pokerproplaya08 fighting hard

With 142 players left in the WSOP Main Event, Zo "pokerproplaya08" Karim is still a condender to win the biggest poker tournament of the year.


pokerproplaya08 has been a regular member of ChipMeUp and popular contributor to the website since 2009. He has accumulated nearly 500 positive feedbacks, has bought 13,000 shares and has created nearly 200 events at ChipMeUp.


In the Main Event, he currently has 462,000 chips - unfortunately this is well below the average of 1,450,352, but he is certainly not out of it yet. He now goes into day 6 of the tournament and has guaranteed himself a payout of at least $54,851.


pokerproplaya08 has had some good success online - notably a 2nd place finish in a FTOPS event @ FullTilt.


Some other big stacks and notable players include Sebastian Ruthenberg, JP Kelly, Tony Hachem, Jean-Robert Bellande, Aaron Jones, Daryl Jace, Allen Cunningham, Joseph Cheong, Ray Henson, David Sands, Sorel Mizzi, Eli Elezra and Erick Lindgren.


We wish Zo the best of luck for the remainder of the tournament and can only hope he makes it to the final 9 who playoff in November for the $8,711,956 first prize.


Oh, and if anyone speaks to him, tell him to give us some twitter updates so we can all keep up to date on his progress :)


Best of luck

phatchoy888.

If I don’t win, I hope he does. Very few people in poker who I actually care about like I do Choy. I’d be just as happy for him to win as I would be if I was to win.

Zo Knows Poker
Posted 1 hour 40 minutes ago by EricRamsey

Zo KarimBen Mintz opened the pot to 60,000 from middle position, and Zo Karim flatted a couple seats over. On the button, Peter Feldman squeezed all in for 703,000, and Mintz ducked out of the way. Karim made the call, though, having worked his short stack up to an amount that covered his opponent. Feldman was at risk, and the cards were on their backs.

The board gave nothing to “Nordberg”. For Karim, these chips have been a long time coming. He’s been short-stacked the whole way, and this knockout pot finally puts him just a few thousands chips short of the average.

pokerproplaya08 pokerproplaya08 (10 months ago - 18 Jul 2011 08:17 UTC)

thx all, hope I can get back on the ball 2morrow.

I acted like a tool when I snapped this kid who was annoying the fk out of me earlier on the tbl, he jammed like 700k or so from the BB over my open and I had KK n hellmuth’d, I literally jumped out of my seat n said YES! i got em cuz I literally hadn’t ever got any action from AA/KK the few (5 times in 6 days of play…lol thats between the 2) . Obv he has a6 n it comes out 62596.

Poker karma ha. I obv apologized b4 the hand had even been given a flop, they might show it on the TV. was kinda funny tho.

Then at end of night I picked up a few hands and 4balled in a spot n picked up chips…then lost with j9 on a j1084J board vs PokerKaiser who tabled KJ.

FML

hope 2morrow I can start like I did today.

Thanks Scott.

I really wanted to Nov 9 it to wear the KYA T shirts but, maybe next year.

Next time tho, please give me the blessing, as that is the only way one can prevail in that MTT.

gg river was a bitch… how much action u sell? I had a horse that went deeper :) anyhow he unfortunately didn’t make Nov 9 and then there is the tax deduction :(… but maybe next year….

I didn’t get rivered anyway??? I got it in bad n failed to hold when I got a bit lucky for a second…My dealings aren’t of your concern, but, Why do you always come into threads and have that need to brag?

Like, I’m not one to gloat at what I did and think its a great accomplishment or this n that, but why do you even come in here and start talking about how you had horses that went deeper? Why the fuck don’t you ask for an article about you n your horse n your investment?

I really didn’t even want to comment on this, but your need to be a bigshot in front of everyone is really fuckin annoying.

Get over yourself bro, you’re not that important.


Harp221122 Harp221122 (10 months ago - 27 Jul 2011 05:04 UTC)

kinda agree with ppp here and sorry that he had to point it out first.

Solid self absorbed comment as usually from you. I am sure you backed your horse “for the community”

Solid way to pile it on a guy who got closer than anyone here to life changing money. If i every meet up with you in person Zo, remind me to kick you in the balls for MDM
