I haven't watched much of this one, but I really enjoy watching these events at the end. The final tables are top notch play.

I'm mad at myself for not registering for the heads up tourney in time. I was debating on whether or not to play it in, not thinking that it would fill up (duh), and before I knew it, it was too late...

6 max PLHE on Wednesday will be my next event. I'm really looking forward to that one

I can't believe that other dude called all in with just a weak flush draw when the short stack guy had less than one orbit left in him. Terrible terrible play, IMO.

I mean, I'm not reading this wrong or anything here, am I? This was just a terrible, terrible call, right Omaha guys? Geoff?

Here was the hand:

PokerStars Game #2510466764: Tournament #10017948, Omaha Pot Limit - Level XXI (15000/30000) - 2005/09/06 - 02:43:25 (ET)

Default yikes

the short stack didnt want to do a 3 way deal by chip size because the big stack would get more then 1st prize.

they played out until top 2 and split 50/50 and are playing for the braclet and 10k.

each gets about 95k garantee.

Actually, Lee Jones is now saying he made a mistake in his calculations, forgetting to take out the 3rd place money from the prize pool. I figured that's how he calculated it, but thought they were jsut using some stupid formula.

Had he done it right, I'll bet they would have taken the deal.

There was a live audio broadcast of the Omaha event last night. It was really good listening....

Hey, do me a favor and scroll up to the HH I posted and tell me if that call was as terrible as it looks to me, or if I'm missing something. This was PLO, btw.

That was a REALLY bad call. He did have a draw but even heads u there was too much of a chance he was dominated (worst case being a Kx in suit). As it turned out he did have outs to the flush, but even then that is a big gamble at a final table when every place increases the payouts.

IMO, the raise preflop was a pretty bad move with the same logic. He was out of position with a hand you really want to see a cheap flop with (as it will either hit or leave you with nothing). The big raise "almost" commits him and he should have a pretty good idea that millions will call with any reasonable hand and may get all the chips in preflop with anything better than average.

My guess is that there wasn't much limping going on with millions in such a chip lead?
