Also for anyone saying Gold horribly misplayed the trip q's hands again Wasicka: clearly Gold's hand was extremely under-repped. Or are you guys too much of a results based thinker to see this? Checked to river. At this point both player could have any two cards. Gold bet out doesn't have to mean that much, especially since him and Paul had been checking down plenty of hands and could be tired of that. 9 Q Q 6 8 iirc. Paul could have easily had 10/10, J/J, any 9 - or what Gold thought: that he was just trying to take the pot away with a value-bluff raise. Now, Gold could just call but he figured that his hand was so under-repped to the point that Paul could very well easily be overvaluing himself with even A/8, and after all, it was only a min raise. And finally, Gold's raise was almost a min raise as well. How on Earth can that be a horrible overvalue??? lol, you guys. Yay, let's have a pre-constructed view of Gold via EPSN commentary or something and forever be biased because you hate him for no reason!! lolol. Alright, turns out Gold's re-raise was wrong, but the raise was so small that it was only a little bit of a mistake in a quite peculiar hand. Paul was thinking about folding to just 5k more????? Perhaps he was just selling the idea for television (or the table) that he can lay down hands if he turned out to be up against a better hand - but was never going to throw it away. But if not, then THAT was the worst and most perplexing part of the hand. And I'm not biased. I find Paul to me a much better player than Gold from what I've seen televised overall.

tl;dr

Ignoring everything else, his river b/3b is just horrendous because Wasicka is so tight. He almost laid down T7...do you really think Wasicka calls with QJ there? And that is moot anyway because Wasicka is not dumb enough to check trips IP on both streets...
