wsop final table sweat thread ***spoilers obv**

[jojobinks]

is no one watching?

every big hand i've read about with moon indicates my predictions are right...he doesn't have a great grip on hand values and is going to get murdered shorthanded. saout is mixing it up, as is cada. ivey isn't getting much action, and of course it's hard to tell whether that's been good or bad for him b/c he's either been raise/taking it or else getting moved off hands to 3bets pre.

begs is similar to moon imo. he's better at pretending he knows how to play, but i feel like he's primed to gift off a buncha chips. he's been squeezed out of pots preflop a couple times that i've seen, and i think the internet guys have targeted him as flatting too loosely and tending to fold to 3bets.

i'm excited for the kids to get to bed so i can put on the full sweat overnight. anyone else out there?

also, buchman or ivey ftw. if ivey doubles up one freakin time i think he becomes no worse than a 3:2 dog.

Yeah, I'm following along now. My three horses are still in it (bet with Trevor that Shulman, Begs, or Buchman win).

What is the deal with aces? Crack city!

[AlbinoDragon]

I'm listening too.

I'm also making notes of the hands I want to see make it to TV. They are, so far:

hand 44 - Akenhead's all-in with two callers.
hand 45 - Saout's AI vs. Moon
hand 55 - Ivey AI v. Akenhead where A. folded
hand 90 - The big one! Moon'd fold against Begleiter AI (only 6 mil. behind).
hand 92 - Ivey v/ Schulman with Ivey AI

Sickest cooler ever for Schaffel v. Buchman. What a time huh.

[BigKyle]

Is Saout getting hit with the deck or playing better than the others. He has made a huge climb in the stacks.

[ipgyst]

Seat 1: Darvin Moon 41.3 mil (down 17.7 mil)
Seat 2: James Akenhead eliminated (down 6.8 mil)
Seat 3: Phil Ivey 14.9 mil (up 5.1 mil)
Seat 4: Kevin Schaffel eliminated (down 12.4 mil)
Seat 5: Steven Begleiter 38.1 mil (up 8.2 mil)
Seat 6: Eric Buchman 54.7 mil (up 19.9 mil)
Seat 7: Joseph Cada 10.7 mil (down 2.5 mil)
Seat 8: Antoine Saout 28.7 mil (up 19.2 mil)
Seat 9: Jeff Shulman 7.2 mil (down 12.4 mil)

Ivey's a small stack, but he's going the right direction. Moon and Shulman are hemorrhaging chips. I think I'll be up for a while tonight.

I just opened the link posted for the Bluff audio. Does that just start at the beginning, because no one is eliminated yet in the coverage I'm listening to. Interesting either way, though.
