As mentioned below, Tom is doing rather well in the WPT Championship after Day 2. (This could be the tournament my fantasy team needs! Don\’t let me down, guys, I got $20 riding on your results!)
Here is some plausibly interesting raw audio of my two Beyond the Table cohorts recapping Day 1 — with intense, hardcore hand histories to boot:
Highlights below:
0:55 — Tom vs. Cyndi Violette, Ralph Perry, Alan Goehring, and Dustin \”Neverwin\” Woolf
1:40 — Tom fails to maximize a monster boat against a smaller boat against Goehring
4:10 — Tom on Woolf\’s sharpness — losing as little as possible with \”top-top\” vs. Tom\’s set of deuces
7:10 — Goehring\’s min-raise strategy ==> implosion
8:30 — WPT structure: 5 levels of play = Yea!
9:15 — Anna Wroblewski, chip leader, pulls the cute-pretend-drunk-girl-spilling-a-beer trick to flop a flush and triple up
10:00 — Brandi Hawbaker flopping 10 sets at Tom\’s table (in a previous event) to finish 36th
11:20 — \”We love to bag chips\”
11:40 — Casino Arizona representin\’ (8 of Tom\’s buddies still alive)
12:00 — Day 2 strategy
12:40 — Karridy predicts cards will \”hit you in the head\”
13:00 — Playing post-flop small-ball
14:55 — Cyndi Violette misplays a hand?
16:10 — Karridy loves CardPlayer, Tom loves PokerNews
