Yeah, even though some of his plays were questionable last year, i really liked Darvin Moon for being humble, gracious and not trying to be anything that he wasn't. He freely admitted that he got lucky numerous times, and that he had to against players that are clearly better than him. I admired that.

A similar attitude from Dennis Phillips has meant that he has become pretty respected and has had some decent results.

im finding myself barracking for him

It's Moon Time!
Posted < 1 min. by thkcduckworth

Facing a limp from middle position and a completion from the small blind, Darvin Moon checked his option in the big blind to see a flop of [6d] [3d] [8s] fall.

Both the blinds checked to the open-limper who fired out 475 with both the small blind and Moon calling.

The turn of the [th] was checked through to see the [4c] land on the river and the small blind followed it by firing out a bet of 1,250.

Moon made the call and the open-limper folded to see Moon table his [4s] [3c] to collect the pot and move to 49,450 in chips.

Cannot see any of the 888pl guys still in :(

The list of remaining players from group 2a ( which was the players who were still in from group 1a and 1c) that seemed accurate earlier but is now all over the shop so unsure of the highest ranking Aussies.I can confirm Tiffany Michelle is out which may not be great for the guys but has really made my day.

Tyrone Krost is playing today in group 2b.

Just heard an great day 2a story on ESPN radio involving Chris money maker.

This happened last hand before the dinner break.

Aparently he raised on the river then sat patiently waiting for his opponents decision, after 15minutes of the dinner break had elapsed he anounced that he never calls the clock but he needed to eat, to which the opponent replied
" mate i went all in i was waiting on you"

strangely no one heard the all in call including the dealer and the ESPN camera crew that was presnent.

For the results orientated, moneymaker sigh called with top 2 and the opponent insta mucked

Pretty patient from both player
Does anyone know how to make money playing uno vs 6 year olds, its about the only card game i get to play these days.

How the hell is Aristadou still in? I really don't like that guy.

Also, Jeff Fenech on 66k? He must be avoiding the red wine over there.

Why don't you like Pete? He is a nice guy and never causes an issue at the tables.
