Re: High Stakes Poker thread (10/1) (Spoilers?)
[ QUOTE ]
(For those who don't know, Phil Hellmuth once lost 10K prop betting that the opposite was the case with AKo vs AKs). [/ QUOTE ] He explained on the Premier League SNG series (UK) that he thought he was set up. Devilfish was making fun of him for losing 10K for thinking something so stupid. So he told a story that shortly before making this bet, he had had a conversation with a guy who said he ran a "computer simulation" (what is this, 1987?) with those hands, and AKo came out a slight favorite, and he was convinced. I guess he's claiming that he's never used a hand calculator online (like at cardplayer.com, who he writes for), otherwise, why give credit to some guy who claims to have run a simulation? He said he thinks the person he ended up betting with later on was in on it with the computer simulation guy to set him up.

Re: High Stakes Poker thread (10/1) (Spoilers?)
Didn't read the thread since I am in the middle of the show, but....
How stupid can that Daniel Negreanu be? "Heyyyy Jamie Gold, I can totally tell when you are bluffing! Don't try to bluff me, cause I have a perfect read on you!" Surprisingly he did not explain to Gold what the tells are.

[/ QUOTE ] didn't jen say she'd tell jamie after the taping? i mean, what's that about? both her and daniel know when the guy is bluffing and they want to wise him up as to what his tells are? whatever happened to never giving a sucker an even break?

Re: High Stakes Poker thread (10/1) (Spoilers?)
Even though he didn't take insurance yet, why exactly does Hellmuth do it? It's very clearly a bad bet and we know Hellmuth's net worth is in the hundreds of millions, he's one of the best in the world and can easily rebuild, why is he concerned about losing 100k?

Re: High Stakes Poker thread (10/1) (Spoilers?)
Heres something funny to think about....what players out of last eps. lineup would have folded Daniel's hand in same position etc.
I say Hellmuth and Gold. I think Baxter, Eli, would end up calling and Farha and Safai would be in the pot immediately.
