Results oriented much? If one of the other two had had a king or whatever, you'd probably be posting about what a great read Jman made.

Jman folded in a marginal situation, that's the only thing you can say about that hand. As it turned out it was the wrong move, but it could have been right. It wasn't mathematically guaranteed to lose like a bunch of the plays the others have made (Farha's pf call with K7 vs Hellmuth, Gold's raise and subsequent checkdown vs Farha with bottom pair with 3 players yet to act behind him, etc etc).

no you're comment is results based.

when the flop comes down.. yes it's not a guarantee that you have the best hand. but, you may just.

the check on the flop was totally ridiculous. how can you disagree.

you built a 22k pot... a bet of 15 to 20 k is appropriate here. if you're called.. the way jman played the turn is much more acceptable.

once he checked the turn and farha bet 16k on the turn... how can you fold to that. do you simply run away from your hand unless you're holding the nut hand. is that what you call poker? hell, if you can be successful playing so "clench your butt cheeks" tight. and never risk a chip then maybe i should join all of you.

so... as i said before... he should have bet the flop. when he didn't calling the turn is the best option.
