Must say it annoys me greatly that the commentators basically refuse to criticise any of the players in this broadcast. Xiao made a fairly bad river bet followed by a complete spew with 10s and they say nothing at all. Can't think of another sport where that would happen.

yes it's really awful not knowing your opponent has a flush or aces like you did
The "anyone can win" marketing lure of the Main diminishes if you emphasize people punting and making mistakes.
When they interview first-timers, it is always the guy making the dream day 6 run and never the guy dusting off 300 BB in the first hour with KK.

She's a complete amateur who's not studied at all compared to the rest of the table. I am definitely going easy on her if I am on commentary. She's also playing way less scared than a lot of people would be in this spot so fair play to her imo.

I think the T2 spot is a fine lead. The SPR is small enough that check/folding is pretty unreasonable so might as well get try and get the max from overpairs and other non-believing hands. The TT hand wasn't great. When the guy flats 1/3 of his stack pre, alarm bells have to be going off. But as already said, there's not a need or benefit to trashing the play of an amateur.
low key savagery from Lena in the bb facing the Krissy 3 bet. Not the stuff that makes youtube clips but great poker and it shows how he feels about his edge
While there are quite a few really strong players left in the field, I'm thinking this is Lena900's tournament to win.

it's also not bad, hand 1 she has a disguised 2 and hand 2 her opponent has less than a pot size bet after the flop I know hand 2 looks strong but you gonna check fold?

Feels similar to 2019 when Sam Greenwood got rivered by Timtohty Su for a massive chip lead pot around this same point of the tournament. If he wins that, he would have been a big favorite to win. This year, the reverse happened, the top pro flushes the amateur on the river.
Lena is quite obviously the favorite to win. But its tournament poker, so anything could happen, he could bust in 2-3 hands like Mateos if the cards fall the wrong way.

Yep. Plus there are a few way bigger stacks on the other tables right now. A couple above 40 million now, including Coelho who is a serious player with big EPT titles.
yep, she played the 2 hand just fine.
The start of day chip leader going out before the second break of the day is crazy.
In non-Main news, Jeremy Ausmus has made the final table in the $3k HORSE with a chance to pass Scott Seiver in POY.
Imagine winning 3 bracelets and not being POY. It could happen.
Why they move Lena900 off the feature ��
It's simply considered good etiquette by the organizers to cycle through tables and not keep the same person on the feature table all too much, If it was only Lena being moved off he probably just got randomized off?
Yeah, I know. I just want to see the legend play hands with hole cards shown. Not as interested in watching amateurs punt.
That table is the next one to be broken, also Foxen has been on feature for two straight days now. They have to rotate it a little bit.
there's going to be 4 tables left soon he'll be back, it's ok to give some other people air time. They've done a pretty good job of rotating so someone isn't stuck literally the whole tournament but foxen's been on a bunch lately as noted above
cantu eliminated??? HE WAS MY PICK TO WIN IT ALL
now *that* is playing really, really bad
Cantu finally busted!
