Samuel Le Bihan, French actor with fifty or series of films to his credit, has discovered the unique atmosphere of a live poker tournament. On the occasion of the tournament on Fire Stars Circle Cadet paris, he confided to PokerNews his career in the tournament and his thoughts on a game which he compares to the emotions of his craft.
The first tournament for the Circle Cadet Bihan

“For the first time I played” confesses in the introduction Samuel Le Bihan when we approach it in a break of the tournament. “We explained to me while I play, it’s a bit of a mess “says he, with his usual bluntness,” even though I already knew a pair, set, full, color …. ”

“By cons I went a bit strong emotions,” he admits with a burst of laughter. When asked if his acting skills help him in his ‘acting’ at the table, Le Bihan defends himself: “It’s not a question of player to bluff, I think it’s more animal than it “.

Beginner poker, Le Bihan has already concluded that poker is primarily a psychological battle, “what is interesting is when you are bluffing, or are you doing back round and you have the game, it precisely what strategy side, that’s what’s interesting. ”
Samuel Le Bihan, “very emotional”

“You have the exciting beginning to accelerate and there is the adrenaline that comes out … When you get in a duel with someone, you have lots of emotions and it begins to climb, you Gamberg … I think is the most pleasant time because if you win you want to relive it and if you lose, like me here for nothing, you say ‘I want to return him to put his race “jokes he said, “and all that in a very gentleman!

Impossible not to see these emotional roller coaster a parallel with the stress of an actor: “clearly yes,” nods Samuel Le Bihan, “the movies less, but the theater when you’re nervous it’s the same thing . You go with your doubts, but you go there! “

The eighth-finals of the Champions League continues Wednesday, February 16 at 20.45 with a poster that makes your mouth all football fans: Arsenal – Barcelona in the Emirates Stadium in London.

Regarded as the best team in the world, Barça is logically given favorite with odds of 1.70 on PMU.fr. Actually quite rare for the Gunners at home, their rating is 3.70 and a null result can yield 3.40 times your stake.
Arsenal Gunners with its main

In 2010, Arsenal and Barcelona had already crossed their paths in the Champions League quarter-final stage and, after a draw (2-2) to go, the Blaugrana had thrashed the Gunners return (4-1) to qualify. At the time, the formation of Arsene Wenger was faced with many absences that will not be the case tonight, only Diaby, wounded, and Sagna, suspended, missing the call. The English in particular will rely on their two masters play, Nasri and Fabregas in an attempt to confiscate the ball to the Catalans. They also rely on a Robin van Persie in a state of grace, the author of 11 goals in nine games since returning from injury. With a series of eight games without defeat (7 wins, 1 draw) in all competitions, Arsenal has so confident and determined to bring down Barcelona. The odds for the London club to reach is 3.70.
40th match without defeat away to Barcelona?

But the task is very complicated because FC Barcelona is evolving on another planet. The draw last weekend against Sporting Gijon (1-1) has surprised everyone but the statistics are maddening Blaugrana: 20 wins, 2 draws and 1 defeat in the league with 71 goals scored against only 12 conceded. Best offense and best defense of Spain, Barcelona, ??whose team play short passes in a model of its kind, owes part of its success to its jewel Lionel Messi has already rattled the net 40 times in 34 games this season. Against Arsenal, Carlos Puyol, injured knee, will be the only absentee. Villa, Iniesta, Xavi, Pedro will therefore be all there to try to get a 40th game without defeat away. The odds for the formation of Pep Guardiola is needed is 1.70 and that of a draw of 3.40.
Double chance bet “Arsenal or no” interesting

In this setting odds on the match result, the double chance bet Arsenal or no “may be interesting for players who want to minimize the risk as the rating goes up to 1.65. At the historic Arsenal and Barcelona have already competed five times in the Champions League (4-legged and 1 final) and the Gunners will never have emerged (3 losses, 2 draws).
Messi vs Van Persie scores

However, they still managed to score against the Catalans. Paris on the strikers, Van Persie is the favorite to score the Arsenal side with a score of 2.30. At Barcelona, ??Messi is favored with a rating of 1.70 but you must know that Argentina never managed to shake the nets in English since the early stage of his career.

Between 10 and 15 February 2011, the Straights were many tables on high-stakes cash games online Full Tilt Poker and Pokerstars , which has enabled the railbirds to attend a lot of action. When Patrik Antonius and Scott “UrnotINdanger2″ Palmer play, you’re sure to see a lot of money changing hands again and again. The two met Sunday night at a session of Pot-Limit Omaha $ 500 / $ 1000, during which nine pots have topped $ 200,000. Four were shared, Palmer has won three and two Antonius. But among these two, we find the biggest pot played in recent days. By far.
Palmer and Antonius are stealing chips

Both opponents had very deep carpet at the table. Antonius was sitting behind a stack of $ 301,000 and the carpet Palmer reached the $ 233,000. Antonius starts the action with a raise to $ 3,000 from the button. Palmer ’3-bet to $ 9,000 and above its rightful Antonius to $ 18,000. Aggression that does not slow at all Palmer, who put $ 54,000. Antonius then decided to press the brake and just pay to see a flop . Palmer $ 56,000 but to attack Antonius, which covers his opponent, replied carpet. Palmer choose to equalize first to stake the $ 123,000 that remain. Hands are returned:

Antonius – Five of a Kind
Palmer: – + Overpair top pair in Table

Palmer does not have a lot of outs and, moreover, remains behind, despite two successive draws, the first poster turn and the river while the second comes and . Antonius inherits all of this pot of almost $ 467,000.

Although he lost the biggest pot of the past few days, Palmer is still the biggest winner between Thursday and Sunday. Hands like that which follows partly explain this fact. The action starts with a standard raise from the button to Antonius $ 3,000 and a reraise just as Palmer’s standard $ 9,000. Antonius ’4-bet to $ 27,000, Palmer and the flop wedge is revealed. Palmer checked to Antonius, which grows in the mid $ 41,000. Palmer responds by boosting the size of the pot and Antonius called all in for $ 55,000 with . Is equivalent to a hand of Palmer, who in turn shows . But Palmer still has more outs to a flush. Once again, two prints are decided. Palmer key color on the first ( and ) And two pair on the second ( and ) And wins this pot of $ 246,974.
Palmer also very active on PokerStars

At a table no-limit hold’em ’6-max ‘$ 100 / $ 200, $ 600 Palmer opened under the gun. Will “molswi47″ Molson pushed the bidding to $ 2,000 from the cutoff and everyone folds to Palmer, who re-raised again to $ 6,600. Molson calle, allowing two players see a flop . Palmer maintains pressure with an upgrade to $ 5,600 Molson but chose to stay in the game. The appears on the turn and Molson sends $ 14,800 more in the middle. Molson equalized again. The River leads Palmer to put ‘all in’ with the biggest stack of two. Molson still has $ 38,000 behind and decided to align itself but its was behind from the start, showing Palmer . It affects about $ 130,000 this blow.
Gus Hansen, the evil genius of Cao Rui

Gus Hansen and Rui Cao clashed during a relatively short session on the night of Monday to Tuesday: a little over 100 hands played in PLO capped at $ 500 / $ 1,000. The result? Hansen got up from table, taking $ 350,000 from the bankroll of French. Here are two hands played during that battle.

Cao opens the pot by making a mini-raise to $ 2,000 and Hansen inflates the pot with a reraise to $ 6,000. Cao opts for a ’4-bet to $ 18,000, followed by Hansen. The flop shows Hansen and checked to his opponent, who bets $ 22,000 and reaches the cape. Danish and Cao show calle For a overpair kings. But it is behind the Hansen, who has the trips and the middle of a straight draw. Two prints are decided and the first provides the turn, giving Cao few more outs for a straight. But the river is a Hansen makes full and he already provided the first half of the pot. A appears on the second draw, then a the river, which keep him front and Hansen provide the entire pot.

In another hand, Cao chooses once again the mini-raise to $ 2,000 and Hansen reraised to $ 6,000 in the big blind. Cao calle and the flop is returned: . Hansen put $ 8,000 and quickly relaunch Cao $ 34,000, reaching the Cape. Hansen called with , For top pair, while Cao shows For a pair of Jacks and ended straight draw. Cao missing all his outs, despite two successive draws and therefore sees another pot of $ 80,000 towards the Danish fly.

The seventh season of the famous televised cash game show High Stakes Poker begins Feb. 26 with a conspicuously absent: the legendary commentator Gabe Kaplan.

Last week, the American channel GSN (Game Show Network) has announced the replacement of Kaplan by
Norm MacDonald, an icon of comedy show Saturday Night Live, a decision that divides the poker community.
Norm MacDonald replaces Gabe Kaplan

Gabe Kaplan

“I really like Kaplan,” commented Christian Harder. “He assured comments of poker programming ever since and obviously he’s very funny. (Norm) MacDonald has lots of humor, but I’m not sure he knows too much poker.

Jon Eaton is less concerned with the analysis side Shots: “I think that HSP is the best poker show on TV and I’ve always been big fan of Norm from his appearances on SNL,” he commented. “I’m really much less interested in his opinions about poker than I am of his monologues in the hands played by the players. ”

“I think the poker community is always looking for reasons to go up to the plate” on his side thinks Joe Sebok. “Gabe is amazing at what he does, but maybe that Norm will be just as effective. I think we should take a step back, HSP will always be a good program and Norm is a very funny guy. ”
Norm MacDonald: “I’m quite nervous”

We have discussed with Norm MacDonald to get his first impressions of his role in the show HSP and poker in general.

PokerNews: Norm, you play poker for a long time and at an episode of Howard Stern Show you said you played at the legendary Mayfair Club. Is that where you started playing?

Norm MacDonald: Yes, I started at the Mayfair Club because I had a very big problem of gambling addiction at the time and I realized that poker was a way to squander money less quickly [laughs ]. And it worked. I went there, I played limit hold’em playing every hand until the end, and I lost [laughs].

After a moment someone – I think it was Joey Bagels – took pity on me and gave me a book. After reading the book, “Oh $% & @ I thought poker was just a game of chance.” Then I was fascinated by this game and now I read almost more about poker than I played.

How have you progressed as a player from your sessions at the Mayfair Club?

I think I’m better, but Sharkscope disagree [laughs]. My results are not terrible and I go up and down continuously. When I travel I play sit-n-gos online. I play three or four at once, but it becomes robotic. Now I try to understand the cash games – I play sometimes Commerce – but it’s really difficult. In the end I think I take more pleasure in watching or reading about poker, and when I received an offer to host the High Stakes Poker was in shock because it’s one of my favorite shows.

Norm MacDonald

It must have been difficult to get into the clothes of such a role so quickly: what was the most difficult in the presentation of HSP?

I do not know [laughs], we have not yet registered. We shoot tomorrow and Wednesday and I think we will shoot two episodes. Like I said, when I called I was shocked because Gabe Kaplan is a great presenter who knows a lot about poker and is also a great actor.

I grew up before the show Welcome Back, Kotter, which was great. Certainly I do not know much about poker that Gabe and I would have preferred to replace someone else. I’m pretty nervous, you know, because HSP is my favorite show and I do not want to put the issue on the ground [laughs].

Some think that being alone is difficult to comment, but you be made ??famous solo on Saturday Night Live. Do you like this format?

But I do not think we’ll do a lot of “hand by hand”. Viewers clearly see the hole cards and the flop, I do not see why I repeat. And poker is great because you always try to put you in the head of the opponent and guess what they will do. Unfortunately, when I do that I forget what I’ll do it myself, and I lose [laughs].

How did you prepare for the show

I watched a bunch of recordings of HSP and episodes of Poker After Dark with some friends of mine. I also read a lot about poker and watched videos of players on YouTube .

Which players are you looking forward to seeing in action?

All businessmen are cool to watch because they are millionaires and do not make sense with money. In general, sharks can frighten their opponents with check-raise really important, but these guys have so much money that it did not matter to them.

I’m also eager to see Vanessa Selbst because I followed his career at the WSOP and is one of the players I looked on YouTube. His hand against Robert Varkonyi shows how strong she is, it’s a great tournament player. It will be interesting to see how it comes out in cash games.

Are you surprised by the amounts wagered?

This is madness. I remember an episode of HSP between Daniel Negreanu and Gus Hansen has a square where Hansen and Negreanu a full house. There are nearly $ 180,000 in the pot, Negreanu think forward and during this time Doyle Brunson discusses whether Robert Duval is a good actor or not [laughs].

Side-bets are crazy too because these guys are already playing for big money. I think those who take the paris have an advantage because everyone thinks they do not really care [laughs]. But when you look at the video montage you realize they were very careful to detail. These guys play really high level.

The schedule of the WSOP has just been announced, do you know which tournaments you will play this year?

Not yet, but I’m not going to play a lot a lot of hold’em. I really want to learn other games like Omaha. We’ll see come summer.

Besides HSP you animate a show on Comedy Central called The Sports Show. Tell us about this project.

NM: The Sports Show is a show about current competitions in sport. I love sports and poker because you can scream and you chew out with friends on this and everything works out in the end because it does not really matter. When we did “Weekend Update” on SNL everyone thought I liked politics, but if you have a discussion about politics or religion there is always someone who feels hurt. With sports can be broken out and no one feels targeted.
