If you havent seen this episode yet check out pokertube.com. Im amazed how many donks keep making final tables of the world poker tour. I really need to start playing some of these events. The guy who gets 2nd place, E.G. Harvin, reminds me of the players at the $12 double shooutout satellites for the pokerstars million tourney. He calls almost every contiuation bet, limps into every pot, makes thses maniac bluffs, gives off a million tells, folds playable hands in the bb to a raise then all of a sudden defend with j-3 suited, and never folds a pair. He completely owned Mimi Tran and Mimi had position on him almost every time. This guy has so many tells and it didnt even look like Mimi tried to get a physical read when she had a decision against him. But the eventual winner, Nenad Medic, played him like a fiddle. He was getting paid off everytime he hit a hand, giving E.G. rope to hang himself, and avoiding marginal situations against him. My favorite hand is when E.G. calls a 500k bet on the river in a 1.1 million pot against Nenad with 33 on a board of Q-5-9-4-A, Classic.
There is no way somone like E.G. can make a wpt final table in Vegas. The skill level is so much higher at final tables in Vegas and the west coast. So if everything is going well after the wsop im gonna play some of the weaker wpt events.

1) 2007 GULF COAST POKER CHAMPIONSHIP (WPT)

Yeah, it is sad to say that E.G. played better than Mimi Tran.
There may be a full Moon in Biloxi in September
