  • did you play Graham? You think these players would be a little more discrete. Isn't Tony G worried about being kidnapped, etc. with that vanity plate? maybe he only brings out the vanity plate for tournament days.
  • Wow! It looks like a great experience... for your brother! Nah, just kidding, there isn't much I wouldn't do to be in your shoes.

    Na, I didn't play... can't afford those kind of buy-ins right now. There are much wealthier people than Tony G here to kidnap, I am sure he doesn't have to worry. We met some baller french guy last night that had been walking around with security earlier in the day, but was all alone when we saw him. He had busted from the Main Event, but was going back to play some of the other events and 1000/2000 euro sit n gos. I have no idea who he is, but I suspect hes probably someone important. My point is you see tons of people walking around with big stacks of cash and I am sure there are bigger people to rob here, such as the guy who owns this yacht which is parked in the harbour. All in all, its been a lot of fun and met some interesting people and have had a good time.
  • Are the 20K SnGs still running or has the side event taken over the tables? Maybe you should play in the 2K side event. (by cashing in the CPF bux :D)
  • Choron is ITM... bubble just burst after 2 and a half hours at 81 players!
  • Nice pics Graham. Wish I was there.

    Although through those pics a dream was crushed.

    Patrik Antonius is married? Booooooooooo

    GL sir..shall be keeping tabs while I'm at work tomorrow.
  • Watching now.... Here's hoping Choron gets moved to the tv table. :)
  • Stupid question but what's Choron name ?

    I don't know him personally; but I think it's Glen Chorny.

    He's doing well according to the end of day 3 chip counts, here : PokerStars Poker Blog: EPT Monte Carlo Chip Counts



    AND OMFG Daniel just referenced the Wheel of Fortune episode of South Park. So friggin funny. :)
  • Up to date chip counts here: CardPlayer.com - World Series of Poker and WPT Tournament Coverage

    Choron is doing well -> 12th place 520k in chips.

    The feature table now has:

    Antonio Esfandiari (chip leader)
    Walid bou habib
    stig top rassmussen
    henrik gwinner
    Eric Liu
    Oyvind Rusem
    Maxime Villemuire (canadian! Go canada)
    Valeriy Ilikyan.


    No Choron at the feature table unfortunately.


    UPDATE: LOL, antonio was snoozing, and didn't realise the table was waiting on him, he jumps up and goes "Oh SH!T is the action on me! I fold. Sorry Guys"... and the announcer quickly points out, we are airing this live, please watch you language at the tables guys" (paraphased). LOL. so funny. There's going to be a 10 second delay for the Final Table for sure. :)
  • who is this Maxime Villemure? not a pokerstars qualifier. Wonder if he bought in directly? French?

    Not sure; he has no profile on Card Player; but Moneymaker said that he has played with him before.

    This page has him as a pokerstars qualifier:

    A $3M cash!

    /g2
  • How the hell do you stack 2.2 million in chips? Choron's heart must have been pounding on the river when the other guy had the flush draw.
  • OH SNAP!!!!!!!!! Genius to call clock on Antonio there. Pure genius.

    /g2
  • WOW. Awesome hand against Esfandiari for 1.6 mil. Q's full.

    Wp sir!
  • Wow. That was crazzzzy!

    Well played Glen.
  • LOL @ the comment from the girl about Chorny's wardrobe!

    "maybe he should put on something nicer than what he slept in!"

    hahahaha
  • What's with Vickey Coren slagging Choron's tee shirt? :)
  • Now he is getting slagged for dressing badly - but who cares if you are the chip leader.

    AGREED. Antonio sure looked like he was folding before the clock call.
