Re: Question on final table
[ QUOTE ]
[ QUOTE ] [ QUOTE ] [ QUOTE ] [ QUOTE ] Reese just doubled up On a flop of 9s 8d 3d, Reese checks and Bloch bets $120,000. Reese moves all in and Bloch makes the call and shows 9 7s for a pair of nines. Reese turns over Kd 6d for a flush draw. The turn is the 5d, giving Reese his flush. The river is the Kc and Chip Reese has doubled up. [/ QUOTE ] Wow. Nice call by Andy. WTF??? [/ QUOTE ] Getting his money in as the favorite against a likely flush draw with a chance to end the match right there. Tough call, but he made the right read. [/ QUOTE ] Bad call. [/ QUOTE ] Do you honestly think that Andy Bloch is not aware of all of the reasons why you think it is a bad call, more than you are? [/ QUOTE ] good response [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

Well playing for 8 hours heads up and it's easy to make 1 bad decision. He's probably tired as hell after playing for as long as the last 2 days were I don't blame him at all ... he probably was tired and fed up and said [censored] it I got top pair i'm gonna gamble. [/ QUOTE ] i would have done the same thing.. but probaly earlier on in the HU match..

[/ QUOTE ] I really think Andy Bloch's head would explode before such a thought process entered it. If he thinks it's exactly borderline, maybe. A slightly (very slightly) more likely thought process is "my opponent is tired and fed up and there's both a flush draw and straight draw on the board, maybe he's just gambling".

Many of the early listings for WSOP events usually just show the winner. [/ QUOTE ] Ahhh!! Me so smart. I was going by the fact that they list winner and amount won and did a little math 2p2 style to figure out how many players. Be jealous of my skillz all.

I could never envision Andy making any decision without giving it some thought, especially a reckless one. This guy has a friggin' computer for a brain. Now, someone like Josh Arieh on the other hand would have beat him into the pot proudly exclaiming the fact that "he's gambooling."
