Greatest call you have ever seen?

[fsuplayer]

that hand was discussed alot at the time.

summary: it was an almost routine call.

in limit stud the pots become so damned big that you are much more correct in calling on the river, even with a very weak hand.

Great calls are usually terrible calls that got lucky.

JustinA do you believe that to be 100% accurate? When one reaches down inside and they just know that their opposition has nada, and they make the call it does wonders to the whole metagame value. I have owned people because of a sick call I have made. I.M.O layne is the best in the world at this right now. He makes calls short handed and heads up, that knock the other player towards tilting.

I thought of this after remembering that insane call Mike Gracz made at the WSOP with A high. So what call left you in shock? How about online, in real life and on tv?

I'm not sure about the blinds/chip counts but I think his opponent shanjac might have been relatively short stacked. I think that's why shanjac checked the flop so he could have just enough chips to bluff the turn and still somewhat force a decision. Hopefully he will gracz us with the the details.

I think this Q high calldown was pretty funny, and my read at the time was that it was slightly +EV. The donk in the hand played just about any two before the flop, peeled with any two on the flop, and bluffed any two when given the chance:

In my home game when I bluff-bet big my jack-high on the river and was called by 34o on a A269Q board.

Calling with the nut low is so awesome.

Didn't Ted Forrest call a river bet with a pair of 2's in a stud game a couple years back at the WSOP

He called bets on every street. This was the first hand that came to my mind.
