I hope he wins.

Gus Hansen and MiKe 'the Mouth" Matusow would scare me some. I have met Chip Jett before, and he is really good, he has 120K left and will need to start doubling up soonYou can't always get what you want, but if you try some time, you might find, you get what you need.Comment

Can't argue with Cunningham but Hellmuth seems to always make the right reads in these tournaments and if anyone is the most snakebit by suckouts it seems to be him.Originally posted by TheRook
Obviously I say this never having watched every single hand and just what they choose to edit on TV.

McManus would be a great story. His first trip was an assignment to cover the WSOP for a magazine ( I think it was Esquire, but not positive...I gave my book to a friend after I read it) and he was playing to get insight.
He ended up making the final table, and I believe he finished 6th or 7th.
To be in 2nd now sets up amazing possibility.You can't always get what you want, but if you try some time, you might find, you get what you need.Comment

Doug Ashmore 102nd in chips, hanging around with 550KYou can't always get what you want, but if you try some time, you might find, you get what you need.Comment

Doug Ashmore now with 610K.
James McManus has taken over the chip lead with over 3M.
I'd like to see Deng Dong win it, just for humor value.You can't always get what you want, but if you try some time, you might find, you get what you need.Comment

Doug is no more. I think he finished 122nd. He will get paid. Haven't looked up his winnings yet.You can't always get what you want, but if you try some time, you might find, you get what you need.Comment

July 13, 2008 WSOP Below 100 At the end of round 5, only 79 players remain. The chip leader is Mark Ketteringham with 5.8 million, followed by Andrew Brokos with 4.1 million. A big stony is Tiffany Michelle in fifth with 3.4 million; Tiffany is the on-camera host for Bluff Radio's WSOP coverage. It's been a tough tournament for the best-known players. Still playing are James McMannus (2.4 million), Brandon Cantu (2.3 million), Mike Matusow (1.2 million), Matt Matros (766,000), and Phil Hellmuth (721,000). Today's play will set the stage for tomorrow's showdown to make the final table.Comment

July 13, 2008 James McWrongus Whoa! Apparently the James McMannus who's high up the leader board in the WSOP main event is not the Positively Fifth Street author. We're told this McMannus is a twenty-something young gun from Ireland. Apologies to all involved.Comment

What sucks ass about this year's format is that as soon as they get down to the final table of 9, they take a 3 month break!
The final table will be televised live, but imagine the tension of knowing you are a millionaire, but having to try to stay out of harm's way and show up, and still have the momentum of when you were playing the best cards of your life...90 days ago.You can't always get what you want, but if you try some time, you might find, you get what you need.Comment

I don't agree with momentum, unless you were on tilt, which would be a mentally downward momentum where your playing everything. The three month break gives the mind time to heal, and it also gives you time to research the other 8 players on the table and maybe find a tendency they can capitalize on.
It's defintely different and a first, but we'll see if it helps with ratings or not.Comment
