Rain's comments win him points too.
Am I getting soft ????

 

[Emperor IX]

Cool. The Rise and Fall of Stu Ungar. I never saw it yet.

 

[Emperor IX]

Gold is commenting on his own Final Table I think. This should be really interesting.

They're doing both, though I don't think it'll be the whole doc.

Oh, and I hate biographical books. Documentaries are waay better (I'm a filmmaker, so maybe I'm a bit bias )

 

[aliengenius]

i'd bang steffie ungar



......please regard all subsequent posts as drunken...

 

[aliengenius]

Ungar story is tragic (in the Greek sense) for sure.

 

[dj11]

I sense JD will come along with his bong hammer.......

 

[aliengenius]

Phil Ivey has something to say about Sexton's "He would have been the greatest superstar ever" comment.

 

[aliengenius]

Ulvis Alberts in the credits- $300 bucks for his photo book....

 

[Emperor IX]

Ungar story is tragic (in the Greek sense) for sure.

He did bring a lot of it upon himself though. It's tragic how it ended, but he never tried to make it better, he was in complete control.

lmao

woot

 

[nateofdeath]

just have to ask, fo those of you watching this live:

are there any 'Jamie Gold's' at this year's final table? he ruined it for me last year, and in spite of any poker skills that he might possess, prevented me from watching the main event when they broadcxasted it on espn

Right, that's the "Greek" part-- people say it's "tragic" when kids die in a school bus accident, but it's not "tragic" in the Greek sense-- you need to "self destruct" so to speak to be tragic in the Greek sense.

[aliengenius]

Tell us?

he said, "not"

 

[aliengenius]

woooot

Damn I forgot that part. My last English class (senior english) was all independent book reports on the author of our choice (I did H.P. Lovecraft... lol) We haven't done tragedies since 10th grade.

 

[Afterlife000]

At least watkinson made it. Since hes the only good one left, then i guess im rooting for him to win.

Yo, he's gone already.

 

[vanquish]

I hope donk yang goes on mega-tilt.

 

[aliengenius]

I hope donk yang goes on mega-tilt.

Mega tilt for Yang= doing what he normally would but 'over the top' of actual shows of strength (ex. w the 'donk nuts' of JT).
