Yeah, probably won't be on TV with that table. He'll be 6th in chips at his table. Definitely a few solid players there, but overall a pretty decent draw for Kiwi I'd say, though I'm no expert.

He was on the featured table. Don't know when it started because i fell asleep, but he was there.

Day 4 is over though, so i guess you are watching re-broadcast or something.

ugh, i missed it. guess ill just watch some of the rebroadcast.

another question, why arent they showing their cards on the stream until the end? when i watched it on tv they always showed cards with the percentages. this to prevent cheating or something? kinda boring not to know what they have.

yup.

this is also the reason there is a 30 minute delay for this "live" broadcast and also the reason why they switch from the featured table to the secondary table every 30 minutes.

10k of that would cover the buyin, and after taxes (not sure if he has that, since he's from Canada) he gets about ~50% of that, as he was said to have sold 20% action to Fayth and ~30% to others


Is Fayth rich?


dunno but he sure likes to come across like he is
super rich, i know he made 500k backing the guy that won last year

yeah I was just glancing at the blog out of curiosity and i think that's what it said. Regardless, from the comments it looks like he's made several million playing poker himself ;o

I remember laughing a few weeks ago on destiny's stream cause I had heard that about fayth in the past, and comabtex was asking fayth if he knew anything about poker or something

Hahaha, 272K 35K dollars? No wonder why he doesn't take SC2 seriously. But congrats! He's an awesome player.

He does take SC2 seriosuly though, when beta came out he pretty much put poker on the side because he got bored of it. I'm sure he still played once in a while but wasn't grinding as much as he was prior. tbh I don't know how much or how little he's played prior to this WSOP

Fayth is a multimillionaire and has got to be in at least the top 5 most successful poker players that used to be serious sc players. In his prime the guy was grinding like a madman and booking endless back to back to back to back months in the $50k-150k range playing hu nlhe online over like a couple of years at least iirc. Not many people can rape the games that hard. I dont read tl much but judging by these posts it does sound like he likes to brag about it here lol. But wouldn't almost any nerd? Guy has def earned the right to brag and for having accomplished a lot more than just having a lucky piece of Duhamel in last year's main event. I'm not the fanboy type but credit where it's due.

Anyhou gl Kiwi, I've seen his posts around 2+2 a bunch but never knew he was a starcraft player.. pretty cool
