High Stakes Poker thread 3/26 (Ivey and others)

"Speaking of Sbrugby's tells, what's up with him covering his mouth with his monstrous hands when he's in some pots, but when he was just firing off a standard cbet against Daniel's set, he didn't bother, and then didn't cover up for the turn or river either. I wonder if we saw 100 hands by him if there'd be a correlation between him covering his face and the strength of his hands."

Actually he covered his face when he had KQo on the J83 board and raised Antonio.

"Also him asking Daniel how much he's playing is a tell that he is drawing, even though as noted Gabe has no clue about why he asks that. But that's just a common way to figure out if you have implied odds, you see people live doing that a lot with small pocket pairs preflop to a raise, seeing if they can call. Big tell."

Uhhhhh, why? You wouldn't want to know how much your opponent has behind with any hand you plan on continuing with?

Townsend seems like a tellbox, judging by how people play against him. I imagine that for every painfully fake tell like hand over mouth, or handling chips more awkwardly than paralyzed kid from WPT final table, he has two or three tells that he's unaware of. Has anyone ever misread sbrugby in a big pot on HSP?

Daniel obviously did on the 77 vs. 86s (open-ended straight draw) hand. Daniel never would have just called the check-raise on the turn if he though Brian was on a draw. I'm confident Daniel put Brian on a pair of Kings that called with overcards on the flop.

Jamie Gold after Brian turned over AK on a ATTTx board: "Really?"

Not a big pot, not a great player, but definitely a major misread. Also, Jen Harman seemed to genuinely (and wrongly) think she was bluffed after a folding a 2nd pair type hand to Brian's river bet earlier in the season.

-The initial cut-a-way to Antonio during the hand b/t Laak & DW was GOLD. The guy is enjoying himself more than anybody.

-Why was David's last name misspelled during those first few hands? Jeez post production, they fixed it later but it stuck out to me. A lot like DW's play, he's a stubborn sum-ma-ma...Also get rid of that gaudy, corny chain sir. Obv. he lost a prop bet and had to wear it on the show(hoping...)

-Is any1 else watching the show and guessing what the ppl will bet w/ some hands? Like w/ that KK hand Aba had, I was saying to myself, "He's gonna bet $5,200" and sure enuff...*Pats self on the back* BTW gg on that last one vs. Negreanu, ouchie boo boo.

Right, if he had him on a draw he wouldn't have bet the river, especially as some draws hit.
