  BTW, my Omaha captcha is AAQJ!!!

- Jay, your mom has a mop of grey and I now an a nervous wreck. What a thrill to follow you as you played and I don't have to tell you how proud of you I have always been. Call when you get back home. Love

- Congrats on your 12th place. I was up till the very end gettin updated from Nick... I mean the "face crusher" (that's for you Nick!). Incredible feat, must feel real good. Nice job.

- you grab a bit of his skin behind his head on the top of his neck, wiggle/tug a bit to pacify him as you insert the needle...
  i havent done it in 3-4 years but its something you dont forget... he takes it like a champ...
  i used to be able to just give him the pill and he'd eat it out of my hand, hilarious
- Posted by Nick L g 2008-06-30 20:05:33
- Thanks Johnny for commenting and the updates from the wsop site. When I was on here it was truly exciting, and was a little bit bummed only because he was 2nd in chips and then soon after he had the knockout punch delivered to him.
- Posted by Johnny B. (unverified) g 2008-06-30 19:46:47
- Hey jason great job... I stayed up for awhile.. but had to get some sleep.. i was updating nick for awhile since his hotel had wsop.com blocked. congrats on 12th man. That is truly impressive
- Posted by Mom (unverified) g 2008-06-30 19:14:30
- I guess it's better "the cat in the tuxedo" rather than "the cat in the hat".
  True, I wouldn't want to stick needles into him either!
  Good thing Jay's tight with his money or he might not be back for a few...
- Posted by grm (unverified) g 2008-06-30 18:46:20
- I think he prefers it. More mysterious, goes with the tuxedo. Anyway, I hope Jason comes back before long because otherwise I'll have to learn how to stab IV needles into Buddha...maybe Ethan can help and Jason can talk us through it.
- Posted by Mom (unverified) g 2008-06-30 18:39:20
- Poor Buddha. Calling him "the cat".

- Posted by Pokermom g 2008-06-30 10:00:16
- well, if they combine, it would likely be at 10 players. Bay 101 does that, goes down to 9 players when down to 3 tables and then back up to 10 players for the final table, even when they are only paying down to 9.
  So, maybe. That would be helpful for a short stack.

- Posted by Graham g 2008-06-30 09:56:06
- I thought they combined before the final table... I just don't see it anywhere
- Posted by Pokermom g 2008-06-30 09:53:44
- let parkman eat cake
  yes. 2 tables until 9 players, I believe. It goes faster that way.
- Posted by Nick L g 2008-06-30 09:53:31
- You would like a dick or something booooo yaaaaaa
- Posted by Graham g 2008-06-30 09:51:47

- Posted by Nick L g 2008-06-30 09:47:38
- I just talked to him, "Just try and double up and see what happens is what I said" he has already made us proud and the final table will be the icing on the cake.
- Posted by parkman47 g 2008-06-30 09:47:35

  of course jc tran is really good
- Posted by Pokermom g 2008-06-30 09:45:36
- JC Tran was never down to 48K, that was a typo. He had 480K at the time.
- Posted by jaaackeee (unverified) g 2008-06-30 09:42:40
- so i just got off the phone with jason
  he's soundin kind of down....
  but i wished him luck
  and told him that he IS going to make it to the final table.......
  he said.....well i'm gonna try...
- Posted by Tomas (unverified) g 2008-06-30 09:42:36
- Read my post earlier
  HAHA JC Tran is really good to.
- Posted by Pokermom g 2008-06-30 09:42:25
- Jason typically plays really well short stacked. However, with the current blinds, he has to get lucky as playing well is not enough when your M is around 5.
  He's been running very lucky this whole tournament. I trust it will continue.
  I haven't been up this late in a lont, long time. How does anyone stay fresh for such a grueling tournament?
- Posted by Anonymous g 2008-06-30 09:41:28
- Nick do you have Tuesday night off? TO play dealers call?
  P.S. have fun in South Dakota G&J.

  Tran Doubles Up
  JC Tran made it 55,000 to go preflop and Jason Moungey called. The flop ran and Tran fired 65,000 into the pot. Jason moved all-in for 900,000 and Tran insta-called. Tran showed pocket nines for a flopped set and Mason held . Jason failed to improve and is down to just 240,000 after the hand while Tran is up over 1,000,000.
- Posted by Pokermom g 2008-06-30 09:32:17

  Parviz Razavian Eliminated in 14th Place ($29,309)
  We picked this one up on the flop. With the board showing , Parviz Razavian checked from the small blind, and Robert Kalb bet 160,000 from the big blind. Jason Moungey then pushed all in for 450,000 from the cutoff.
  Razavian – whom Moungey had covered – called. Kalb, seeing two players all in, folded, showing Q-Q as he did.
  Razavian
  Moungey
  Tough spot for Razavian there. The turn was the and the river the , and Razavian is out in 14th. Moungey is now up to 1.3 million.

- Moungey Wins Minor Skirmish
  The table folded around to Jason Moungey who completed in the small blind, and Peter Nguyen checked his option in the big blind. The flop came 8 Q 5. Moungey checked, Nguyen bet 50,000, and Moungey called. Both checked the 4 on the turn. The river brought the 6. Moungey bet 90,000, and Nguyen folded. Moungey now has 450,000, and Nguyen 350,000. Both are a bit below the average chip stack at the moment, which is about 580,000 with 14 players remaining.

  but who is taking care of buddha?

- don't worrry... jason will be in for the big money!!!! he'll move up from 10th
- Posted by Pokermom g 2008-06-30 08:30:59
- $80K is a small pot at this point. Jason probably had to fold a good hand to a push. At this stage, you are very careful of your tournament life.

- Playing online poker while I sweat him. mwa ha ha
- Posted by Pokermom g 2008-06-30 08:30:07
- Blinds going up in less than 10 minutes - $3K/$10K/$20K. Jason just took a hit of $80K to his stack, down to $400K.
- Posted by jaaackeee (unverified) g 2008-06-30 08:29:22
- not good not good

- Posted by Pokermom g 2008-06-30 08:09:22
- no, 16 players still. JC Tran did not lose a bit pot. They mis-reported his chip stack. imagine that. But, yes, Jason currently 7th.
- Posted by jaaackeee (unverified) g 2008-06-30 08:07:18
- yeah
  so 15 players left jason is 7th??

- Posted by Pokermom g 2008-06-30 07:57:46
- And... Back up.
  Jason Likes the Flop
  Jason Moungey led out preflop for 45,000 and was called by Peter Nguyen. The flop ran and Jason fired out 90,000 into the pot. Peter Nguyen folded the hand and Jason is up to 480,000.
- Posted by parkman47 g 2008-06-30 07:55:11
- Parviz Doubles Through Moungey
  Jason Moungey raised to 45,000 from late position, and it folded to Parviz Razavian who raised all in to 135,000 from the big blind. Moungey made the call. Razavian showed AJ, and Moungey tabled A8. The board came 7 4 10 Q 2, and Razavian doubled up to 290,000. Moungey has 430,000.
- Posted by uzjedi g 2008-06-30 07:55:07

- Sorry, man. Couldn't resist. Anyways, underneath all that hair, I suspect Graham is one fine looking young man as well.

- oh snap!
- Posted by Pokermom g 2008-06-30 07:31:46
- Graham:
  Pot
  Kettle
  Black
  JC is fine because he's a great player. Aggressive as hell. Funny. Me and Lyd (sister) sat behind him during the taping of the Shooting Star. Him and Nam Le were in the audience rooting their friend on. Playing Chinese poker. He's obssessed. Smart. What's not to like?
  I mean, honestly, if it weren't for chicks that liked smart dudes, where would you be?

- Posted by parkman47 g 2008-06-30 07:29:18
- apparently both he and i can do it
  because i told him he could do it
  and he said i could do it
- Posted by Teresa g 2008-06-30 07:25:54
- ahh he just called he was like "hmm I'm so lucky, ha.." he sounds so tired :( I'm so excited
- Posted by Graham g 2008-06-30 07:25:50
- Just to clear things up. Maybe it's a bad picture, maybe it's the million in winnings and number 1 ranking or maybe I'm just not attracted to men, but I don't see it. Just another mark...
- Posted by Megan g 2008-06-30 07:24:58
- Jason has 600K now which is above the average chip count. He's getting into some serious money.
  Good luck!!

  she is sooo proud of you!!
- Posted by Teresa g 2008-06-30 06:56:16
- One day after a tourney in my (our, w/e) apartment, Jason was telling me he thought we were good but that we were not on that level, not capable of playing against the pros, also because we played with the same group for so long (he was kinda drunk too). I'm glad he's finding out he was wrong and that he's great.
- Posted by Pokermom g 2008-06-30 06:55:59
- your brother has already done phenonmenally well and will win the tourney.
  down to 18. redrawn to 2 tables. Hope they post who's where.
- Posted by Pokermom g 2008-06-30 06:49:50
- M is moving up. good sign. But yellow is best zone for Jason. He plays mid stack really, really, REALLY well. Doesn't get cute. Usually he's done enuf cute things to lull the opposition into thinking he can't do anything but, and then, whammo, he crushes you with the nuts.
  Not fun to experience when he crushes you, but I've been watching. And he's gotten better at it lately. He reached his own inflection point and this event is a nice validation of same.
- Posted by Ethan g 2008-06-30 06:48:10
- Jason called in an update (which you can see above):
  - Over 500k in chips
  - 18 people left
  - going to start getting really tough
- Posted by jaaackeee (unverified) g 2008-06-30 06:47:12
- so i'm assuming that my brother is doing good......?
- Posted by Ethan g 2008-06-30 06:45:17
- Blinds now at 6000/12000 w/1000 ante, so m = 18. BTW, the site keeps you logged in but times you out after 2 hours of inactivity. We'll have auto-login eventually :/

  Brewer Bounced
  Kirby Brewer pushed all in with his last 70,000 from under the gun, and Jason Moungey called behind him. Brewer showed , and Moungey . The board ran out , and Brewer is out in 20th place. Moungey is now up to 450,000.

  I'm rarely wrong.

  Jason's taking this one home.
  oh, yeah....

- Say what?
  "J.C. Cajoles Cavazzini J.C. Tran just eliminated Augusto Cavazzini. Holding , Tran flopped eights full of deuces and managed to get the rest of Cavazzini's chips after he had paired his king on the turn. The table applauded the well-liked Cavazzini as he left. Tran is now up over 5 million."
  Um... 2,718 X 3,000 = 8,154,000 chips in play.
  Tran has 63% of all the chips now? No way. Jeeeeeeez, these updates are not content rich enuf.
- Posted by Teresa g 2008-06-30 06:21:27

  he was like "if I make the final table I'm getting you a ticket to Vegas!" He probably didn't think he'd make it haha. GOOD JOBBBBBBBBB

- Posted by Pokermom g 2008-06-30 03:51:29
- Looks like he lost one big pot, but he still has far above average chips. This is typical for this part of the tourney. He hasn't risked his tournament life but to win, you have to take some risks. You can't just grind to the final table.
  You need to play. Smart.
  Your boy, as you know, is a smart one.
  Go buy your ticket.
- Posted by Mom (unverified) g 2008-06-30 03:46:38

- Jason... Focus Focus Focus... Just stay put. You still have a lot of work to do. Do what you are doing and don't lose focus. Aim high... very high. Good luck man... we are all rooting for you.

- Considering your several near death experiences during this tourney, Jason, I'm thinking that Lady Luck has a significant crush on you. Work it.
  Every tourney I've won was preceeded by rushes such as the one you are experiencing, so I'm convinced of your imminent success and not willing to hedge my comments with any doubt or qualifying remarks.
  I look very forward to seeing you at the final table.

  p.s. Knock out JC Tran last. I totally dig that guy.
- Posted by grandmadelores (unverified) g 2008-06-30 02:23:49
- Lady Luck can be very fickle, but I know in your case a lot of skill is involved. I also know you will make wise choices, if you do win the big one, and I certainly hope you do. Love

- Just talked to Jay. He's hyped. So are we!!!
  Jay – Adam wants to come to Vegas to see you play the final table, too!
  I'll have my cell next to my bed...if I don't get to come to Vegas, I have to go to work at 6:30 am. It's 9:27 pm now. I still have time to pack........
  Go Jason Go!!

- dont pay 10k to play the big game and definatly dont play the cash game at belagio if thats the big game in referance. if your gunna try to play the main event play 10 satellites instead of paying the 10k entry fee save most your winnings for bankroll unless you make top 3 then buy a house while the market is cheap and shit if you can squeak it in buy multiple that way you have long term investments plus you could rent them out and have the mortgage paid for and suplement your bank roll that way. if you want to become a pro which im sure you do spend 6 months playing local tournies the 300-1500 buy in ones make your coming out party for big tourney when shooting star comes back to town but until then youll be able to pick up more expierience playing lower stakes tournies and you can flirt with the 5-200 spread limit games and ill take you to HAYWARD "THE PALACE" so you can play a true NL holdem cash game where some of the players sit with 20k in front of them its the best NL game in the bay area BAR NONE first thing is first crack the top 3 while we all watch in AWE
- Posted by Graham g 2008-06-30 02:08:49
- Haha, I only meant relaxed as in neither nervous nor tense. You know, relaxed like he was playing at someone's kitchen table... Killer instinct still applies and Jason seems to have that covered =)

- Megan: Catch the next flight to Vegas. You have to be there for Jason's final table. He will make the final table. No doubt in my mind. You don't want to miss it. He's on dinner break right now. Work it out. You will regret it for a long time if you don't go.
  Jason: You are now a professional poker player. At least 2/3 of your winnings should be your bankroll. Take a quick trip home to catch up on work after you win this one and then get your arse back to Vegas to play the big game.
  Now, let me tell you how I really feel...

- Megan, are you in Vegas now?
- Posted by Megan g 2008-06-30 01:39:49
- Jason now has 260K
  Andy Block is on Jasons left with a substantial stack and making Jasons life hard. So he's being conservative. He's gotten sucked out on a couple of times when low chip stacks go all in and he's had the better hand.
  He made a killer play against the chip leader with 10h and 8h when he was on the botton. The chip leader makes a normal raise and Jason calls the cards come 10d 6c 4c. The guy raises and Jason re-raised 2 1/2 times his opponents raise. The guy calls and the turn is 2d. The guy bets the same amount he ended up raising for (30K). Jason smooth calls. The river is 6h. The guy goes all in and Jason asks "how much?" The guys hand starts shacking so Jason calls. The guy had Jc-7c and so Jason doubles up.
  Nice work Jason!

- Keep on trucking man this is way to intense
- Posted by Graham g 2008-06-30 01:34:42
- So exciting. I hope he can remain relaxed and focused as his stack grows and the day wears on. Yippee!

- Yeah, seems that way. I'm trying to get an update...
- Posted by Pokermom g 2008-06-30 00:59:04
- the chip counts are not right, I think, since they've shown Jason at a stagnant 150K since down to 108. If you look at Jason's post via Ethan above, he doubled up to 300K, so I think he's not 17th at all, but higher.

- Posted by FREMONTkyle g 2008-06-30 00:57:17
- 14th out of 70
- Posted by FREMONTkyle g 2008-06-30 00:53:05
- round 14 blinds are 2k and 4k with 500 dollar ante
- Posted by Pokermom g 2008-06-30 00:50:19
- I think $500 ante with blinds at $2K/$4K now. Yes? Ethan?

- Posted by Pokermom g 2008-06-30 00:48:22

  Bad Day for Monarchs
  A player in middle position pushed his last 15,000 in the middle, Jason Moungey called from the button, then Eugene Todd reraised all in to 60,000 from the big blind. Moungey called. Todd showed , the MP player , and Moungey . The flop came A-A-10, and Moungey went from way behind to way in front. The turn and river were both eights, and both Todd and the MP player were busted. Moungey is now up to 150,000.

- M is a poker term referring to the number of revolutions around the table a player can survive having to pay the blinds and antes. His stack as of the last update gave him 8 revolutions worth of chips.
- Posted by matt d (unverified) g 2008-06-29 23:49:09
- as of posting this it shows him with 150k, the 7th largest stack
- Posted by uzjedi g 2008-06-29 23:46:38
- The latest update says his TT beat KK and QT, but I swear he said AK and QT when I talked to him just a bit ago. I could be wrong.

- Jason is about 58th out of the 215 players left, and out of 2,718 players in total and has 49,500 chips, which means he's currently in the top 2% of the field. Chip counts.
  I don't know Adrian's last name, but there is only one Adrian listed (Ridner) and he has 17,100 chips to start Day Two.
  When you consider the enormity of the number of entrants and the tournament structure, you cannot help but be very, very impressed with both of these boys.
  You should be proud, mom, as I'm sure you are.
  Looking forward to seeing both of you at the final table. Question is, whose gonna knock out JC Tran?
