From P5slive:
[ QUOTE ]
After losing a 6.5 million dollar pot Eric had this to say:

"I made a bad call. He check called the flop and then check raised the turn. I raised UTG and continued with it post flop, what could he put me on there other than AA, and he wouldn't play it that way unless he could beat Aces. I almost mucked it face up, but I talked myself into it. It was 2.6 million more and I could have left myself with 3.8 million and been in fine shape. Instead I'm down to 800k and it's back to short stack ninja mode."

For a guy who just dropped from 5th in chips to 26/30 he was in good spirits. It helps that his wife and son arrived at the break. Corbin Lynch gave his dad a much needed pep talk and scolding over his play this last level, and then proceeded to do laps around his Mom, Dad and Grandma, trying to escape Rizen's watchful eye at every opportunity.

Told you CP misreported it... pot had at least 650k.

Huge pot goes to Erik Friberg; Rizen is the victim. Rizen raises 130K under-the-gun. Friberg calls from the big blind. Flop comes Qc-9s-5s and Friberg checks. Rizen bets 200,000 and Friberg calls. Turn is 4c and, after Friberg checks again, Rizen makes it 300,000. Friberg now moves all-in, for about 3 million. Rizen squeezes his cards again and I see A-A. He dwells, then calls for about 90 per cent of his stack. Friberg shows 4-5d for two pair. River is a blank and the Swede scoops a 4 million pot.

[/ QUOTE ]

I really don't like Friberg's line here. How often do you get paid off when you check-raise the turn for eleventy billion dollars, setting aside that he was lucky enough to get paid off in the actual hand?

If Rizen calls with QQQ or 999 we'd all be posting about how stupid the check-raise was since OBVIOUSLY only a better hand is going to call.

If this is the best plan Friberg has for the turn then I doubt his flop call is +EV. Calling a couple large bets from an UTG raiser is only going to pay off in the long run if you have a deeper bag of tricks than this.

The little kid sounds awesome, hopefully he also brings some good luck to Rizen. Also not too suprising to hear that Rizen is still in good spirits, the guy never seems to be down or on tilt... a true pro.

well seeing that even after such a big hand he can evaluate what happened, I think he's going to be alright in ninja mode. GO RIZEN

Eric Lynch raises all-in for $600,000 from the small blind. Rich Lee calls and flips over KQ while Lynch shows Q10. The board comes J94KA, doubling Lee's chip stack up to $700,000. After this hand, Lynch is left with $1,300,000.

Lynch takes a hit, but obviously doubled up before that. Blinds also at 25k/50k, 5k ante now.
