Roligt med tanke på att Barry Greenstein har en fint citat i boken "Teh banker, the professor and the suicide king" då han säger efter att ha spelat mot Beal: "Jag tror att vi har mycket mindre edge än vad vi trodde från början, kanske är vi bara 2-1 favoriter."

Den är faktiskt ganska lättläst också, även om den känns lite lång om man är ovan att läsa på engelska... Framför allt intressant!

Negreanu har skrivit lite i sin senaste blog:

 

The topic of conversation for the evening was pretty consistent. People were discussing Andy Beal's return to Vegas. Who should play, who shouldn't play, how to play him, how not to play him, etc.

 

Frankly, much of the conversation surprised me. I am not part of the corporation, because I'm just not comfortable putting my money on other people. Especially when I don't know who'd be playing him. Some of the high limit players not only suck at limit hold'em, but have little to no experience playing heads up.

 

Rather than invest $500,000 in the corporation, I'd much prefer playing Andy for $1,000,000 all by myself. I've been playing a fair amount of heads up limit hold'em recently, and frankly, I just think that I'd be so much more fundamentally sound than he is that he couldn‘t overcome it.

 

I also feel like I know the correct approach to beating him. I think a guy like Joe Cassidy or Erik123 would make short work of him since they have so much experience playing the game heads up online.

 

As for some of the others, if they don't practice playing a lot of heads up limit hold'em online they'd start out lacking the necessary feel that you just have to have in order to be at your best.

 

Having said that, it appears as though the corp. is going with the A-Team, using Todd Brunson and Jennifer Harman for the most part. Ted Forrest makes up the third leg of that group and apparently has had a good amount of success against him.

 

What I find interesting, is that Andy feels as though raising the stakes may take the corp. out of their comfort zone. What he fails to realize, is that the corp. isn't really playing that high at all. No one is risking more than $500,000 which is less than they would be risking playing $4000-$8000 on their own.

 

The only pressure the players would face is having to deal with the criticisms from the rest of the group if they were to lose to Andy. There just isn't much incentive for somebody to want to wake up at 9:00am, play a full day, and 1) get paid no more than someone who slept all day if you win, and 2) have to deal with all of the second guessers if you lose.

 

Personally, if I had a spare $10 million lying around I wouldn't invest it in the corporation. Instead, I'd sit right down and try to bust them both!

Andy Beal är tillbaka och har tydligen klått Jennifer Harman för fem miljoner dollar idag. Enligt ryktet kommer Bruson spela imorgon. Doyle, inte Todd, som tydligen är way för morgontrött för att kunna fungera normalt innan sen eftermiddag. Dock skrev Todd Bruson att han kommer att spela imorgon, så viss förvirring råder.

 

Todd Brunson skrev en kommentar ang varför inte Howard Lederer spelat något här. Och även ett inlägg på 2+2. Kuriosa: Todds location är angiven som "Certified Badass".

 

Information om hur det går verkar finnas på Bluff Magazines forum där viss pseudo-liverapportering sker. Och typ varenda forum på 2+2 har en tråd om det...

Andy Beal fortsätter att vinna pengar från the corporation:

 

So, yes a lot of what has been written or heard about today did and didnt happen. No Doyle Brunson did not step up and play in the wee hours of the morning at the Wynn. Instead, Todd, who, posted on 2+2 that he was up from the previous night took the seat across from Andy for a 9AM start. I dont have much detail on the atmosphere of the game, but Todd seemed to have control of the match from the onset from what i have heard. I am told at one point, Todd had won a rack back for the corporation (2.5 million). The comeback, however was short lived. Andy, in the latter parts of the day erased the day's deficit and took a lead of his own. It was not quite the 5 million dollars that he had won the previous day, but he did manage to pull ahead for the day by about 2 stacks of 25K chips, or roughly 1 million dollars. That added with his big day on Sunday, puts his total for the week at 6 million, and total for 2 weeks at up about 3 million dollars. Not too shabby!!

 

Han ska spela mot Ted Forrest idag.

Undrar om The Wynn tar ut någon rake... :lol:

 

Räjken är ju inte direkt ärkehög på sådanan nivåer, särskilt inte HU. Såg en hajstäjks HH från Nohend vs Tina1, potten slutade på ca €10.000. Räjken blev €0.75...

Many asked how the dealers were tipped. The winner agreed to pay them $100 per half hour down. The time was $100 per hour. In addition although there was no agreement I tipped the floor $3,000 and the cage $750 on behalf of the corp.

Från 2+2:

Well Andy is on a roll. I had him down 2.5 million with an hour to go. He came back and won 1.2. He did it too Ted yesterday even worse. Ted was up 7 million with two hours to go, but Andy got even.

Beal is one tuff dude.

Då var det slut för denna gången, tydligen...

 

Day 1 Andy vs. Jennifer = Andy +$5 million

Day 2 Andy vs. Todd = Andy +$1.5 million

Day 3 Andy vs. Ted = Andy =+$3.5 million

Game Over. Pros lose $10 million. Andy heading home with 10mil. Pros tail between their legs.
