And props to me for hitting the Bellagio last night to get my money back instead of sitting around moping. But I'm sure that's not a sign of a problem...

Voice of Reason Regarding Shutouts
T.J. Cloutier has made the final table of the main event three times. He's won six bracelets
and played in the main event every year since 1983. This year, however, at 69 years of age,
he's among those watching from the sidelines. Unlike so many of his fellow shutouts, he
takes full responsibility for his situation. "It's only fair," said the Texan rounder,
another member of the WSOP Players Advisory Council. "I should have signed up earlier.
I'm not looking for special treatment."

2009 WSOP Main Event Day 1
Table not so good. Got up to 50k. Played like a retard for 3 minutes. Down to less than 20. Didn't win anything. Down to 10. Got a gift. Finish day @ 19k. Bleh.
In the entire six weeks, I don't think I've felt I played as poorly as I did during my nosedive. Bad timing.
I think stars threw the jinx on with this:
http://www.pokerstarsblog.com/wsop/2009/wsop-main-event-poker-freaks-047092.html
P.S. Go Jorj95! He's @ 108, and has the due factor working overtime.

Grischuk at the WSOP
Alexander Grishchuk 111875
Is that THE Grischuk?
There is a picture of him in a recent New in Chess having won a roulette tournament in Monte Carlo or Nice or something, and I think I read something about him liking to play poker. Winning Linares and the WSOP in the same year would be something I would daresay would never be done again.
Day 1 Ryan-Roto Update:
Jim's team:
Sandra Naujoks 76725
Vitaly Lunkin 68300
Jason Mercier 41125
Gus Hansen 38075
Jon Turner 13350
Allen Cunningham 0
Ryan's team:
John Hennigan 76250
Scott Hall 76025
Sorel Mizzi 41375
Isaac Baron 37500
Maybe others out, but AC was the only one they listed specifically.

2009 WSOP Main Event Mini-Roto
For the first time in a few years, no one from Phoenix won a bracelet (one 2nd and three 3rds), so we didn't get a chance to do a full roto. So Ryan Hughes and I just did a little draft. I picked first. $1000 for whosever team wins the most money. $3k bonus if a guy makes a final table or $5k instead if he wins. I won the toss, and picked first. Each roster is 20 picks, at least two being of the fairer sex, plus oneself.

$1500 Seven Stud Hi-Lo Day One
5100. Play was really bad. But I didn't scoop a pot on 7th street until 7 hours and 25 minutes of play had elapsed, so I'm happy to be in there, little dick and all.

Limit Holdem SpewOut
I had a pretty good table for a semifinal round. For example, we had one player open limp the button, small blind raises, I call in BB, and limper folds. He was a FullTiltPro. Also had an older guy who played his hands faceup. At the first break, I was even and thought I had ran rather bad. Level 3, blinds are 500-1000, and I have my initial 45000.
I raise with KT on the button, the small blind 3 bets, bb folds, I call.
Kxy
BC
Q
BRRC
z
BC. He has KQ. Oops. 35000
I raise utg w ATs. F, reR, FFFFC.
T63.
KBRC.
7
BRC
x
KBC. He shows me 33 for the set.
Okay. 25000.
AJs I raise. Danny Dang in SB 3bets; bb calls, I call.
Flop is
QhQd9h (not my suit)
BFC
7o
BC
5o
B, long think by me, call, he has KK.
In the big blind with Q8s it's raised by Dutch guy(who was a good player), folded to me, I defend.
Qh6h2c
KBRC
6d
BC
As
KBC, he has AJo, and I'm donw to 11500.
Few hands later, I'm in button -2, and I see button is going to fold, I raise w J6s. Cutoff reraises and we're heads up. Flop is
JhTc8c
KBC
Jc
KBRRC
9c (yikes),
KB, short think and I fold. He shows me the AKc.
Down to 3500 now, and I get all in with KhKs vs KcTc
flop is a nice
Qc6h2d
but OF COURSE the turn is ...
Jc
but river is
5s, and I'm back to 8500.
Here the blinds went up to 800-1500, a 50+% jump. I got all in with KJs vs 88, didn't hit and lost. From starting stack to out in 20 minutes. ugh.
I was exhausted, so didn't play today's nooner. Am playing eight-or-better at 5pm. If Ryan can stay alive in the nooner I might have a shot...

2009 WSOP Events #47, #48 & #50 (partial)
Weds Jun 24, Event #47 - $2500 Mixed Hold'em (Limit/No-Limit) This one went pretty well, I felt like I was ahead of the field, and I was making money. Then my ATs ran into ATo and I was out...
Thurs Jun 25, Event #48 - $1500 Pot-Limit Omaha Hi-low Split-8 or Better Loved this spot. Maybe best one all year. I ran my starting stack up to > $20,000 reasonably quickly, then had a doomer hand when the guy on my right open pots it, I have AAK2s and repot, he rerepots and we get all in. He has AA23s. The board was 86432 at the end, and his two pair (2s and 3s!) crushed my aces and I was quartered. I'm a slight dog of course, but that's about the only situation where I am, and in any event, there's no getting off that train. Lost all other pots and I was out.
Fri Jun 25, Event #50 - $1500 Limit Hold’em Shootout - Well, this is a pretty good spot, too. For example, first hand of the tournament a guy raises, little old lady cold calls, flop is AT2. Guy bets, lady calls. Turn is an 8 off suit. He checks, she bets, he check raises, she calls. River is another deuce. He bets she calls. His hand: 32o. Her hand: TT. So there was some dead money at my table. Victor Ramdin sat in and played a little fast, and I got in the habit of 3-betting him pretty thin. Turns out he was double-dipping -- at the Venetian(!). He got the opportunity to continue playing over there. Got down to 5-handed with the 5 decent players, but I felt like I had some edge. 3-handed was pretty even, but the guy who got 3rd just got cold-decked out. Heads up I was playing John Saer of Phoenix. He played a little bit too snug, but in any event, I was probably going to win the match given how the cards fell. I've locked up some small amount of $ and am down to the final 64. Starting at 2pm today, we play 8 tables of 8 so as to make the final table tomorrow.

2009 WSOP Events #42 & #46
Sun, Jun 21 at 05:00 PM Event #42 - $2,500 8-Game Mixed Event - Um, this was a pretty good spot. The number of players who were experienced in all eight games was, um, less than 100% of the field. Of course, we had the usual hand where someone shows down an ace in their lowball hand.. in level 4. First round of triple draw we ran out of cards --- on the second draw. We had a razz hand where the king of spades brought it in for the max -- AND none of the callers thought to raise. So, as expected this was a good spot. I got moved to a second table that wasn't such a good spot, but hung in and ended day one a little below par @ 13k. My day 2 table was slightly not soft with JC Tran, Chris Bjorin and Danny Dang on my left and Scott Clements and Keith Lehr on my right. I had to defend my first big blind in Omaha to a player going all in, and lost, so I was down to half my chips. Broke even on razz. Doubled up when JC Tran tried pushing me off a stud hand with air -- one pair goot. Stole a little bit in eight or better. When we got to no-limit holdem, I was happy. The antes were HUGE. Like 2/3 the small blind or more. First hand, Lehr raises UTG and I ship 15k with K8s, and he folds. When the button comes to me, it's folded and I have AQs. I am over 15 x the BB, so I lay out the bait, JC reraises and I'm all in. AQs for me K8s for him. Two 8s on the flop... Those donks and their K8s's.
Tue, Jun 23 at 05:00 PM Event #46 - $2,500 Omaha Hi/Lo 8 or Better - I was looking forward to this, and when I got to my starting table.. OMFG. Best table I've ever had. In the back so no way it was breaking all day, and these players were weak. I kept looking around for the second best player at my table, but could never find one. So, of course.. I didn't win a hand for 3.5 hours. Once, I did get quartered with a wheel in a 3-way pot. Had an all-in winner after dinner, but then never dragged another chip. FUKFUKFUK. I feel like I lost at least 10k there. We had a few okay players moved to my table, as well as ![[info]](http://l-stat.livejournal.com/img/userinfo.gif) andybloch. At one point when we were eight-handed, half my table was 4/9 of my earlier Omaha final table. Weird. And what's really weird is well.. I can't BELIEVE Thang Luu had 1st, 1st, 2nd in O8.. Moves like Raising the Field with AQ6T? All the time. And it's not like he has superjudgment on later streets. I saw some pretty poor decisions postflop decisions as well. Dear God, can we please rerun my table? If not, let jorj95 win this so he can get even for the trip.
I hadn't expected to be off, but with lots of good players still in 10k Pot-Limit Holdem and the O-8, today's mixed Hold'em might be a good spot. Fire it up, captain.
P.S. Yay, hgfalling

WSOP Whiffing Recap
Earlier I posted this as my schedule for last week:
Thu, Jun 11 at 05:00 PM Event #25 - $2,500 Omaha & 7 Card Stud Hi / Lo
Fri, Jun 12 at 05:00 PM Event #27 - $5,000 Pot Limit Omaha Hi/Lo 8 or Better
Sun, Jun 14 at 05:00 PM Event #31 - $1,500 H.O.R.S.E
Tue, Jun 16 at 12:00 PM Event #34 - $1,500 No Limit Hold'em
Thu, Jun 18 at 12:00 PM Event #36 - $2,000 No Limit Hold'em
Thu, Jun 18 at 05:00 PM Event #37 - $10,000 7 Card Stud Hi/Lo World Championship
Sun, Jun 21 at 05:00 PM Event #42 - $2,500 8-Game Mixed Event
Event 25 - $2500 8/8: I signed up late and got a godawful table. andybloch, mgrape, Rainbow, Annie Duke. Four people who play as big or bigger than I do in what was otherwise a very soft field. For some reason the staff broke their protocol, and were seating people in the order they signed up, rather than farming them out to all the other tables. Like the 8 people after me included David Chiu, EDOGN, and a couple other very strong players. Andy protested, actually freezing the game for 15 mins (before I got there), but the floormen were unmoved by the actual procedure, which when pointed out garnered the response, "well, I don't tell you how to play your hand.." Nice. Anyway, I didn't get shit for hands. Well, I got a lot of seconds. I was out in less than 3 hours, practically the first person in the tournament. That allowed me to squeeze in:
Event 26 - $1500 Limit Holdem: I had a fantastic table. So, of course, I was out in 3 hours, about as fast as one can be. I went from 7700 to 2400 playing 75-150 in about 30 mins. To give you an example of how good my table was, we had the following hand. Tight, nervous 50ish amateur raises (I had a hand with this guy where he raised me on the river and I folded top pair w/o a second thought), flop comes As5s3h. The big blind check raises him and he just calls. Turn is the 8 of spades. Big Blind bets, he calls. River is the 3 of spades. After over a minute he calls crying, and the big blind shows like Js6s or something for the flush and he throws his hand in the muck. At this point, his neighbor points out to him that his Aces had actually made ACES FULL on the river. His hand is peeking out of the muck enough that it's clear what his two cards are and the dealer separates them and retrieves them! They are turned over face up, and he is awarded the pot. FLOOR! Floor comes over and backs up the dealer, "because the cards are retrievable." RE-FLOOR! The next level in the floorchain is called. Now, I always thought that the phrase, "The floorman's decision is final" meant that that was it and there wouldn't be an endless appeals process to avoid just this situation. Observing top-name pros, it seems that the process is actually keep appealing til you get the ruling you like. The Level Above Human floor comes over and reverses the ruling on the grounds that, "although the hand was retrievable, his neighbor told him what his hand was and he wouldn't have retrieved his hand otherwise." WTF?! That make's less sense than the original ruling. I'm sure the retrievable clause whateverTF that is has no stipulations about this kind of exception. If the guy wins the pot, he wins the pot. If his neighbor said something, he should get a penalty. But of course, no one should get a penalty for a comment AFTER THE HAND IS MUCKED. I gotz to get me a rulebook. But I don't see them for sale in the gift shop. Torturebots out in full, so I got to squeeze in:
Event #27 - $5000 Pot Limit Omaha Hi/Lo 8 or Better This might be my best game, but I was cautious about the opposition in a $5k event. I needn't be. Bad play ABOUNDED. I won a little here and there. After the forced add-on period (the 3hr mark), I get this hand on the button:
Ah Ac 3c 4h
A bunch of limpers and I make a pot sized raise and get called in two spots.
Flop is 8c 6c 9h
The pot is bet and raised to me! I get the rest in, and we're all in on a 60k pot.
The hands that called my pot sized raise?
Kc Qc Kd 4d
As 7c Td 5h
Strong.
Even though the early AT75 limper has flopped the nut straight, I'm in a massively good spot for these kind of games:
pokenum -o8 ac ah 3c 4h - kc kd qc 4d - as 7c td 5h -- 8c 6c 9h
Omaha Hi/Low 8-or-better: 666 enumerated boards containing 8c 6c 9h
cards scoop HIwin HIlos HItie LOwin LOlos LOtie EV
Ac 3c Ah 4h 244 248 418 0 445 11 0 0.577
Kc Qc Kd 4d 24 24 642 0 0 0 0 0.036
As 7c Td 5h 118 394 272 0 11 445 0 0.387
The turn is a king, which actually brings the dummy hand back to life, the river a jack (not clubs), and IGHN. Imagine a whole $5k tournament of those kind of spots.. Sigh.
So this allowed me to squeeze in:
Event 28 - $1500 NLHE. I got a little short, flopped top pair, he flopped a set. Out in one hour.
Event #31 - $1500 H.O.R.S.E I was hoping this would be like the greatest spot ever, and well, it was. I didn't win many hands and busted out spectacularly as previously noted.
This freed up my schedule for the Monday and Tuesday donkaments. Monday I never got anything going, but still squirmed about until we got to the late levels where I stole like a mofo. Ran into aces. Went home. Tuesday I had quadrupled my starting stack in half an hour, but didn't do anything thereafter for hours. Got short once we got to the post dinner rounds, and again stole like a mofo. Got my chips above shipping stack size and had the following hand. I have QQ (only time I had that either tournament) and raised the UTG limper. Flop is J93 rainbow. I make a healthy sized bet, and he calls. Turn is a jack. Check check. River is a 5 and he quickly bets several thousand and I insta-call. 55 for him. Sad thing is I'm sure he's making that bet no matter the river... I was down and then out. Crap. I did very well in these considering I played 9 hours each day never seeing AA or KK. A couple hits during the steal period and I would've been off and running. Very frustrating.
I was going to play the $10k stud-8 tournament, but Colleen had a recital on Saturday, and even though she was encouraging me to miss it by making it to a day 3, I don't think my heart would've been in it, so I came home. I'm flying back soon, and am looking forward to tonight's 8gamament. should be a good spot....

Clockwork, Thy Name is Tad Jurgens
Congratulations to Arizona's prodigal son, Tad Jurgens, for his 2nd place in this week's donkaHORSEment. Tad should probably quit for '09. He's done cashing.Prize Money 2009 2008 2007
$ 157,931 $157,148 $157,445 (Tad's Hendon Mob page)
Props to hoss_tbf for his 5th place in the $10k LHE. No shame in fifth at such a star-heavy final table. With a little more seasoning, you may still make a run for a bracelet.
And turboprops to my good buddy jorj95 for making the 2009 WSOP Payer of the Year Leaderboard.

Well, That Was a New Level of Fuqqtastickness
$1500 HORSE tournament. I'm already hurting obviously, but the quietus was quite dramatic. Playing Stud::high, I raise with an Ace up and queens down, and get called by a limper with the five of clubs. I catch a third queen and he catches an offsuit six. All the money goes in, and he has but a pair of fives(with one dead). The next card (I'm in the one seat) fills me up.

Eh? A king gives 3 ways to win (3 ways to KK on two cards), while either
the 7s or 4s again gives 3 ways to win (for 7s: 98s/84s/43s). But, you can
suck out with A or Q against the kings. So either 7s/4s was the "best" draw,
slightly. Similarly, the 9s draw was a mite better than a 6 or 3. Then again,
maybe I suck at math...

Except for the OE, these were monstrously good spots.
I'm loading up on lunch vouchers after previously averaging .333 vouchers / day.
It also occurs to me and others that my pattern of massive implosion or final table looks a lot like a Layne Flack bifurcation..
So, getting 7th was like invading Poland.
Getting 3rd and $230k was like rolling through France.
Now I'm stuck on the road to Moscow. And it's beginning to snow. And I didn't bring anything warm.
Games are good. Send long underwear.
