If You Could Play High Stakes Heads-Up, Who and What Would You play?

#1 11th December 2010, 6:39 AM

Hey Everyone,

If you had $200,000 to play, I would like to play against Phil Ivey, or perhaps Isildur1...

but I wouldn't play No Limit Hold'em... or Pot Limit Omaha

I would probably want to play Limit RAZZ

that way at least I feel I might have a chance... and since it's LIMIT, I wouldn't loose all my money in one hand ;-)

I would search out the newest, worst player I could find to play against. Then my $200,000 should become $400,000.

#3 11th December 2010, 7:58 AM

Ivey plays 2K/4K Razz! You'll need a lot more than 200K to play at that table, and Isildur1 doesn't play Razz.

I'd probably just play two 100K flips against Ivey or Ziigmund OR "HU4ROLLZ" against Isildur1.

HU-NLHE 500/1K against Phil Laak.

Even if I lost, it would be entertaining as hell!
But it would have to be live, face to face

Gus Hansen

1000NL

10K NL vs. the stupidest rich fish around.

#8 11th December 2010, 3:17 PM

I'm in it for the money not the ego. Find me a rich newbie to play against.

#9 11th December 2010, 3:42 PM

..I think id play Ivey..I figure im probably gonna get thumped long term againat the pros, figure i might as well get spanked by ivey :-)

#10 11th December 2010, 6:20 PM

Actually even though he isn't my "favorite" poker player I would like to play against Daniel Negreanu. Prob would lose my money but I know the time spent would be full of talking, humorous, and very entertaining.

He seems to be one of the few players that just have a really good time sitting at the table.

#11 11th December 2010, 6:30 PM

Phill H for me. Would cherish putting him into a rant.

#12 11th December 2010, 7:59 PM

200,000$ VS 1,000,000$

Hehe against pokerKid Daniel Negreanu

#13 12th December 2010, 8:15 AM

i would play scout326 at holdem

#14 12th December 2010, 9:31 AM

I would play gus because he is a noble funny guy and most of the pros are ego testical yeah testical douch bags lol ... Just watch gus prove it on this video.

YouTube - All pros fold kings full on the river

#15 12th December 2010, 9:45 AM

i would play Guy Laliberté

#16 12th December 2010, 9:58 AM

You played Gavin?? Gavin Smith??? Really?

Whichever Chinese businessman has a HU seat open at his table in Macau and is willing to play for a paltry $200K.

#20 13th December 2010, 12:07 AM

Tom McEvoy--Limit 5 card draw.

#21 13th December 2010, 12:25 AM

I would want to play mike the mouth. Should be an interesting experience even if I lose.

#22 13th December 2010, 12:41 AM

200K in one game. That kind of bankroll management is typical of boorish Americans

#23 13th December 2010, 2:19 AM

What do you mean "if"?

#24 13th December 2010, 2:34 AM

i'd play dan negreanu no question...even though i'd likely lose....be worth it

#25 13th December 2010, 2:38 AM

I would love to sit down with any of the normal pros....

Hellmuth, Doyle, Ivey, Hansen, or Daniel
Also Laak or Antonio would be interesting.

Durr would be insane, can't know when he's bluffing or when he's has it.

Hachem could be interesting, I don't think he played that well when he won the main event but he did talk Dannemann into calling.

#26 13th December 2010, 8:59 AM

would play with durrrr or Gus Hansen, becouse whole table is happy when one of them plays.......as far as I see tables on FT they give away a lot of money

But HU is a b*tch.

What? Durr is up over $4.8 Million...

1st choice - Doyle. Just to have a conversation about where he has been.

2nd choice - Daniel. Hes just to much fun to watch.

3rd choice - Phil Hellmuth. Also fun to watch.

4th choice - Ivey. but only if I got to read his psych profile on me after the bloody match.

5th choice - Durrr.

Not 'high' stakes but fun nonetheless >

I would play Andy Bloch at NLH. He sucked out on me in a private online game on FT one night and taking $200K off him would be very nice revenge.

Do some voodoo magic to play Ungar.
