Two Deep Main Event Runs for Livingston

Deep runs in the World Series of Poker Main Event account for not one, but two of Alex Livingston‘s craziest poker moments. After finishing 13th in the 2013 Main Event, he then finished third for $4,000,000 in the 2019 Main Event.
His other moments were flopping a Royal Flush on his third ever casino session (aged just 19!), “punting it off” with in the 2009 Main Event, and allegedly playing a 115-hour week of $25/$50 PLO during 2016, and still managing to get two rounds of golf in!
Big Victories Stand Out for Smith
With over $36 million in live earnings, Dan Smith was always going to have some big results on his top five moments. They include $3.5m in the space of two days at the 2016 WSOP. After finishing third in the 2016 WSOP $25,000 PLO, Smith max late-regged the $111,111 High Roller for One Drop, finishing second for over $3m.
Smith also included his 2012 Sunday Million win, where he won more than first prize, his deep run in the 2014 WSOP Main Event and the WPT Five Diamond – although it’s not clear whether he’s referring to his 2013 Main Event win for $1.1m or his 2017 $100k SHR win for $1.4m.
However, not all his moments were good ones, with his final one being at the 2016 Super High Roller Bowl, that Smith bubbled after being a massive chip leader.

Poker can bring you riches but it is so easy to throw away large chunks of your winnings by failing to heed some simple poker playing tips and losing your patience. These tips won't make you a millionaire but they will be very useful for the beginner. My poker playing tips have come from the experience of playing many hands so sharing the mistakes in my early days and the resultant killer poker tips will mean that you will never make these mistakes as a beginner! Mix it up -- don't be predictable. Poker is not simply about having the best hand. You can even win with a very poor hand if you bluff well enough. Don't always dump your hand if it is not a good one and don't immediately raise if you have a good one. Your opponents will see this as predictable and easy to identify behaviour and eventually will have you worked out. Watch poker on TV -- this is perhaps the easiest of my poker playing tips. There are many tournaments that you can find on TV and even some internet channels. Typically, they will show you the hole cards owned by each player which are face down on a transparent table with a camera positioned below. These pros can give you killer poker playing tips on all aspects of the game, but especially bluffing which is perhaps the hardest aspect to perfect. Play the free money tables -- all online poker rooms have free tables, also known as freeroll tables. If you are just starting out, this is the best of the poker playing tips to follow. In fact, if you are confused about the basic mechanics of the game such as raising, checking, calling etc., then free poker rooms are the best way to learn. Just learn the winning hands and forget the rest because you can learn the remainder of the game from free money tables. Play the low money tables -- once you have mastered the basic mechanics of the game, you should consider playing the low money tables. Even if you have much to learn still about poker, playing the the low money tables is one of the best poker playing tips because only here will you start to observe the unique behaviour of players when they can win or lose real money. The free tables are fun but the player behaviour is not that of true poker because players have nothing to lose and nothing to gain! Even if you are playing only very low stakes, you will see the real game and you will not be risking more than a few cents each game. Are your hole cards burning a hole in your pocket?
