The call was 167k, with the pot already at 408. If you lay down 6's full the table will walk all over you.

I agree the check on the river was very risky. If Negreanu had flopped a straight he'd get no action. Maybe he knew DN started with a pair, but 87 suited is certainly possible. An all-in would look enough like a bluff to get a call from a boat.

65 is more realistic considering the action.

Nice edit. Why exactly is 65 more realistic, especially from Daniel's POV?

[/ QUOTE ]

Nice attitude. I didn't edit anything. I didn't mention the hands you said because they don't fit the action. Even Daniel wasn't considering them. He was most worried about 99 or 55 and not really 88 (according to his own mumblings), and I think his analysis was right on of course. He just could follow through. Lot of money in the pot.

A huge bluff is required to win a huge pot, and would probably force a laydown of trips, a straight, or maybe 65.

pretty sure this proves the show has certain hands that are fixed for TV. as ive said before on here a friend of mine heard directly from bobby hoff, who was asked to be on the show, that that was the case.

This was brought up in another thread...but Daniel played his hand like he had an overpair...which if Gus put him on that overpair, he could be making that check raise move on the river with a straight...that is ONE of the reasons Daniel called.

This was one of those what do I think, he thinks I have, kind of hands.

Your previous thread

I don't think it proves anything. I don't even think it's evidence.

Why is Bobby Hoff supposed to be a credible source about this? Why should we believe him?

I'm going out on a limb and guessing you don't play high stakes.

"Why is Bobby Hoff supposed to be a credible source about this?"

he's some sort of NL godfather and a lot of people give him a lot of props. that's all.
