To those against a shot clock - If you had to sit through the WPT final table @Borgata last night, you might change your mind.
RT @DevilsInsiders: This is my favorite. RT @KenDaneykoMSG: Fired up, after hitting the river, with the great @MikeSexton_WPT looking on! h…
@KenDaneykoMSG Congrat's on winning @Borgata tourney! AMAZING! Looks like your skills on the green felt may top those on ice. #Devils #WPT
“@TheReader23: “@Jerry_Drew: http://t.co/p6K9mIEhkJ Mike & Vince: Hope you guys read this before tomorrow's 15k final table” It's pathetic!
“@LynnGilmartin: Love this pic! @MikeSexton_WPT @MissBBell http://t.co/fv3oYjemuO” Fun night @PartyPoker media tourney. #Borgata
Congrat's @MukulPahuja on Season 12 WPT Player of Year - 5 cashes including 2nd, 2nd, 4th, & 8th place finishes (was also 3rd in $10M Gtd).
“@westwing1:Don't know if you heard but @VictoriaCoren became the first 2 time EPT champion tonight #EPTSanRemo" Yes, it's GREAT! Congrat's!
It's the Easter egg hunt & brunch - then I catch a plane to @Borgata for @WPT championship! http://t.co/sinY6IrQWX
Oh here we go, they're at it again. It's time to play, who's gonna win? #WPTchampionship #Borgata \nApr 21-26 Happy Easter!
Tapioca pudding @SHRHollywood. Picked up 10's, guy raised, I moved all-in 29k, @PhilLaak picked up Aces in blind. Good news - Masters time.
Just picked up QQ - raised to 3500 - 3 callers. Flop 10-10-10. Lost 55k in the pot. Opponent J-10. (I could have lost 20k less. 38k left)
How great is The Masters? Love it! Rick Reilly just texted, "Bubba is giving away more shots than a fired bartender." #classic
“Action may not always bring happiness; but there is no happiness without action." - Benjamin Disraeli” Gamblers understand this.
Congrat's to all participants in WPT @SHRHollywood ($5m guarantee) - you are part of the largest field in WPT history! #WPT #SHR #$$$$
Really hard to beat the next 4 days - The Masters & the WPT @SHRHollywood $5M gtd prize pool ($3500 buy-in w/3 starting days - & re-buys).
Seven card stud poker legend Danny Robison (who taught me poker) passed today. He & Chip Reese took Vegas by storm in the 70's. #RIPDanny
“@piersmorgan: RIP Mickey Rooney - a true Hollywood legend.” He finished 7th in WPT Invitational - still hurts us @WPT - out on TV bubble!
??? $5,000,000 reasons to go #WPTSHRPO April 10-16. \n$3500 buy-in (3 Day 1's w/re-buys). http://t.co/Ekrhq6UJBN” And it's WARM in FL!
VALUE = $5M Guar prize pool for a $3500 buy-in WPT televised event. Where: @SHRHollywood FL, \nWhen: Apr 10-16 (3 starting days).\nNice, huh?
Ear muffs to suntan lotion - love Montreal & @PLAYGROUNDPOKER but brrrr....can't wait to get to FL & @SHRHollywood (Apr 10-16). #WPT
“@msalsberg: @MikeSexton_WPT really enjoyed listening to you on the live stream. Nice to get to hear more than edited version of you!” Thx!
“@SoyEmmanuelMeza: With @VinceVanP_WPT and @MikeSexton_WPT World Poker Commentators extraordinaire! @LAPC http://t.co/ItEJajoRp8”. TY! ??
I'm going to join @Bond_18 for the live stream final table @PLAYGROUNDPOKER in Montreal. Check it out if you get a chance (12:30 pm EST).
RT @warrenlush: Mike Sexton – BB Jackpot - I Loved It! http://t.co/M7jcIJT9HT via @PartyPoker @playgroundpoker
Out to dinner & clubbing with the big dogs tonight! They do Montreal right. http://t.co/stEZT01CxO
“@TexDolly: Why did it happen to me? Looked like Michigan plus 2 1/2 couldn't possible lose.#3POINTERATTHEBUZZER” I'm with you Doyle. BAD!
Double whammy! Busted out of WPT Montreal (but did cash) at the same time KY holds ball for last 30 sec's & then hits that bomb to cover!
Attn (those in NJ): $100k guar in NJ @partypokerUS - keep an eye out for the overlay!
“@jaredjaffee21: @MikeSexton_WPT kentucky today?!” No. It's Big 10 for me all the way! I have Mich St & Michigan (and Wisc last night).
Day 2 @PLAYGROUNDPOKER about to start. I have just below aver at 90k (amount I had after 1st hr yesterday). Need another 'Carl Lewis' start.
Great job @OhioState_MGYM winning last 3 events in Big 10 gymnastics (Jake Martin - vault, & @MeltonSean - P-bars & High bar)! GO Bucks!
“@kevinhoff: @MikeSexton_WPT who is Carl Lewis? #jk”. That's a 'tell' as to how young you are. Google him. #multipleOlympicchampion
“@WCKid: @MikeSexton_WPT what about the Dayton Flyers Mike”? I'll be pulling for them & all three Big Ten teams (Wisc, Mich, & Mich St).
BOOM! Out of the gate like Carl Lewis in the 100 yd dash - $90k at the end of the 1st level. #WPTMontreal
OK. Here we go - off & running on Day 1C at WPT @PLAYGROUNDPOKER. I'm hoping my third (& final) bullet is a lucky one. #thirdtime'sacharm
Hats off to Michigan for Elite 8 in baskets & for winning the Big Ten gymnastic meet today (Buckeyes finished 2nd in team standings).
More upside @PLAYGROUNDPOKER - after busting, went to the Rail (coffee shop) & discovered their chicken noodle soup. Wow! #terrific
Ouch! Out Day 1B @PLAYGROUNDPOKER (opponent had to catch Ace on river). Upside = Day 1C tomorrow and I get to watch NCAA basketball tonight.
Dayton (where I grew up) = T-E-A-M! And Wisconsin (I'm a Big Ten guy) looks so good. And tomorrow, it's Big Ten gymnastics - GO BUCKS!!
The guy who won BB jackpot @PLAYGROUNDPOKER (Richard Figiel from Mont) started at my tourney table, got broke, & then hit BB jack for $157k!
Just got broke @PLAYGROUNDPOKER w/5's on 7-5-2 flop (he had pocket 7's). HUGE cheer goes up - guy just hit $400k bad beat jackpot same time
“@golferjosh: @MikeSexton_WPT will it be in effect at the WPT Championship this year?” No. WPT just taking temp for future possibilities.
30 second shot clock was a suggestion - could be 40-45 or 3 time buttons. I believe amateurs would love poker more if the game moved faster.
@MadMarvin The WPT took the 'shot clock' poll as too many players complain about slow play - players shouldn't have to call clock on others.
“@RealKidPoker: @MadMarvin haven't read it yet but first guess: because me and my German friends play WAY TOO SLOW!!! :-)”. ? Plus 1
