Did I just see that? Mike Baxtor had a brain fart. WTF was that AI with KQo?

And Eli calling there? he and Sammy must be playing the same money.

West Coast viewer. LOL.

The only way the play makes sense to me is that Baxter thought he had 10 outs, and thus had the odds to call. He actually did have 10 outs against Sammy. His blunder was that he forgot about the pre-flop raiser who had yet to act behind him (or maybe he thought Eli would not overcall without a monster). In any case, he was marginally correct to call if all parts fell into place, but idiotically wrong if they didn't.

Don't forget also that Jamie Gold was in the pot as well, after Baxter. Though Gold looked uninterested he cannot be immediately put out of the hand because as we know he tries to be the biggest actor in poker.

Just a ridiculous, ridiculous play by Baxter...and yeah I don't know how Elezra called.

Pretty ridiculous shove by Farha too, though it was better than Baxter and Elezra's play.

Jamie wasn't just disinterested, he actually folded out of turn, and I don't think he got them back. He was not a factor in Baxter's decision. If Baxter had called Sammy with tw players behind him, it would have been even more idiotic.

Gold wasn't in the pot. He folded out of turn before Baxter acted.

FWIW I read on some poker blog (no idea, dont think it was famous) or something that posted spoilers like 2 months ago. It said that in one hand phil hellmuth went into the tank for close to 10 minutes before scooping up a big pot.

I'm guessing this may have been the hand.

Lol at you guys thinking they didnt edit it on TV and he was only thinking for 20 seconds.

I highly doubt Jamey would say anything if it was less than 5 minutes.

I was so happy when Eli hit that Q...

That depends on where you are I think. And I fail to see how they are any less legal than a youtube vid.
