Here's your Newhizzle update. He's chipleader going into Day 6 with like 90 players left. 7.4 million chips, roughly what he had at his final table last year. Some people have called Dan Harrington's back-to-back Main Event final tables in '03/'04 the greatest WSOP accomplishment. If Newhouse does it in these 6.5k player fields, it won't be forgotten.

Newhouse has mastered the craft of always looking stoned.
So does anyone know his full story. Druff had mentioned he was in a lot of debt, is that completely cleared now with the 9th place or does he still owe some? I mean if almost 800k doesn't clear your debt that's some deep hole.
due to backing I thought he only cleared ~300k BEFORE tax on that. So maybe he walked away with $150kQuote:

Hope he wins, Karma is good ,Newhizzle could have easily took chinos path but didn't ,As far as I am aware he's spent the last several years trying/playing to get out of debt to backers and other various debts and supposedly last years ME barley got him in the clear with just a very very $little$ left over ,I have seen newhizzle win 160k without having a dime to his own name and paying every bit of it to help clear debt ,The dude is stand up and deserves a nice score in this ME now that he's finally gotten himself in the + side of things.
Down to 20 Newhouse is in 9th place with 9,590,000.
I heard from a slightly reliable source that Newhouse is a really nice guy

Dan Harrington's cognoscenti are getting very nervous right now.
Quote:
Dan Harrington won the gold bracelet and the World Champion title at the $10,000 buy-in No-Limit Hold'em Championship at the 1995 World Series of Poker. And he was the only player to make it to the final table in 2003 (field of 839) and 2004 (field of 2576) considered by cognoscenti to be the greatest accomplishment in WSOP history.

Stephensen: {a-Spades}{k-Clubs}
Newhouse: {a-Hearts}{9-Hearts}
The flop: {k-Spades}{q-Spades}{j-Clubs}, giving Stephensen top pair. An {8-Hearts} turn was a blank, as was the {2-Hearts} river.
Geez. This reminds me of the infamous A7 moment with Joseph Cheong. What was Newhouse thinking here?Quote:

Obviously the guy has to be playing great overall to make it this deep twice in a row, but how do you not abandon A9 there, which is always drawing to 3 outs in this spot?
Guess he was obsessed with not believing what appeared to be a BB resteal.
EDIT: :moonlanding
Looking at that hand in black and white, it's pretty fucking horrible. Even his 4bet (2.4/5 tops?) wouldn't give him the odds to call off a 7m shove with A9.
But he likely had a very good reason to get stubborn like that...
No other explanation, unless I got the math wrong?

After many 12-hour days of intense poker playing with thousands of good decisions made...I think one screwup can be forgiven. gg Mr. Newhouse
also very possible he shoved and the other guy called on the last bet and pokernews messed up the hand. If this is not the case like you said more of than not he is looking at 3 outs and playing half his stack on a call here is super risky especially when he was in prime position to make a run at a final table.Quote:

Anyhow he still has 7 million left and is 7 away from another final table.
Either way this is a great run.Quote:

And a double puts him back in 5th.Quote:

Wasn't Cheong A6?
Oh for sure it is a great run but if he gets eliminated he won't look at it that way. I just say this because I have seen some tweets from him saying he is not finishing 9th again and I think that was before the main started!! Seems like he feels he has some unfinished business to take care of. Hopefully he can finish this off and get a huge score.Quote:

@wsoptd @wsop @sethpalansky May want to have security do a sweep of the mothership perch, some seem to think they can be here with no badge
well he flopped a set and got value on 3 streets, 4th in chips now
Hand #43: Mark Newhouse raised to 500,000 from under the gun, Bruno Politano called in middle position, and the two took a flop of {q-Hearts}{2-Hearts}{j-Diamonds}. Newhouse led out for 600,000, Politano called, and the turn was the {9-Spades}.
Newhouse led out again — this time for 1.1 million — Politano called, and the {4-Clubs} completed the board. Newhouse fired out a third and final bullet worth 2.75 million, Politano snap-called, and Newhouse showed {2-Diamonds}{2-Spades} for a flopped set of deuces.
The 2013 November Niner was pushed the pot, and he now has over 15 million chips.

That would likely make it a 6bet shove.
And I Highly doubt that was the case.
Good to see him stacking up again though.

Right back where he started.Quote:

Hand #52: Jorryt van Hoof opened to 525,000 from the cutoff and Eddy Sabat called from the big blind. The flop came down and both players checked to see the hit the turn. Sabat led at the turn for 600,0000 and van Hoof flatted.
The hit the felt on the river and Sabat cut out a bet of 1.15 million. Van Hoof announced all in over the top and Sabat instantly shifted in his seat. He shook his head and counted out his chip stack. His all in was for 5.975 million total and he took his time making his decision.
Sabat stood from the table and plopped chips into the center, signifying a call. Van Hoof immediately tabled for the nuts.
"Aw, man, he's got the nuts," said Sabat as he rolled over for a lower flush. His hand was pulled into the muck and he became the 16th-place finisher.
Van Hoof raked in the pot and brought his stack up to 26.655 million for the overall tournament chip lead.
Edit - flop top pair and turn a st8 and flush draw only to loose to a bigger flush.
