"Official" Poker After Dark thread (Week 6 - Poker Commentators Week)

[kflop]

I think Howard and Gabe played a lot together over the years and are familiar with each others game. They know what the other guy is capable of. Howard had position and basically outplayed a good play by Gabe in that one hand. There was a similar hand last night.

Howard Raises pre-flop with Q9 or close, Gabe calls with K10
Flop 244
Howard bets,
Gabe calls,
Turn 2, check, check
River 5, Howard gives up and checks, Gabe bets 10k (I think to make Howard throw away an ace). Would Howard have thrown away an ace? Anyway, if Howard had position in this hand, it would have played completely different.
