man, acre, im playing right now too, i just got back in, and wow man, i forgot how bad some of the shite is

the fact that im still up over the past four days is beyond unreal
i won a 7 card stud even last night so that eased a little bit of the pain

it's just to play for 4 hours and go out the way i did.

but i did forget to mention i sucked out HUGE earlier.

I had JJ vs KK vs QQ and caught a J on the flop

I was chip leader at the table though so the call wasn't that hard to make, although i was las to act after two allins..

What was the guy supposed to do? He had top pair, can't put Hellmuth on flopping a gut shot straight, and the guy's still drawing to a higher straight. The guy had him beat pre-flop, flopped top pair, and Hellmuth let him keep drawing to his flush.

Sorry, But You WON'T Be At the Feature Table

According to one member of the ESPN camera crew, Phil Ivey's table (table #90 in the orange section) was supposed to be the feature table to start the day. Everyone at the table was not only going to get a chance to play at the feature table with one of the greatest players in the game, but they'd also be lined up to receive about $10,000 in sponsorship money from various companies. Ivey didn't want to be seated at the feature table and he got his wish. Everyone at the table was pretty irritated at this decision. This was all according to the camera crew and we'll have to wait and see if any of the players go after Ivey a little bit more throughout the day.

I'd be asking him for my fricking money. I don't see how they get that much for playing in day 1

There wasn't any follow up post. An earlier post said he was eating and asked the camera crew to stop while he was eating at the table. I would imagine he didn't want the limelight just yet for the ME.
