    Love this time of year re Wsop.

    Useless fact of the thread - Re Greg Raymer, in the 2010 main event he bust on day 2, walking out with a star struck Tomgoodun who did the same 😊

    Over at Bellagio in the cash games, seems like Matt Berkey had a good night.

    Anyone care to guess how much he has in front of him? (PS - I don't know the answer).






    Looks like around 400K if as it seems they are 40 stacks

    This was over at Venetian, but a perfect example of how PLO8 pots can get real messy...

    Fair play to that dealer B) they never get enough credit anywhere! Its a horribly tough job, and one as players we never respect enough. Every player should be made deal for 12 hours at least once a month - I dealt at a few smaller games, and boy do u need the patience of a saint!

    We had a little PLO8 game at Killarney one year and could only find one dealer that could sort it and there where quite a few there :D

    @JammyFker


    Makes my blood boil when I see players berating Dealers. The players are splashing thousands around, & the Dealers are on minimum pay & zero hours contracts.

    Meh.

    In the $1,500 Omaha 8 or Better, here's a blast from the past, Sammy Fahra.

    In the same event (he's actually a very good Stud player) is arguably the best poker commentator of his generation, Norman Chad.

    Never mind Aces for the High, is the Emergency Low any good?

    Then he says "you'll never guess what I folded". (Always a super dumb thing to say).

    Organising the WSOP must be a nightmare. Look at how many Dealers Shirts they have to have, & they need the right sizes for all the Dealers.

    "bagging" at the end of a day's play might just be the greatest feeling in poker.

    Here's the GREAT MAN himself, Allan Kessler, aka Chainsaw.


    I might just post all his tweets as the Series progresses & do it on a separate thread. Like him or loathe him (there's no in-between) he is some character...




    @Summers119 had Kessler on his Colossus table last year - even got some salt on Twitter after Kessler doubled him :smiley:
