Re: Who played the best/worst among the last four at the FT?
[ QUOTE ]
i can't believe how results oriented all these posts are. how can you seriously claim yang played the best when he called a three bet all in from a nit with jto? yang won. yang still played badly.
[/ QUOTE ]That was the only call he was way behind, J8 doesn't count b/c he pushed with it. The thing I want to know is why the "pros" were pushing into him with the same range he is calling with, until the final four. A7o? KQ? Lee Watkinson, for example, was not surprised that Jerry called with A9(?). If that's true and Lee knows Jerry's calling range is a pair/broadway/Ax+ then the worst play of the night, BY FAR, was him moving in with A7(?) which is ~57/43 dog to that range. KQo is about a coinflip. KJo is a slight dog but Childs made correct call due to pot size. What did Phil bust with, I forgot.
The fact is until it got down to the final four every player made either -EV or neutral plays against Jerry over and over again. Only Alex, Rahme, and Tuan (until HU) adjusted somewhat properly. Put they really didn't need to get run over preflop deepstacked, I don't understand why they didn't take more flops...
