Speaking of Old School...
Daniel Negreanu is telling stories from back in the ay of players who would over-sell their action. He specifically mentioned a player in Los Angeles who would triple sell his action in a $1,000 tournament. But then on top of that, he'd get a stack and swap 5% with other people in the tournament. Then he'd dump his whole stack and have a 5% freeroll with $2,000 in his pocket.
Negreanu lso mentioned a story about Eskimo Clark in which Eskimo Clark made a final table. People sweating him started talking to each other. They discovered that one guy had a third, another had a third, and another had a half! Despite overselling his action, Clark made the final table. Whatever money he took down, he promised to pay back the rest of the over-sold action to his backers.
We doubt there's anyone in this tournament who oversold his action, but certainly some of the players in this tournament are sweating others.
