Kinda funny to win the ME on 83o. He’ll probably start an 83o brand.
Poker needs more rail solvers.

Anyone remember the crossbook bet between Landon Tice (aka solver boy, Matt Berkey’s protege) vs Jeremy Becker (aka daily grinder, Daniel Negreanu’s protege)?
Here is how it ended. Lol live mtt grinders.

It didn’t end up too exciting but could have been a real bloodbath.
Not a fan. A bunch of pros running sims and passing on results between hands against the amateur was a horrible look and he wasn’t even playing to win with the QQ fold, then backed into it.
I don’t necessarily blame him for the QQ fold, I’d prob do the same b/c 0 to 1M would be so much more important to me than 1M to 10M, but kinda sucks that you get to sun run after lighting so much equity on fire in an obvious hand.

Tamayo was the nut low pick to win this. Angelov rail had two of the best players on earth and they did the sensible thing of getting drunk and chanting football songs. Fucking joe mckeehen and dom nitche are the worst advertisement possible to poker

It would be pretty easy to run a sim and signal the player during the hand as well - with different catcalls or a visual signal or whatever.
They dont know the cards. Its hard to cough every tree decision for every hand

How would this happen not knowing any of the hands?

Some combination of worst yet most accurate and possible?
I dont think so tbh. Nitche owns the ip to a solver. As i said, lena and angelov had some of the best players in the world on the rail and they were just having fun.
It def represents one aspect of poker these days, but not the norm
Oh yeah lol.
He also had a pretty weird AK 3bet shove hand for way too many chips against another big stack ~6 handed that had my eyebrows raised.
lol shaundeeb just 3 months ago. i wonder if this means mckeehen is the biggest winner ever in wsop?
