2026 World Series of Poker May 26th - July 15th
Nah you want Trayner out, it's not easy to run over a 10 handed table without the deck.
We could still see a similar spot where CL wants to keep tension, but not there imo...
Gagliano and Boos have good seats if you want to bet a sleeper, nits to their left, CL to right. Idk enough about Sasskihlati.
I'm sure it's been mentioned that three week break probably helps Mueller the most and could well hurt Lula the most
There is a clip of helmuth eating a burrito from the side if that makes sense instead of long ways, there also several other clips of him eating sandwiches and what not in non standard ways. Google it if you dare
Ok now i get what you are describing and also cant get the disgusting image of Phil just housing a sweaty ham sandwich out of my mind..
But since its Subway wouldn't it already be cut in half which would make Phil have to be holding one end of the sandwich that has a normal end/nub and one end is just toppings/meat/sauces hanging out and no "end" part lol?
Most interest i've ever had in Phil in my entire life lol
Current standings but Paradise Tournaments in december count, so won't know winner until then
Oh, thanks a lot—I hadn't seen this table. Shaun Deeb is a legend, for sure.
Does anyone know where I can find a list of the online bracelet event results for this year?
https://www.wsoponline.com/nv/promotions... has the 30 winner's names from the first WSOP Online festival but no prizes or any other details.
I don't like these shot clocks and time banks. It's the biggest tournament on the biggest stage. You need an appropriate amount of time to make a life changing decision.
These were so long overdue.
Sitting there with a dumb look on your face refusing to act should not be rewarded. That's not a poker skill.
The best part about them adding these it's that it's the race to the bottom type of players who complain the most.

Agreed with most of this. I think most of the complaints are that it was added late in the tournament without notice.
I also think 20 seconds pre is a little on the quick side when facing action and deciding 3b/call/fold. Would like to see pre flop changed to 30 seconds, I could even see post flop being 45 seconds.
20 seconds pre is too long 95% of the time and too short sometimes. Just got to look at your hand right away and start to think about what you'll do before it's on you
The thing about that I've noticed is some players won't look at their cards before the action gets to them in order to not give away tells. I started to do this later on in the main when I got more of the hang of things and wouldn't slow things down. It also makes me feel more free to be talkative without accidently giving something away.
With online I think you get about 15 seconds before a timebank is activated. I think with live there is a bit more information and you also have to manually count chip stacks so I feel like a bit more time is a good idea.
The fact that you can stall on your turn to increase your EV is a somewhat broken element of MTTs and shot clocks with time banks are the best way to counteract that.
Intuitively I think I'm more likely to give tells if I initially look at my cards while everyone is looking at me waiting for me to act.
If I can sneak a peek at them after they are dealt out while everyone else is looking at their own cards, or looking at the person who is to act, it feels better.
In other words, I feel I'm more likely to give tells while looking at my cards, rather than after having looked at them.
It's a heuristic for me at this point to at first slightly downgrade players who wait to look at their cards when the action finally gets to them, then make mental adjustments for the exceptions later.
Excited for this one

That might work for you. But for most players, it is a mistake to look early. It isn't that hard to hide tells when you know we are all watching you. But when you look early, and see crap cards you are going to fold regardless of the action, it is hard to hide your indifference. Many players who look early regularly display tells that they are interested in the action as it approaches them, or just don't care, because they are folding anyway. Especially when somebody on your right is taking extra time, it can be really hard to hide your indifference.

Why would you wait until everyone is staring at you to look at your cards? wouldn't it make more sense to look before it gets to you?

Is this only available on sirius? Trying to find on my podcast player. Maybe will be available on delayed release.

I guess my counter is that if it's not hard to hide tells, it shouldn't be hard to hide indifference or interest.
Its an absolute joke that the leader of the "Player of the year" has 122 bullets fired and 6 cashes. Its a pathetic competition that only rewards volume.

My math tells that is cashing 5%. Shouldn't an average player cash more than 10%? Could of course be playing style, going deep or bust. And re-entries complicate it.

it's not volume it's top x finishes which is why deeb is employing the go big or go home strategy prior to the money. If you look at the list, he doesn't actually have enough solid finishes that any thing he gets he'll gain points, meanwhile kihara has to knock off a 40 pointer to gain so he needs some deep run.
deeb probably got shorted with his main run, would've done better with anything else top like 5 that was going on at the same time.
for Deeb, it doesn't make any sense to play the Main

That's my thought too.
When everyone waits for "their turn" it slows things down, especially seems like a lot of people have a "routine" to try not to give off tells.
should be simple. Quickly glance at cards when dealt. Hand on cards, watch action, act in turn.
