yeah, a think of at least some length is more likely to be a monster than an immediate move. if you really had a monster, you'd take some time to determine the most profitable line, no?

AC must be lying. How the [censored] could he fold two pair here?

[/ QUOTE ]

Forgive me for being naive, but that he's lying is surely a given here?

[/ QUOTE ]

OP believed AC and it fed his ego that he outplayed a top pro. AC was bluffing with nothing and didn't want OP to know that.

Betgo,
You are surely correct that AC was lying to his girlfriend about the hand during the dinner break in the hope that I would walk within earshot of him and I would get reseated next to him after tables got reshuffled at 90 players and use the information to bluff him later in the tournament.

I am sure that you are correct because you said so on an internet forum. And there is no chance that AC was actually playing in the way that I observed that he was playing during 6 hours at the table with him.

-Steve

"I think one of Allen's strengths is that he is capable of laying down big hands when he thinks that he is beat. If I was against a weaker player I would not have thought that they were capable of laying down a big hand and I would not have attempted this move.

Was I right in my assumtions? This time I was but I am curious if in the long run plays like this will end up with me going busto more often than they end up with me having a 100k stack to play with."


Well if we go by straight FTOP then you don't expect him to fold aces up here, right? I vote this play is busto in the long run. What say you?

Cornell,

Mostly everything I've read that you have posted seems like it's posted by a fish who has read a few poker books and watched some poker on TV and has no little idea what actually goes through top players heads.

This is a stupid penis measuring contest but in the current poker envoriment would be hard to get a bigger fish to play me HU at these stakes. And I also have the biggest penis on the internet.

Lets play 10/25 on UB until someone has won/lost 10k/12.5k.
