take a look at the WSOP O8 Event, taken down by SirScoopsalot, who we all speak of pretty highly. He was able to translate his experience into a huge win... of course he was probably trained by Gameover [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

I repeat, embrace the luckboxing. Skoal is an excellent player, but I refuse to see how pot-committing yourself (at least thats the thinking I'm assuming he went w/ since he didn't b/f to the flop raise) w/ a lead-out here on this flop is more profitable than a c/f.

The initial raiser is committed, why would he want to play this out???
