JR Bellande? This kid's a fuckin nerd. LOL.

He's good. Nice read on the AK.

Not like he was folding, but nice read.

I second that, some of the things he says sounds like he is reading out of a poker book or something. " I had the best hand when the money went in the pot" after hitting runner runner to make flush. Only watched 1st hour of it, have to go pick up my car.

I thought he was annoying. That said, I realize that kind of table presence works well for some people.

I have to admit I'd chuckle when he's tell people "Nice laydown!" and point at them after they folded to a bluff...

[Talking Poker]

This was a $10,000 buy in WSOP Circuit Event from earlier this year. This particular event was the one from the Rio:

[JDMcNugent7]

What's the difference between the Circuit event and the Main event?

[Talking Poker]

I'm not really sure how to answer that. It's kinda like asking what's the difference between the Party Poker Million and their weekly $350k guaranteed tourneys. All are big tourneys, but the Party Poker Million is the Party Poker Million.

Here are this coming year's events:


The Main Event will be one of 45ish Events hald during the "2006 WSOP at Rio."

Cicuit events qualify players to the TOC....Main event final table does too...

[PShabi]

Yeah, that was great.

From what I've read about him, he wasn't drumming it up for ESPN either. He plays like that all the time. I don't know, I just like what it does for him.

I also read some of his recent tournament finishes and they were pretty damn impressive.
