WSOP - $2500 6 max...

[Talking Poker]

This is one of the events I was hoping to play in this year. Maybe next year.

They are down to nine players left:
Chip leader - Daniel Negreanu
Also still alive and kicking - Dutch Boyd and Joe Hachem.

Good stuff.

Correction: Eight playrs left and Boyd just took the chip lead:

I probably not even in the top 10 most knowledgable people logged on right now, but couldn't Daniel have gotten away from those Aces the way the hand played out?

I'm rooting for Dutch, but Hachem will be tough in this scenario, real tough.

[Boobie Lover]

Anyone that roots for Mr. Boyd loses respect with me.

hachem aint doing bad.

Nice job there by the champ. Didnt think he was as good as raymer, but everyone is better than moneymaker. Prove me wrong joe

At the risk of this thread getting ugly, I'll respond by saying I respect your stance on that issue.

I have spoken with Dutch in the past, gotten advice from him on poker as well as other things, and see his side of the PokerSpot issue.

I was not one of the people who got screwed in the deal, perhaps if I had then my opinion would be tilted a bit.

There is more to Dutch than just that one issue.

I am sure if you were on the rail rooting for Dutch to bust you would not be alone, probably in a long line.
