  • CPF clothing probably wouldn't be allowed anyway. At the start of each WPT tournament, they force you to sign your life and other rights away, which was one of the reasons for the boycott and lawsuit against WPT. There are strict restrictions on logos and sponsorship.

  • Hand 8: Michael Watson raises 60,000 and Charles Moore makes the call. The flop rolls out Aheart.gifQheart.gif9club.gif and both players check. The 9heart.gif falls on the turn and Moore bets 125,000. Watson makes the call and the 3diamond.gif hits on the river. Both players check and Watson turns up Qclub.gifJspade.gif to win the hand.

    Oh and please kill Phil when you get the chance man...

    Hellmuth on Mega Tilt
    Phil Hellmuth has gone on tilt in the last few hands. It is a mixture between nega-tilt and posi-tilt that only Hellmuth can provide. At one minute he's steaming, and the next he is saying, "I'm the greatest player in the world," and "This is why I don't travel to tournaments anymore, because donkeys just suck out on me."

  • Pinhead, at least you don't have to worry about getting stiffed on the rent...and dude has to buy a 12pack for the house again...if the old rules still apply.

    GL Mike!!!
  • Hand 21: Nam raises to 55,000 and Watson reraises 110,00 more. Nam folds.

    Hand 25: Mike Watson raises to 60,000, and Charles Moore reraises to 230,000, leaving himself about 450,000 behind. Watson folds, and Moore takes the pot.

    Fair enough, there is still some kind of rule like that in place. I wonder if I can talk him into a 12 pack of cars...
  • lol !

    Hand 16: Montogomery raises to 66,000 and Hellmuth makes the call. The flop brings Qclub.gif2diamond.gif2heart.gif and Montgomery raises 80,000. Hellmuth makes the call and the tunr brings the 3spade.gif Montgomery raises 120,000 and Hellmuth raises Montgomery all in for 90,000 more. Montgomery makes the call. Their hands:
    Hellmuth: 9diamond.gif9heart.gif
    Montgomery: 6diamond.gif6club.gif
    River: 6heart.gif
    Montgomery hits a 6 on the river to double up to 560,000 and Hellmuth is fuming.

    I love how he steams when he goes in with a short stack and they hit their magical 2 outer. It's his fault for not shoving on the flop....figure in that situation short stack continuation bets every hand other than a Queen or a duece. So he is beating more than 50% of the hands out there....put the short stack to a decision on the flop..there is over 200,000 in the pot before helmuth even makes the call on the flop.

    Not sure how you can question the best poker player in the world.

    Hand 34: Theo Tran limps in the small blind and Mike Watson raises to 60,000 in the big blind. Tran calls and the flop comes Kdiamond.gif10club.gif4club.gif and both players check. The turn is the 6spade.gif and both players check again. The river is the 8diamond.gif and Watson bets 100,000. Tran calls and Watson shows Qheart.gif10spade.gif to take it down.
  • Hand 44: Jennifer Tilly raises to 70,000 and Mike Watson reraises her to 225,000. Tilly folds and Watson takes in the pot.


    lolz
  • Hand 37: Jennifer Tilly raises to 70,000 and Theo Tran calls. The flop comes KJ10 and Tran bets 85,000. Tilly calls and the turn is the 10. Both players check to the 5 on the river and Tran bets 175,000. Tilly calls and Tran turns over pocket fives for a full house. Tilly gets upset and briefly storms out of the room.


    AK perhaps?

    Or could she have tried to slowroll her AQ?

    If so, she deserved it for checking behind when the turn paired the board.

    I think you meant Q9, and for that, I thank you.
    :)

    But I don't think she has the skill to pull off a preflop raise with Q9, there are only a certain few that can do that.
    :D
  • Hand 55: Theo Tran completes the small blind for 24,000, and Mike Watson checks his option in the big blind. The flop comes K74(all diamonds), Tran bets 55,000, Watson raises to 200,000, and Tran folds. Mike "SirWatts" Watson takes the pot.

    did he have it?? hmmmmmmmm
  • ... and then there were 11.
  • Ouch... Mike lost half his stack.

    Hand 88: Wei Kai Chang raises from middle position to 95,000, Mike Watson reraises from the small blind to 300,000, and Chang calls, leaving himself just 280,000 behind.
    The flop comes Jspade.gif3club.gif2diamond.gif, Watson moves all in, and Chang calls all in with 9club.gif9diamond.gif for a pair of nines. Watson shows Aspade.gifQclub.gif for ace high, and he'll need to improve to bust Chang here.
    The turn card is the 8spade.gif, the river is the 10heart.gif, and Wei Kai Chang doubles up to about 1.2 million with a pair of nines.
  • Final table.... Go Mike, set ol Phil off....

    **** survive.... lol... Take it down!
  • Gotta get there first. Still pulling for him. LOL at Hellmuth "sensing" weakness.
  • Yeah, I'm pretty sure Watts is gonna win this... just to one up timex by a couple pt mills.

    /g2
  • Way to go Phil, show the class we all know you have...

    Hand #3: Charles Moore has the button in seat 9, Chang raises from early position to 95,000, and Hellmuth calls from late position. The flop comes 975, Chang bets 170,000, and Hellmuth calls. The turn card pairs the board with the 9, Chang checks, Hellmuth bets 180,000, and Chang calls.

    Hellmuth calls for a deuce on the river, but the last card is the A. Chang thinks for about two minutes before betting 300,000, and Hellmuth calls. Chang shows 88 for two pair, nines and eights, and Hellmuth studies the board for a moment before mucking.

    The dealer pushes the pot to Chang, and Hellmuth begins berating him, asking whether that last bet was a bluff. Hellmuth says that he sensed weakness, but apparently he didn't sense enough weakness. Hellmuth rhetorically asks whether or not this is a major championship tournament, and finally turns to our reporter and says, "Put that hand on the internet, boys." Our reporter replied, "Every hand goes on the internet, Phil."
  • anything you can do I can do better, I can do anything better than you.

    No you can't. Yes I can. No you can't

    Just can't picture them doing Rogers and Hammerstein . . .
  • Haven't seen Mike play any hands lately, must be getting ante'd & blinded down...
