The legend that is Mr Tony Kendall will be providing the glamour (I'll be providing the Poker intellect obv for tonight's MAHOOSIVE £15,000 gtd Primo!
Super sats are running.. direct buy-in's are occurring and Chirpychip is probably already at his television awaiting the start of the show.. it's9pm btw!!
There will be hand analyses (Don't forget to post your hand ids along with relevant info), Poker clinic and a wee chinwag with Mr James Hartigan live and direct from Las Vegas with all the information and updates from the November Nine.. We'll also have some more SPT Blackpool footage for you to feast your eyes upon!
Grumpy may even give sport prize or two...
So what with the WSOP being down to the final two HU.. Mr Jonathan Duhamel and Mr John Racener.. My show thread and potential prize question for you is:
If you you had to be HU with one of these two which would it be and how would you go about playing them based on how you perceive them to play.. Including style of play, table image etc??
Suffered a J Hartigan indignation earlier tonight, I had to go for my dinner in the middle of the Facebook freeroll, shoved all-in twice and got 5x, went for my dinner, came back still with 18k.
Either one for me, I vary my play on tables, love to overbet with big pairs, but with the odd call with therm, so would probably do the same HU, and of course TAKE IT DOWN WIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIII
car crash hand.....i'm out in 15 mins lol shorty shoved with 710...called by big stack...i shove with aa...big stack calls with kq off and hits str on river.... ooops xx Posted by TRIP5
Really unlucky Irene - if you had most of your stack when he calls you with KQ, I doubt he'll be a big stack for too long!
I'd like to go up against Duhamel as I like to be the underdog (never great when I'm leading!) and with a name like RACEner I wouldn't like to be in one with him all in.
'Limping' in to the final with only 31 million chips smells of laddering plus big respect to Duhamel for going all in on a 170 million chip pot. As Ali G says - 'RESTECP!'
If I won against him as well I could run off shouting 'Blame Canada!' at the top of my voice.

btw would it be possible to show this hand Hand History #305657384
Over the last few weeks i've been working on my bet sizing it was early on in tourney my question is should i have bet more pre-flop / flop & turn as i think i bet right amounts but best to check also didn't understand villians call when i raised on turn many thanks Michael
I'd want to play Duhamel. He needs a beating purly for the smug look on his face when he got lucky and binked with jacks against aces to bust Matt Affleck.
I don't think his call of the all-in was terrible but the look on his face as Affleck started crying is unforgivable.
Not that i would have a snowballs chance in taking him down a peg lol.
Redmond (and the show in general) last night was a good watch, he's remarkably calm and collected (a good poker player trait I guess!)
For those of us happy to acknowledge they've still got loads to learn, I really appreciated that late hand shown on Top of the Pots where he talked us through why he did what he did. It makes it easy to relate and work out where you might have gone wrong in similar situations, or where you could do more.
Regarding to Christmas Presents without necessary parts. I had a chocolate maker factory thing that came without the chocolate that was supposed to come with it. Needless to say, I improvised with much other gained chocolate though so wasn't a major problem :P

Just went out - can I ask your opinion if I made a bad decision? I guess I should've played it safe.
