Thinking or Hollywooding?

Lee Watkinson and Gary Benson were invovled in two pots. During the first one, benson opened up for a aise of 8,000 from UTG. Watkinson raised to 30,000 from the cut off. Benson went into the tank for five minutes before he folded.

On the next hand, on a flop of {A-Diamonds}{J-Diamonds}{3-Diamonds}, Benson checked and Watkinson bet 10,000. Benson went into the tabk for another five minutes before he called. The turn was the {7-Clubs}. Benson checked. Watkinson bet 20,000 and Benson quickly moved all in for his last 30,000. Watkinson folded and fired his cards into the muck. Watkinson mumbled something to the player next to him about how he though Benson went "Hollywood" on the flop call. Benson did not say anything as he stacked up his chips.

There is absolutely no way in hell I would let someone think for 5 minutes on a simple PF 3-bet or a flop cbet without calling the clock. That's totally ridiculous.

The cool thing is that Gary is the brother of a really close friend of mine, so I'm def. going to ask him about this hand next time I get a chance to talk to him.

Trust me, it's not the first time we've made fun of him for the fact that he looks like a girl during online updates.

Regardless, he's a heck of a player who really has an awesome chance to make a deep deep run in this thing.

Whoa, boy. I think Mimi has a solid, but not stellar tourament and cash game style, (and not that many players are decent at both), but I think she shows weakness in short-handed play. Sorry that we suddenly can't have our own opinions, even when they don't seem to be contricted by masses of results. Sorry to strike a sore spot, I'll check before saying anything partially negative about any of your friends, O.K.?

Hope Gus Hansen wins, that would really bring a lot of dead money back to online poker and be good for all. Plus Gus is cool, of course.
