  • 466 Make Main Event Day 2A Cut
    WSOP 2008 Day 41: 466 make Main Event Day 2a cut There may have been 1,251 players coming into Day 2a of the 2008 World Series of Poker Main Event on Tuesday, but only 466 came out of it by the time the last hand was dealt for the day. By the end of the day, all eyes were on Brian Schaedlich, from Cleveland, Ohio, who was sitting with one of the most impressive chip leads for a player at the end of a Day 2 that the WSOP has seen in years. He ended the day with about USD 801,000 in chips, and his closest rival is sitting with just USD 397,000. Brandon Adams is sitting in a strong position as well after Day 2a with USD 353,600. The Full Tilt Poker pro had a good stack of more than USD 70k after his Day 1 and said he played a lot of smaller and mid-size pots on Day 2a to continue his climb. „Today I started out playing very fast but then treaded water for a while,“ Adams said in his interview with PokerListings. „I think I ended up the second level of the day with around USD 160,000. I just had a good level and got it all the way up to USD 207,000.“ As he continued to accumulate chips, Adams landed at the ESPN feature table as well, where he had to play under the watchful eyes of the cameras. Adams is a renowned cash-game player who has managed to keep a fairly low tournament profile so far, but his exposure in the Main Event if he goes deep could change all that.

  • Texas Hold 'Em
    Texas hold 'em This article is about the poker game. For other uses, see 2 History Texas hold 'em (disambiguation). “Hold 'em” redirects here. For other uses, see Hold 'em (disambiguation). Texas hold 'em (also known as Texas holdem, hold 'em, or holdem) is a variation of the standard card game of poker. Two cards (hole cards) are dealt face down to each player and then five community cards are placed face-up by the dealer—a series of three (“the flop”) then an ad- ditional single card (“the turn” or “fourth”) and another additional card (“the river” or “fifth street”). Players have the option to check, bet, raise or fold after each deal; i.e., betting may occur prior to the flop, “on the flop”, “on the turn”, and “on the river”. Texas Hold 'em is the “H” game featured in H.O.R.S.E and in H.O.S.E. 1 Objective In Texas hold 'em, as in all variants of poker, individuals compete for an amount of money or chips contributed by the players themselves (called the pot). Because the cards Johnny Moss, Chill Wills, Amarillo Slim, Jack Binion, and Puggy are dealt randomly and outside the control of the players, Pearson outside of Binion’s Horseshoe in 1974 each player attempts to control the amount of money in the pot based either on the hand they are holding,[1] or on Although little is known about the invention of Texas their prediction as to what their opponents may be hold- hold 'em, the Texas State Legislature officially recognizes ing.
