Tivoing to watch later. I was not aware he was playing, but am now even more interested in watching. Should be pure comedy.

Like his usual overdramatic self, Phil nearly falls out of his chair when Greenstein raises him (that was funny). He never seems to believe that SOMEONE ELSE can actually have a better hand than him. |

It's hilarious to watch these "great" poker players (really just good tournament players) get their asses handed to them in a cash game. |

I don't know if Sam Farha is really that good or I'm just seeing some luck. |

Farha is on a tear, when he needs cards he catches them. Daniel is getting his ass handed to him very nicely...I actually like his style of play normally, he keeps getting outdrawn, although betting into Brunsons FH was kind of a bone headed play...and the call to Farhas set.

Like Gus said, you're never as good as you look when you're winning and you're never as bad as you look when you're losing. |

Hey BigKyle, I won won of those Binions $5000 chips like your avatar this weekend (because I didn't bid for the others against one of you guys  so the next one for a set is mine  ) So what year was that chip used and was it used in the main event??? |

Noel, as far as I know, they were used from 1995 all the way up through 2003, the year Moneymaker won the Main Event. In the 2000 and on they started adding Bud Jones chips for the high denoms- 1k, 5k, 10k, etc., and in 2004 and 2005 they played with the brand new lines of completely unique Bud Jones that have been replicated by Chipco recently. I don't know for sure whether they were used in all events, but I know they were used in the main event. The 2003 main event was on recently and they were using the chips up through the 500 denom and the BJ chips for the 1k, 5k, 10k chips. I really want the chip from my avatar, I didn't see how much it ended up going for. It would make a bad-a$$ card cover. Congrats. |
