Re: WSOP on ESPN thread (9/18 - Day 4)
[ QUOTE ]
From all the older footage I have seen since before last year really he always seemed to handle himself with class and dignity for the most part. I wonder what brought on this desire to make a total fool of himself all the time incessantly raving about his tiny piece of plastic. [/ QUOTE ] Maybe it has something to do with all the air time people get for acting like douchebags instead of playing good poker. Playing good poker wasn't getting his stupid mug much coverage. Why not resort to yelling about how you have the best hand and how hungry your "chark" is? |

His style only works when eventually you get a hand better than bottom pair and you get paid off huge. :\ I think he's playing well and I'm sure they're only showing hands where he gets called. [/ QUOTE ]I don't really like Dario (or playing against him), but I do like to watch him play. Who didn't see that woman was going to CS off her stack after calling down with K9? I like how espn "told the story" of his play and made it look like the way to beat him is check calling every street. |

[/ QUOTE ] I think by the time he had gotten his stack, word out on Dario was that he was a bluffing maniac. Calling down with K9 on a QQ9xx board is utterly standard. Why on earth would he bluff with 3rd pair there? Did he really think he could fold out a 9? |

[ QUOTE ] [ QUOTE ] I wish they would have showed that girl's bustout hand. btw Maria Ho...so so hot! [/ QUOTE ] Dario Minieri Wins A Monster Pot and Eliminates Deb Blair After Minieri raised before the flop Blair called and they saw a flop of 7 [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] 5 [img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] 4 [img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img]. Blair bet 110,000 and Minieri called, and the 3 [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] hit on the turn. Blair bet 200,000, Minieri moved all-in, and Blair called for her last 949,000. She turned over pocket Tens, but Minieri turned over J [img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] 6 [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] for the straight. And after the 2 [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] fell on the river Blair was eliminated and Minieri's stack soared up to 2.625 million. [/ QUOTE ] For those criticizing Minieri's play as too over-aggro, a hand like this completely justifies it when you've got donks calling off so many chips here with TT. [/ QUOTE ] Also, he's got people with TT afraid to raise him PF even when they know he's playing with any 2. Still, he appears fairly reckless to me (from what ESPN has shown us). He has enough chips to win big pots and avoid big losses, but he doesn't seem to be avoiding big losses very well. -Z |

Re: WSOP on ESPN thread (9/18 - Day 4)
If Blair had been bluffing and Dario had snap-called there people would be saying how he pwned her...or if she folds there people would say how he pwned her. I think the fact that Dario sort of represents the young internet player and Blair represents some 40-ish female means that a lot of the opinions here are going to be skewed.
I don't think you'd have to sit at the table for long to know what he's (usually) up to and during these big tourneys you might be at the same table for hours and hours. She probably knew that she might be crushed but she also knew that she couldn't just let Dario continue to take pot after pot and in that spot she felt she had to call. I'm sure he's very good, and very possibly better than Blair (don't know)...but give the woman some credit. |
