What’s New at TPE – Week Ending 3/9/2014

Save for Later

Twas a glorious week at TPE. Of utmost importance is the fact that I finally shipped something and made enough money to get that oil change I’d been dreaming of. Oh and Cory Waaland just decided to go shopping for bling and added another ring to his collection in consecutive WSOP Circuit stops. Luckily for us, he continues his Maximus Main Event series this week as well. Merfinis proceeds with his review of OneTime1Time’s Sunday million run and Marc wraps up his KB beatdown. Plus the TPE Members Tourney returns this week. Details below.

Sticking it to the Man! Killingbird’s Nightly $11 with Marc Alioto

In part 5, we start at the final table and watch how KB navigates through the ICM minefield. The first thing I notice is how much better he is playing since he’s down to just this final table. He’s focusing more than when he had tons of tables in the early stages. We give him crap for his nitty style, but he proves he can get cray cray when he needs to.

TPE Member Hand History Review – OneTime1Time Sunday Million FT

In part 3, OneTime gets deeper and deeper into the Sunday Million. Merfinis points out a few spots where he may be getting it in a little too light and increasing his variance unnecessarily. In part 4, we start with about 100 players remaining. OneTime’s play seems to improve a bit in this part. He made a few questionable shoves with ace rag, but it’s probably better to err on the side of being too aggressive than too passive.

Cory “MJ23STYLEz” Waaland Premiere Video – Main Event Win Mid Stages

Cory returns this week with one of my favorite video series of the past six months. He is now in the mid stages of his Poker Maximus Main Event win. I love how he takes interesting non standard lines and keeps us entertained with his hilarious commentary. He definitely breaks the rules and leaves a ton of us scratching our heads, but while we wonder, he just keeps proving himself both on the virtual felt and in your local card rooms from coast to coast.
