2024 World Series of Poker May 28th to July 17th ***No Spoilers***
The 2024 WSOP will take place at Horseshoe Las Vegas and Paris Las Vegas from May 28 to July 17, 2024, with the Main Event running from July 3 to July 17. The Main Event – poker’s undisputed freezeout world championship – will have four starting days, beginning on Wednesday, July 3. Players may also register directly on Day 2.
Such a shame they're not streaming on the off day. The 3K midstakes championship FT has been fun.
Rooting for my old poker buddy Adam Owen battling with Torelli with 5 left.
Day 8 did Infact ending early last night btw. We only got like 1 hour of the night shift which is pretty sad.
We really didn’t get a whole lot of Nick-Ali this year. They didn’t start until Day 5 and Day 8 was super short.
Going to be a chore to have to listen to the other crew for the whole final table.
I guess the last 14 WSOPs that hes bombed at were something compared to the SCOOP
kinda annoying seeing this stupid take repeated everywhere since he made the FT
He really just ICM is for poor people'd the main event final table huh. Goat
Lena and Kim probably the most hungry for the bracelet, for the other guys the money might might mean a lot more. Lena one of the biggest mtt winners online and Brian playing the Tritons so they both should be loaded.
Intresting to see if they come up with some exploits and risky plays going for the win.
Man, thats an oldie and brings back memories of when I first discovered poker.
The announcer is Michael Konik who did a lot of stories in[U] Cigar Aficionado about gambling and ...that drew me in to the game (Stories still online and linked). He also wrote The Man with $100,000 Breasts and Other Gambling Stories thats a fun read.
I miss those days of wild eyed wonder before there was much information about the game and characters like Tony G were rampant.
No streams at tonight? Even if it’s no hole cards and just an overhead camera?

playing Tritons does not mean 'loaded'. Most likely means 'backed'..
I'd also think if we asked all 9 of them if they'd prefer the $10m or the win, they'd all take the $$. Albeit I think it was Pads who tweeted that Espen made $7m in sponsorship off his ME win from two years ago. Which surprised me but he has no reason to lie.
rambling loosely related thoughts though...given most won't have a giant % of themselves, given the Espen sponsorship $$, actually the event win is worth more $$ than the prize money given they'd keep all the sponsorship $$ but only the % of the prize money that they own action for

Anyone who says they'd take the win over the money is full of ****.
That still doesn't mean it's for sale on the dark web. When Fly By Night Cheap Checks gets hacked, it will be. Probably cross-referenced with my social, phone number, email, etc. You can do a lot of damage with that combo.
All that was added to the dark web is one account number. They can do nearly all that same damage wo that information. Your account number never was secret, never intended to be. It was literally a process designed for that number to be shared. It doesn’t work if the account number is not shared.
Btw, some company you do or did business was probably already hacked and they had this info. So it probably already is on the dark web.

Yeah in the end as expected day 8 was the short day. Totally get the need to have an extra day with the event expanding, and the rest day afterwards but I do miss the 27 to 9 day, and think that should be retained.

So what's to stop someone from creating some investment account, giving my name, SS# account # and routing #, and draining my bank account into their account?
Honestly asking. I feel like there has to be some other verification step in there right?

Or they could have at least done 23 to 9 and had two late days instead of one super late day and one short day.
Pudge from the top rope!
DrKamikaze already solved the Krissy punt with ICM calculations on twitter. Its should be just a fold, the jam is torching, calling would be close to 0 but she has the worst suit combo and in reality its worse to continue than in GTOland.
Bencb defending the play saying it was actually good and AQ would 100% fold even tho its a great price for Serock and she seems to be uncomfortable on the spot while Serock might be getting a light read on her. Bencb trying to get the approval of the poker women after tweeting out the truth about skill cap of women vs men. Pathetic lol.
I mean in theory her ONLY value hand is the nuts, with ICM you dont want to raise 2p or set like you would in chipEV. So Serock was basically bluffcatching with 4 outs to the nuts as backup but he did not even have to think about it after her Jam, being in the biggest spot of his life so far with no time limits. Just snapped lol.
Hot take:
Shiina Nakamoto is better MTT player than Krissy Foxen.

What? For what? I havent seen him in anything sponsor related. If hes been paid 7m you would suppose someone like me who follows poker in literally every big media all year round would have noticed. Seems a huge waste of 7m for whoever paid that if true.
At most I can remember a patch in some Triton event... 7m for that? Lol
As terribly inexcusable as Foxen’s shove was, it’s Moneymaker’s bluff compared to the British kid who fell in love with T2 at the FT a few years ago.
Foxen has balls. Huge respect for that move. Punt or not. QQ guy could learn a thing or two.
Lena will get this done. Would be fun if he beats Kim hu.
Take: If you have a top three stack at the last two tables of the ME, turning into Stupak’s daughter until it’s five-handed isn’t the worst move.
Foxen had soooooo much $EV waiting for her just for being the first woman to make the final table in 29 years. You have to add that in to the equation of deciding whether or not to run that kamikaze bluff.
