Max Steinberg heads up for WSOP #27 Title

[Hippy80]

The Title kinda says it all, but Max is currently heads up for the title in the $3,000 Mix-Max Event #27.
There will be a report up later in the news section giving all the ins and outs of the final day.

[Poker Orifice]

Good Luck in the final No.2,... hope you take it down!

[Savy]

Is that final table number 3 this year? Sick!

Three final tables. Two HU's I think (meaning twice in he has been in the final two, not that 2/3 of them were hu tournaments).

[Jack Sawyer]

River more backdoor straights Max. So deceptive. GOGOGOGO.

[ChipEaterMan]

lucky river for max
the 6

[Savy]

It'd be interesting to see how much rubbish the commentators talk, although I imagine they are quite knowledgeable.

So often they go OMG SICK call/fold, but they can't be +EV in the long run.

[ChipEaterMan]

[jackvance]

Agreed with the commenters that Haggeling got lucky but also played damn good.

Congrats Max on the $231k.

[Stacks]

Well played Max.

[Penneywize]

FFS how many times can he get heads-up and not win a bracelet

[givememyleg]

FFS how many times can he get heads-up and not win a bracelet

at least twice. so far.

[givememyleg]

number 2 in the world... perhaps a poor forum name choice?

[griffey24]

So sick, but amazing run once again. Congrats Max!

[Stacks]

Did he ever get around to doing that interview with FTR after his last FT? If so, anyone have a link? If not, will there be one soon?

[rong]

Three final tables and no wins, he's not very good at poker is he.

[Hippy80]

I'm reaching out to Max to organise the interview later this week. We're hoping to get a Skype interview organise when Max has the time.

[Pascal]

Well played Max, sick results. Your name sake Max Heinzelmann and you should share a pint and discuss getting rich from 2nd places

[ChipEaterMan]

Congrats Max

[eugmac]

i vote cem as one of the worst all-time posters on ftr.

[bigspenda73]

he's at it again

top 5 in chips in the $5 6max with 24 players left, over $600k to the winner

[rong]

Jesus! The guy is a machine.

[jackvance]

Seems like he got busted when he lost a flip 99 vs JT and T on flop.

[NightGizmo]

i vote cem as one of the worst all-time posters on ftr.

+1

Grats on another final table, Max!

[Pascal]

i vote cem as one of the worst all-time posters on ftr.

Well played Max. Very impressive, sick results.
Isaac Hangerling was a tough heads up opponent.
He's 2nd with 10 remaining in event #35 Pot Limit Omaha right now:

[kiwiMark]

and now actively rooting for the competition!

if this guy wasn't spanish speaking I'd be calling for the banhammer

[ChipEaterMan]

Isaac busted in 10th place

[bigspenda73]

Looks like Max, Sauce, and Nutsinho all made Day 2 of the $25k 6max

$1,205,324 to the winner, 18 make the money, 107 remain.

[bigspenda73]

Nuts is in the final 9 of the $25k 6max

[jackvance]

Nice. Livestream is only the female tourney it seems.

[bigspenda73]

ESPN3 will have the final table in 10min
