That was a hell of a read he must've had on Howard.

[/ QUOTE ] did you watch the show? Ivey saying this is the worst call ever? not wanting to show the hand down? He obviously thought there was a very good chance he didnt have the best hand.

That's what most people say when they make a hero call. They don't really believe it, it's just a way to cover yourself, in case you do call off most of your chips drawing nearly dead.

I loved Lederer and Ivey in the background of Hellmuths rant just cracking up like its a $10 home game to them. Well, i guess it kinda is to Ivey.

Re: Poker After Dark thread (week of 11/12 - Show Open)
 

while Helmuth's off rambling to Shana on the couch:
Lederer: With your young ears, you can hear the analysis better than me...
Ivey: I don't know what he's saying. I don't listen to anything he says.

[/ QUOTE ] ok your right he was sure he had the best hand but was just acting.

Re: Poker After Dark thread (week of 11/12 - Show Open)
 

like Ivey said, he didn't mind losing to Howard, and I don't think he'd give hellmuth this kind of action if he had won with that 88. of course hellmuth might just check behind dark, and wait for Phil to trip up.

So who won? Friday's final segment doesn't work on the NBC website.

Details on the final hand that everyone is talking about?

Re: Poker After Dark thread (week of 11/12 - Show Open)
 

ivey limps button with 8s4s, howard raises with Kd8d. Flop comes 4d6d9h or something, ivey checks, howard bets, ivey checkraises for half his stack, howard pushes allin, ivey thinks for over 5 minutes then calls.

The whole time I watched it i was saying "CALL CALL" I don't care if he was like a 53% favourite it was still a sick call
