WSOP 2009: The bloopers
 Razz, yes but in moderation A story that
could very well have been included in our bloopers if it had been a less
happy outcome was the discomfort of John Cernuto in trial 44 Razz.
Invited to the hospital, the player could finally resume normal
competition a few days later. But where is the real curiosity is that
the case follows the same type of misadventure for Eskimo Clark in 2007
in an event Razz, already! Unlike the latter had refused to be taken for
treatment. To end up believing Hold'em has found his master in an
unlikely emotions. It does not actually hit Andy Bloch!
Originally a case of marked cards during the WSOP in 2009 (Bloch drew
attention to a suspicious playing, photo later circulated on the
Internet in support), Andrew Bloch was also seen complaining of a Mower (the
plastic that is put under the package so that no one can inadvertently
see the last card) ... transparent. That his opponents beware, the
cowboy has a definite eye, and the good. A call of Groland?
Protocol of hymns dedicated to the winners has sometimes been some
hiccups. After misallocation Ville Wahlbeck imposed on his victory in
Event 45 John Kabbaj it been entitled God Save the Queen (so far, so
good for the English player) ... Sex Pistols version. In the absence of
French victory, the Marseillaise was perhaps finally escape. Déjà
vu 2009 will go down in WSOP history as the year of performance republished. 14
winners of this year had in fact already a bracelet on their wrist. And
for the first time in 40 years, four players have managed to clinch at
least two bracelets in the same edition: Phil Ivey
(events 8 and 25), Brock Parker (events 14 and 19), Jeff Lisandro (16
events , 37 and 44), Greg Mueller (events 33 and 50). Devil
Vauvert The adage "one chip one flesh", whereby a chip is
sufficient to survive and even go all the way, is true more often than
we think. And even though Scott Richey has not defeated in the Event 51,
its resurgence is to rank the most beautiful during the Series. Time
fell to 75 coins, the U.S. really thought his last hour had come when
his last money found themselves opposed to a pair of AA and a pair of
KK. Miracle of poker, Richey saw himself finally cracked the top two
starting hands of Hold'em, before moving this "triple up" by some new
carpets earned, and finally end up back ... 8000 chips! I do it on
purpose Among the stories of players who managed great things
before admitting that they will not play or that their relatives had
forced the hand of David Halpern in the Event 53 is worth his weight in
peanut. Two days earlier the U.S. had gone to Rio to play some cash
games. Alas, the table of Pot-Limit Omaha showed a waiting list. Reluctantly, Halpern finally
decided to enroll in this trial of 7-Stud Hi-Lo $ 1,500. The story you
probably know already: the man finally clinch the tournament! |
