    i was more curious where he would fall skill wise among limit pros

    ie, would druff or chinamaniac own him

    he's obv not the best in the world and i'm sure a lot of limit pros are having wet dreams of being in his spot right now

    i think brunson would have an edge based on the sheer volume of play but if druff said i was wrong, id believe him.

    If any of these "live guys/tv guys " jumped into a game where screen names are known they would probably lose for a while until they adjusted and that's if they can figure out how to adjust and it may take a while. Some could adjust and others would just think they are running bad where they get crushed by players more skilled than them and they would lose mountains of cash

    I'm fairly confident any of these guys would get smoked on Stars in anything from 10-20 to 1000-2000

    They would prob also get smoked by just about any of the top top hu specialists over a long period of time.

    But props to Brunson for smoking this dude. If you got the bankroll , rich fish like to play cards sometimes

    Poker on TV in this day in age pretty much sucks but if they were to show this game I would watch it getting a hard on due to it being such high stakes action.

    From the reading I have done on Beal he seems somewhat competitive although some of the hands he seems to jam in too many bets when he could be crushed. Just being competitive somewhat he could go off for 150 BB no problem even if he is a dog in a long session.

    Rooting for Andy Beal, but Todd has had success against Andy before, I hope this is the start of a 2 week run.

    Poker needs this right now, there hasn't been any positive excitement since WSOP.

    Even if Beal loses the $5 million most likely don't mean shit to a guy whose net worth is $12 billion.

    Its 12:14am and if this was on tv or even streamed online, id brew a pot of coffee and probably take Monday off just to be safe.

    I may be remembering wrong but in the first set of matches Beal was randomizing his play (aggro to calling station) by the stacking of his small chips. This was ahead of its time -- this is the same way the limit hold'em machine plays -- except the live players realized that was the the reason Beal was stacking his chips in weird way and they were ready. This time he is surely changing gears in a less obvious way if he is not capable of doing it by feel.

    Go Beal.
