He didn't do that badly heads-up but some of the plays he made were :eek::eek:

I'm going for Michael Mizrachi this year. Had a real good run already in this year's WSOP, really think he can go deep.

Jackie Chan Will Kick Your Ass


We overheard two cheerful, well-lubricated fans shooting the breeze on the rail. They were a bit star struck by some of the players they were seeing, and there was real excitement in their voices.

"Jackie Chan over there has all the chips," one of them said, and both men burst into laughter as they realized the mistake. They elbowed each other and doubled over in hysterics, eventually restraining the laughter long enough for one of them to make an actual joke: "Jackie Chan will kick your ass in real life. Johnny Chan will kick your ass in poker."

I would also fold in that situation. Too many ways to get beat with a hand like that. Especially for a full shunt all in when the actions first on him.
 
I think I would fold also. At best you could be in a race if he had a lower pocket pair. KQ in that spot is easily dominated. KQs does look nice though especially if you've not been getting any decent cards.

Johnny Chan in 13th looks ominous

How amazing would it be if he won it again! One bloke called Paolo Giovanetti went down to a single chip and now sits on 61,000 at 3k/6k.

He had JJ against QQ and KK, KK flopped top set but the board brought 4 to a flush and he was the only one with a club.
 
Went in with £1 on Stan James last night and walked out with £10. Cards were OK, most wins were probably luck and calling bluffs. Set a target of £10 so ducked out once I got that, didn't want to get drawn into anything and going for bigger wins.
 
Bansi Folds to Seven-Bet Shove

The hand started innocently enough, but ended with Praz Bansi losing about 35% of his chips without even seeing a flop.

The action was folded around to Bansi in late position. He opened for 14,000 and Ryan Eriquezzo three-bet to 36,000. Both blinds folded and Bansi came back over the top for 88,000. Eriquezzo five-bet to 150,000, Bansi put in a sixth raise to 300,000 and Eriquezzo moved all-in for about 900,000 total. He had Bansi covered.

Bansi thought for an eternity before giving up his hand and saving his last 530,000 for a better spot.

"Weeeeeeee!" said Eriquezzo, rubbing salt in the wound as he showed the 10 of diamonds. He's up to 1.25 million.

Awesome :D

Former IRL and CART driver Gualter Salles was down to just one single, solitary, lonely yellow T1,000 chip moments ago. He won the first pot to move back into five figures, and the second double up got him back to 32,000 on the next hand.

^ He is now on 225,000 :eek:
