Back in the day at "Doyle's Room" they had a weekly bounty tournament which featured 6 of his friends, all pros btw, w/$500 on each of their heads. It was pretty cool. This was about 12-13 yrs ago. I remember playing at a table w/Annette Obrestad and Todd Brunson. It was alright but they wouldn't reciprocate any chatter which led me to believe that, perhaps, it wasn't exactly them at the table. The game was held in the middle of the week on a Tuesday or Wednesday so I questioned it's integrity. I never saw Doyle at any of the tables but it still was fun to think he might show up one week.

Same here! Maybe we played at the same table. I played that bounty tournament at Doyle-s Room several times. Todd Brunson and his dad was also playing a few times. I have played against Anette too, she is Norwegian like myself.

I have also played online against Thor Hansen (RIP), and several pokerstars pros back in the day.

Some of it was live play and the rest of it was mostly on UB, FT, and PS. Deeb seemed nice, felt like he was raising every hand but he was a really tough reg in the poker stars 100 mans. Those 100 man mtts were some really tough games despite the lower buyins.

Until today I played online but I never realized if I played with the professional and in face-to-face poker I couldn't have the honor of playing with a professional to measure the level at which I am, but it is still a challenge to reach those senior levels.

Deeb raised about 90% of the hands that were not opened when it got to him. I 3bet him once to see what he would do and he inst folded. I did not get any more chances to to this as he was gone soon after but with I have the guts to do it more ofton. Yeah he we pretty nice to me too.

The era of real pros is long gone....did play with a lot of them , mostly in tournaments in the 1990s , the like of helmuth,ivey neagranu etc...when they were not that famous. I am not mentionning the old timers : brunson , stu etc....

I don't know if I played with any of the poker pros. However, he recently played with the wsop winner at Spin&Go (he had the corresponding badge). I won and it was very nice. I have only met players with such badges twice.

Several in person in Blackhawk Colorado when the Heartland Poker Tour was around. Raymer, Moon, Smith, Libert, and a couple others. Just regular people, grinding at a some tournaments. Was a kick to see them in person and to play with them.
