I'll throw in my thoughts since I was there.

The guy looked really strong and NCN had been playing really tight all night (although he may have gotten some residual action since he was with me and I was playing really aggro).
I thought it was pretty close at the time and I wasn't going to fault him one way or another. It really felt like a set or 52. He really didn't consider raising or folding on that flop. The SB bet 30 and NCN verbally said "100" and the guy had his stack out there before NCN. I have to think that he would think at least a little bit before 'trapping' w/ AA or AT etc...
Those quick calls are almost always a huge hand or an OESD or 4 flush from my experience.
So when he fired again on the turn and the guy jammed, it really felt stronger than it looks now in print.

All that being said, when I went back and counted it up, he's getting too good a price and I think it's probably a call.

yea i know its live and all, but this looks pretty damn strong. we're repping pretty much what we have, and he says hey thats cool i'll just raise it all anyhow.

i think it could be a solid laydown, if you knew the opponent was capable of reading hands and playing well. if he was stupid, then sure be glad to get the chips in, but i dont know if he was or not.


also, 5/10 in monterey? thats not too far from SF. perhaps its worth investigating...

hey we could drive together! i dont think driving up to Monterey is worth playing in a 5-10 game.

yea i dont think its worth going just for the game. but if i'm going down there to check some other stuff out, couldnt hurt to stack some fools too!
