Who Ever Said Poker Was A Skill Game?

It has officially become the night of the underdog as we go through this final table. After Derick's sickening bad beats, we find Ira of the Bangkok crew all in on the turn with a board of K-9-9-T holding K-T. Opponent shows 8-9 off for trips on the flop, and it's looking bad for Ira.

The miracle Ten on the turn says otherwise and Ira doubles up through the big stack!

Intense action. Come over and watch if you can!

Quote of the Day

  • The best poker I've ever played has always entailed peace. A relaxed comfort. Eyes open, ears open, radar up. Absorbing my opponent's every message. Taking them as they come. Not mixing what those messages are with what I want them to be. It's like an aerial view. A view from above the myriad luck-dependent reactions of those many people who never gain such a peace. And when you gain that view, that peace - when you'd rather have the truth, no matter how disappointing, over a false hope, no matter how desirable - then you're a player. The hand you're on slips into a stream of thousands of other hands, no one of which, because of your lofty view, seems unduly important, no false fearful emotions rise within you. When you gain the peace of lofty perspective, you're a player, and when you're a player, you're free.- from "King of a Small World" by Rick Benett
