WSOP Day 2 Update Thread

[joshyb20]

Good idea DB, lol. Give him SOME credit, for the moment


560 places pay out if I'm not mistaken, and there are 792 players remaining as of the last update on cardplayer. We are almost to the money, and things are heating up...

Poker Player 100
I just went back and read the post two before your last one, and your previous one (numbers 20 and 21) and can only draw the conclusion that you are refering to me in the latter. Which means one of two things; either you are a person with the mentality of a third-grader and the I.Q. of a turnip making an attempt at witty repartee, or you just are that blatantly ignorant. Either way, I feel sorry for your parents. You have been on this forum posting useless post after useless post, pretty much being ignored since you arrived. I challenge you to find one post you have made, out of the hundreds, that has potentially helped anyone with anything, especially poker. You are an absolute waste of server-space and should be deleted.

I share with the forum that I am dealing with one of the most devastating natural disasters known to man, in a home with my wife and 2 children, and you reply, "...who cares if he got hurt...as long as he gives us the updates its fine." after another member wishes me wellbeing. You are the epitome (perfect example) of a douchebag. You have contributed zero to this forum, aside from a barrage (a shitload) of useless posts riddled (filled) with grammatical errors and misspelled words. I have an 11 year-old that can write a more coherent (understandable) sentence than you. I understand you are probably some 14 year-old kid that is on mommy and daddy's internet connection and sits at home all day because he has no friends, but that is no license to be a complete asshat. Please don't reply to this in an attempt to make a witty comeback, because you will only make yourself look dumber than you already do, and I really don't want to waste anymore time on you than it took to write this post.

*edit*
I added the (parenthasis) so you could understand my post Poker Player 100.

Update
The Grinder just doubled up through Layne Flack winning a huge pot. Numbers unavailable just yet, but it should be big. Probably putting him in the top few.

The Armenian Express is eliminated.

Gavin Griffin also out.

 

[joshyb20]

Wow DB, how long did it take you to write all of that on your sidekick? I agree though, that comment was a bit uncalled for. Keep your feelings (or lack thereof) to yourself from now on pp100.



"You are the epitome (perfect example) of a douchebag." LMAO! Great stuff

 

[diabloblanco]

It took about 15 minutes on this friggin' keyboard, typing with just my thumbs. It sucked, but I had to do it while it was fresh on my mind.

 

[joshyb20]

lol, didn't want to leave out that douchebag comment! One of your better lines of late

 

[diabloblanco]

Update
As of 10:10pm PST there are 720 players remaining, 160 more eliminations and the bubble bursts. 560th place pays somewhere close to 12,500.

Yea, I wanted to make sure I didn't go to aggro and get a reprimand, but his comment was just asinine. I'm over it though, he's 12...what are ya gonna do?

Paul "Neverwin" Wolfe, lives up to his nickname and is eliminated.

Mike "the Mouth" and Fossilman on same table again? I hope so I loved watching them 2.

Hope Ivey, Lederer and Matusow lose. They all just annoy me and act like asses. Need more good guys like Doyle playing.

 

[-2222-]

I hope you are doing Ok Diablo. We had floods here 2 weeks ago (cars floating away, that kinda thing). The water in my garage was between hip and waist - pretty scary stuff and I've seen your weather on the TV...it's worse. GL to you and yours.


Anyway, good work you and joshyb20, keep em coming.

 

[diabloblanco]

Thanks for all the kind words fellas (and ladies, in the other thread). I will go ahead and continue to post these wsop updates until the winner is decided on the 15th. It will give us here at cardschat kind of a reference of our own for the main event. Anyway, ill post the final results from yesterday in the "day 3" thread with chipcounts, blind structure and number of players.

 

[jeterkid925]

I can't believe Greg Ryamer might actually win this thing.

 

[joshyb20]

Don't count on it. If history has taught us anything, you are one bad beat away from being out of it, or back into it. There are approx 570 people standing in his way. Of course he has a chance, but I wouldn't count on it.

 

[diabloblanco]

Raymer is still a long way from winning it all. He did finish the night with well over 300,000 according to cardplayer.com.

To keep it in perspective though, about 5600 players with 10,000 in chips each means that someone will have to have 56,000,000 in tournament chips before its over. Raymer is still 55,700,000 away from another bracelet.

 

[Four Dogs]

Diablo, that Douchbag post is your Magnus Opus. RammerJammer is missing some good stuff.

 

[diabloblanco]

Thanks. Glad you liked it. Can you belive that guy (PP100)? Nick banned him for that comment. And I guess its just RJ's loss, lol.

 

[JonSherwood]

Yeah, I couldn't help but wonder that guy's age...I got mad at him once for something and then I get a PM next day from him saying that we live like 20 minutes apart and how cool that is. Not that that has anything to do with age thing, but he just seems like...impenetrable. What a moron. I hated seeing posts from him around the forum, he's the kinda person you remember the name of too. Bah.

Anyway. Back on topic. Ignore my rant, haha. SO this things to be decided on the 15th, eh? The final table will be televised again I presume, but on the same day or later? I guess they'd have to edit it though and stuff...Hmmm...

These updates are coming in way handy, and that 15 minute post of yours was quite entertaining.

Jon

Well on ESPN they start showing the WSOP on the 19th so the whole thing will be over for 4 days by then. I think they said the WSOP will run through Oct on ESPN so I am thinking 10 - 12 weeks of 2 one hour episodes. Be a lot of coverage.


It should be like the last few WSOP on ESPN

Updates

The schedule is up at the WSOP site I think. Basically, they are starting with a lot of the preliminary tournaments. The final event is at least the 40th event, so they will have a lot to choose from. Ivey won a big tournament, and they will probably show the ladies tourney, especially since Jennifer Tilly won it. From what I hear, the final event won't run until October.
