool totaling $2,995,720.  The top 171
finishers collected prize money.



·        When final table play began, the chip leader was Michael
Dyer.  He took a few early hits and exited quickly.  The remaining
players traded the chip lead a number of times before Anthony Harb
emerged as the winner.



·        The final hand of the night came when Harb was dealt Q-10
against Peter Rho’s 9-8.  After the final board showed K-9-8-J-4 Rho
moved all-in with two pair.  Harb insta-called with the nut-straight
and scooped the last pot of the tournament.



·        Harb revealed that he had very little sleep during this
tournament.  “The most sleep I had any one night was six hours,” he
said.  “I’m exhausted.”

·        Through Event #12, ten Americans have won gold bracelets.
One Russian player has won.  One Finnish player has won.  No other
nations have been represented on the gold bracelet stand.  So far,
this is a far cry from last year, when 16 of the 55 gold bracelet
events were won by non-Americans (29 percent).  This number increased
to 19 of 59 events (32 percent), including the four gold bracelet
tournaments played at WSOP-Europe.



·        All 50 U.S. states have had at least one entrant into this year’s WSOP.



·        All ten Canadian provinces have had at least one entrant into
this year’s WSOP.



·        Non-Americans (international players) make up about 15
percent of the field, in events played so far.  Note that this number
is expected to grow higher when the Main Event is played next month,
which attracts an even greater number of international visitors.  It’s
important to remember that last year, one international visitor named
Peter Eastgate came to the WSOP and won the world title and
$9,152,416.



·        The Event #11 winner Anthony Harb is to be classified as a
pro player.  He plays poker full-time (online).  Accordingly, the
“Pro-Am” gold bracelet scoreboard (excluding Event #1 – Casino
Employees) currently reads:



            Professionals --            6 wins
(Thang Luu, Steven Sung, Jason Mercier, Phil Ivey, Rami Boukai, Anthony Harb)

            Amateurs --      3 wins
            (Freddie Ellis, Ken Aldridge, Travis Johnson)

            Semi-Pros --     1 win
            (Vitaly Lunkin)

Errors and Omissions (Previous Reports):



·        Please note that in the final results for Event #11, the
81st-place finisher was JACK GRIGSBY III.  There is another player
with poker results named “JACK GRIGSBY.”  This is the father.  Note
that JACK GRIGSBY III should be listed independently.



·        Event #3 had the player in 46th place with a misspelled name.
The correct name is BRADLEY BIRARDA.

Flushy, you were only to happy to banter with me on the rail at the PPT Final about the shocking standard of play there. I don't remember you telling me that, as a live updater, I should keep my opions to myself. And your statement that "If my entire life bankroll was the buy in of this tournament, I'd still play" is a lot more degrading and out of place to anything I've ever said about the standard of play at a tournament.

First of all i was not picking on you or your comment in particular, more the habbit of updaters to cast comments onto their updates when they probably have no clue about the specific table dynamics or meta implications of a hand. Obviously updaters should have opinions i just dont think they should be the centrepiece of the updates.

You and me in France were 2 friends talking i think you would agree that you would not post the stuff you were saying as an employee representing a company, it really pisses me off sometimes when updates on blonde have stuff written by an updater expressing their personal opinion about a player/play as if it was their own blog.

Ironically this debate has stemmed from a comment which was not posted anyway! To which i have no problem with the comment, as long as you don't put it into print. Cheesy

Fair play Flushy, you make some good points. There needs to be a balance for sure in updating.  My 'real' personal views at rarely make it on to blogs at the type on standards tournaments we're discussing. Very hard not to be editorial at times though!

Gonna be tough for Praz - the other table has more than twice the number of chips that his does.

According to Marc Convey they're pretty much all tez though.


Wish I was that tez !!




We all do. I think we can take Mr Convey's words with a pinch of salt.

Or trust his word given that he's watched that tournament consistently for the last three days.

Always amuses me when poker updaters call players tez, while they are walking around with pen & paper in their hands instead of cards.

+1 updater's should update not comment on standard.

Meanwhile....ONE TIME PARKER!

I don't know I got involved in this but feel I need to comment.

Tikay, we've probably said ten words to each other our entire lives so how you have the opinion that my words should be "taken with a pinch of salt" I do not know. I also think you'd be hard pushed to find someone in the industry who has a bad word to say about me so I don't think you can be taking the words out of the mouth of someone else.  So I do not take kindly to you having any options about me and my character.

My opinions about either event were not posted in a blog, were just mentioned in passing conversations to friends. I stand by what I said to Homer about the 6-max and Praz and Peter Gould will, I'm sure, agree.

Marc
Hi Marc,

Thank you for taking the trouble, & being honest enough, to openly respond.

I think you have misunderstood my point here, & I'm going to explain why.

Before I do, you referred to me having "options" about you, & I assume you mean't "opinions". Either way, please just re-examine what I said, & to whom.

Floppy suggested the players were "tez", & backed that up by saying those were your words, not his.

Now, you need to know that I'm "fairly old", & I expect you are of "normal" age. My generation have a default setting of respecting people, a stance which sits oddly in a modern world where everyone disses others.

So, in over a decade of poker, whenever I have seen players described as donkeys, muppets, fish, tez, it sits uncomfortably with me. I just don't like insulting fellow players in that manner, except in individual specific cases where they deserve it. And this is "my" forum, upon which I have tried to impose my, admittedly Victorian, moral standards. To describe half of the remaining field in a Bracelet Event as "tez" troubled me, to be honest. Not to the point of being upset, but it just sat wrong with me.

So, quite politely, I responded to the insult on these "tez" players by trying to give some balance, & suggesting that perhaps that description, uttered by you, "should be taken with a pinch of salt".

It was not a barb aimed at you. It was not rude, it was not an opinion on the integrity of your view. It's simply what I do on this Forum, always, since it started - try to dilute, gently, unfair criticism of individuals. When threads got hot on here, we used to say "weather been grand today, eh?" as a means of cooling things down. "taken with a pinch of slt" was just balance, because I just felt those "tez" players, on maybe the greatest moment of their lifes, (truly), deserved a little more respect. That's all.

"Unfair"? Well, they may wel, be "tez", & I won't argue with you. They might be complete donkeys, in fact. But they might also be players who are experiencing the very highest moments of their poker "career" - on the very edge of a WSOP Bracelet Final Table, & perhaps even a Bracelet. I'd rather like to rejoice in that wonderful moment, whoever wins, rather than just say "pah, he was tez".

Now I happen to think, for those guys, that that's rather "nice". And I know, I know, "nice" is pretty uncool these days. But I like nice, it makes me feel all warm & cooey-wooey. Dissing & denegrating folks, insulting fellow players by suggesting they are "tez", makes me shudder. I know, I don't really belong in poker, where insulting all & sundry is the order of the day, but I make a good living from poker, so I'll hang in a little longer.

That view is not confined to you, or to Flops, it's to everyone. Elsewhere on this thread a guy got described as a "fat american arsehole". Why? because he had the temerity to bust "our man", Praz Bansi, who is a friend of mine, as it happens. Our "fat" friend went in ahead, mind you, but got himself insulted because he busted "our man". That's never, ever, going to sit comfortably with me. In fact, I hated that description. Because I just don't think we should show such lack of respect to our fellow players, thats all. If the "fat arsehole" was you, or your Dad, would you be happy to see him so described? I don't think so.

It's a generation thing. I do respect, as almost everyone of my age does. But the internet has almost killed respect. Play Online Poker, & see decent people called all sorts, & have death or cancer wished upon them. Because they won a hand of poker. It's puerile, & it's disrespectful.

So there you go. If you think I was insulting you, I gladly & unreservedly apologise. But I assure you, I was not. Check on my last 1,000, or even 10,000 Posts. You won't find me insulting too many folks. I don't actually know if I know you - & it matters not. I had no wish to insult you, & I don't think I did. It's just how I try to stem the ever-rising floodtide of insults against individuals. And it's why I shall soon abandon Forums, because these day, everyone thinks its fine to insult anyone & everyone. In my little world, it's not.

I wish you a successful WSOP, & I hope to see you there shortly.

You can take my comments with a pinch of salt, too, if you wish.

Have a nice day. Which means exactly what it says. 


.

Thanks for taking the time to respond in a detailed way Tikay. It has helped to put your thought process behind what you said in to context. One line comments in the written word can easily be taken out of the context that was meant.

No hard feelings and we'll talk about the great standard of play I've seen so far over a beer when you get out here. You're buying though, lol.
