FULL TILT POKER BLOG

Posted by Editor | Filed under FTOPS, Huckleberry Seed

I’m starting this at 12:20 AM EST. The players in the PLO with rebuys have been at it for 3 hours 15 minutes. I busted long ago, not just from this event but also from the $35,000 Guarantee. I’m trying to get myself eliminated from the $30,000 Guarantee at this moment. Someone is following me around telling me how bad I am and, apparently, I’m trying to prove it to him.

At the break, there were 110 players left in FTOPS #4. Average chips were 30,727. The leader had 114,000. Fourth in chips was Jon Bloch, Andy’s brother. His avatar is, of course, the rock. If he wins this but doesn’t get his own avatar, he should at least make Full Tilt put a cowboy hat on it. Stuart Paterson leads the Full Tilt pros with 73,000 chips, in sixth place. Alan Cunningham has 42,000 chips, Paul Wolfe, 27,000 [Paul has since busted], Huck Seed, 23,000.

The Further Adventures of Huckleberry Seed

When I left you last night, Seed was hanging on with below-average chips, maneuvering his stack, and avoiding showdowns. I spent an evening with Huck and Ted Forrest talking about Razz last summer, and Huck’s main message was this:

Don’t play hands when you can steal.

At one point, he talked about hypothetically throwing away A-2-3 in Razz against a raise and re-raise when at a table where he could steal with impunity. (Ted Forrest wisecracked, “I guess I’m not as good a Razz player as you. I don’t think I could throw away A-2-3.”)
