Default Re: What did Yang have when Childs folded QQ?

[ QUOTE ]
I watched the whole thing, and still think it was an awful fold. I do agree with your assesment of the action and it sounds like a good justification, but I just feel like if queens are good enough to call the re-raise and then lead with, you gotta go with them there. Given what we have learned about yang , and he tendency to overvalue hands, I think QQ is way ahead of his range. I probably just shove preflop after Yang re-raises. Oh well, I think Childs freaks out when he sees this on TV (if he doesn't know already, lol)

Ok, Childs didn't [censored] KNOW HOW WILD Yang was playing yet. After it's over we can say, "Yang was a wild man who had JJ, ldo call with QQ" But at that table in real time his hand looks like AA/KK and will be AA/KK like 80% of the time. Check/folding the flop is obviously best and I agree that after leading you gotta call. But this is not the "worst fold ever". It wasn't even the worst fold at that table.
