Amazingly good quality!
Most video looks like crap on this machine
because it's a 366 processor. No videos
have ever looked this good on this laptop.
They are on dinner break right now.
They're showing a replay and it looks like
a live, real time shot.

Yeh, I was shocked at the quality of the video. I HATE watching video on my LCD computer screens....sucks balls. But this looked good. I was surprised.
Sick hand right before dinner break. Against the hooded russian chip leader John Juanda raised PF, BB called.
Flop 256, 2 spades 1 heart.
Russian checks, Juanda bet just under the pot, russian calls.
Turn K hearts.
Russian checks, juanda bet again, I forget the amount, russian calls.
River 3 hearts
Russian checks, juanda value bets about 1/3 or so of the pot 340K. Russian moves all in. Juanda has 600K left.
Juanda folded. I think Juanda started the hand with almost 2million chips. |

Ok, I've been watching for a few hours. This is pretty cool.
I didn't know about Demidov before this, but am now looking forward even more to the November 9. |

| I just loaded it back up. Down to 3....err, make that 2. Demidov is out. I am happy he did well, makes the November 9 a little more meaningful to me anyway. |

Dealer technique is interesting.
Keeps the deck close to the table
and slides each card to the player
without lifting it off the table.

Yeah, I first noticed this a few years ago on the WPT from the Aviation Club. They actually talked about it tonight for a minute. It sure seems better than throwing the cards. |

They'd be better off with the little packets method. |
