Well nowadays satellites don't directly send you a tournament ticket to the WSOP, instead they give you the option to just pocket 10k.

Most people take the latter option, as you can guess.

Wow, looks like FrinkX will be on the featured table again, with two of the biggest names left (Eli Elezra and Bellande again).

What were the odds that he'd be on Bellandes table again, damn.

He's actually quite unlucky to have Elezra, probably the biggest name, to his direct left though.

Cheong is even more ballah.

And i totally missed that player list on FrinkX table. Possibly a featured table, indeed.

Yeah I think Cheong is the player I'm rooting for most now, and of course FrinkX if the guy is in the TL/LP community. Pretty rough table though, although at some point I want to say that being in John "Raise Raise Raise GOD ONE TIME OMG OMGOMG WHY DO I RUN SO BAD QQQQQQQ" Bellande is a blessing and not a curse.

lol Elezra is pretty bad, I don't think he minds. Having a tough internet player to your left would be worse.

Yeah. The big name players are mostly quite bad and don't really understand much of the game and only play by "feel" and live experience... sometimes its good but often not so much. A lot of good online players still left. Im rooting for the finnish guys Jens Kyllönen and Sami "LarsLuzak" Kelopuro both insanely good.

Even if the big names are bad or not as good as the online players/other players with less experience nowadays, they will still get 'more' coverage, featured tables and so on.

I'm also rooting for Kelapuro aswell as Cheong and FrinkX of course. Imo Kelapuro is the best Finnish player there is right know. Even though Antonius is good.

A big name maybe, but NLHE is probably Eli's worst game. Eli is fairly passive preflop and doesn't speculate much in tournaments. I think he could do a lot worse.

Big names: the very best players play 20k+ hours of poker and maximum of like 500k hands lifetime

1/2 online reg: has played millions of hands in a few years

See the difference?

Yea, but live poker is different than internet poker. If you start getting nervous about bluffing and start breathing hard or blinking a lot, doesn't matter if you're behind a computer screen

Of course that's only valid if you've never played live or have very little experience, probably not the case for most people

Yeah, live is different

In live you don't need to play good because the game is full of fish

If you think it's too hard there are solutions other than asking for a nerf, getting better is the first that comes to mind.

You just need to exploit your opponents and exploiting the live fish is a different skill than playing against online grinders or even online fish.

I could be wrong, but there was a article where this style of poker is more luck based and pros only come to play because of the huge prize pool.
