ha ha ha ha... omg he plays bad. The first hand he played he checks behind in the BB and keeps 56 vs a SB open limp (not horrible, its been debated before but I think dropping the 6 makes sense here since the pot is small and you have a connecting card). On the 2nd draw he gets a 3, and it checks through. on the third draw he catches a 4 - and keeps its! Thats right folks, he is drawing to a straight with 3456x.

dont try this at home kids... that move is only for professionals.

FWIW, the only thing wrong with this hand that I can tell is that he broke Q6543. You can run 6543 and 543 against some one card draws on twodimes, and you'll see that 6543 will generally do better. We break it earlier because we have multiple draws to make up for the difference between drawing one and two. Q6543 should be better than either of his draws, however. He shouldn't pay a bet here of course, but he didn't have to.

Ok now you have me... details please, If checked to on the last round with 3456 I always break, either your talking crazy talk or I am about to go to school. I hope its the latter.

Some examples: (Not totally accurate because of dead cards, but a decent estimation. These aren't very subtle differences.)

Opp hand, Q6, 6543, 543/6
2345, .465, .377, .372
2346, .465, .380, .365
2347, .488, .390, .322
2367, .488, .396, .322
2378, .512, .409, .348
2678, .512, .418, .349
3458, .465, .362, .348
3478, .488, .396, .358
2349, .488, .392, .346
2379, .512, .428, .363

I suppose I should do some really crappy hands as well:
3456, .593, .500, .494
3457, .535, .445, .407
4567, .628, .539, .497
5678, .651, .550, .514

I wish somebody would start spreading KCL again soon. I found all sorts of nifty spots like this that are only degenerate cases in TD but show up often in single-draw.
