Esfandiari scared money in this game? Just maybe?

Any possibility that Doyle and Antonio don't have 100% of themselves in this game?

- JA

I think the comment on Antonio had a lot more to do with his play with AA and check-calling all the way with top set than his apparent lack of seeing the flop.

He definitely appeared to be playing some scared money with his AA. I mean, it was like he wanted the 4th spade to come so that he could fold and not have to worry about making a real decision.

I think I read somewhere that Gold wins 400k or 600k in this session.

Wow. If true that's what makes poker great. A absolute super -EV player can win.

That guy flat sucks.

It's funny how this thread is going to be about "omg how can Doyle fold, wtf?" and if Jaime had J9ss instead of 97ss it would be "omg, Doyle is the best player ever". Either way I think you got to at least call against Jaime. I could definitely understand folding against some of the other players at the table, but not Jaime.

Esfandiari calling Sammy's A9 and Doyle's flush fold was pretty sick. He's not like Negreanu, who just says random stuff every hand and everyone just remembers when he's right.

Couple of nice folds by Sammy. He might appear as a psycho, but he does know when to fold at least.

Great episode I thought. Can't wait for the next one!

can NOT believe Doyle did not call in that spot. first, he can' simply call the bet on the turn, not expecting another big bet on the river. so the only reason he didin't call, in my opinion, is that he KNEW that he would be playing for all of his 500K and simply didin't want to put all his money in. He had the third nuts against GOLD, a bad player who bluffs way too many times... but it comes down to this: almost everyone is playing 'scared' except for Guy who is a billionaire and 500K is not like $5 to you and me. Doyle was right when he said in the preview that everyone at the table is playing above their limits, except for Guy....
