WSOP - $50k H.O.R.S.E. Tourney

I might go with the later....they seem to be a little confused with the wordings in the different events. Just a few below:

Tuan Le Scoops a Pot (Limit Hold'em)....you don't scoop pots in limit HE

Daniel Negreanu Takes another Pot (Stud)
After minimum bets through seventh street....what other type of bets do you make in a limit game?

GANK Hand: Outside of a cash game I am not sure why you wouldn't keep betting here. No rake you have the nut and if there is even a CHANCE that they have a lower FH get as much in as you can.

I don't buy it.

First, I could see someone saying "scoop" just to refer to winning a pot. Maybe not, but it doesn't seem too weird to me.

Daniel's hand, they said "modest" betting. Which I took to mean there was action but just modest action. No raises, etc.

I don't think problems with wording are the same as the difference between calling and going back and forth with raises with the nuts.

I'm leaning toward it being a CardPlayer typo/error as well. I just read an update that had a flop, a river, and then another river.

They are doing the best they can, but under the circumstances, they aren't going to get everything exactly right. When I was in Aruba and read their recaps from my table later on, they had made a number of significant errors, both in what hole cards people had, who raised preflop, etc. Like I said, it's to be expected under the circumstances, but take it with a grain of salt.

I got those from Pokerwire not Cardplayer so there might PW may have been paraphrasing. None of those were to critical I just noticed them as I was reading through it and thought it was likely due to people writing them who usually only write about HE. Who knows.

It is amazing that they can keep up with all this information at all though. No sincere criticism of the update sites was intended.

I'm not criticising either, but they should at least fix their BIG errors... like this one:

Um.... yeah. I don't think so.

My roommate's response to how the casino is handling the marked cards issue and player responses:

'At a $50,000 buyin, the only thing they should be worried about is if someone drops trou and shits on the felt.'

[GTDawg]

I'd punch the floorman in the face if he responded that way in a 50k buy-in tournament.

that is just unacceptable

[Talking Poker]

That would probably add another 10 minutes to your penaltly.

It's more relieving that cursing about the marked cards. I mean, c'mon...marked cards in a WSOP event
