Hand from famous Swedish Poker writer (Dan Glimne). Retarded thinking?

[fsista]

He posted this hand on a Swedish newspaper site where he writes about poker. (Note that I describe the hand as he said it happened, it is actually impossible that this hand happened)

Blinds are 1000-2000. Ante is 300. Game is 8-handed.

Utg+1 raises "a small amount", UTG has 6900 behind. Dan Glimne calls from CO-1 with Kh5h and has approx. 15 000 behind, CO calls as well with 35 000 behind.

Flop comes 9h7h5c. UTG+1 open pushes 6900 and creates a 17 400 chip pot. Dan Glimne ... Folds. (Because he can't call, and he's afraid that CO will raise behind him and shut him out).

The hand is at the bottom, in Swedish though.

Translation:
"Mörkarna" = Blinds (pl.)
"Före floppen gjorde stol 2 en måttlig höjning" = Before the flop seat 2 (Utg+1) made a small raise.

"Nu har floppen landat på bordet, och stol 2 går genast all-in med sina resterande 6 900. Totalt ligger det i detta ögonblick 17 400 i potten. Du har just nu cirka 15 000 kvar i marker, och stol 5 över 35 000. Det är din tur att tala. Vad gör du? Tänk efter och analysera situationen! ”Rätt svar” finner du längst ned på sidan

Rätt svar ... Jag slänger mig därför."

= "After the flop, seat 2 immediately pushes all in with her 6 900 chips. The pot is currently 17 400. You have approx. 15 000 chips. Seat 5 has 35 000. It's your turn to speak. What do you do? Think and analyse the situation. 'Correct answer' at the bottom of the page!

Correct answer: ... I therefore muck. (Motivation is he doesn't know how well co likes his hand".

I'd never fold this. Seriously. The hand is impossible to have happened as he described it though. Since there has to be over 23k in the pot IF utg+1 raised pf.

Let's all mail him at dan.glimne'at'aftonbladet.se and tell him how badly he played that hand! SPAM -_-

Glimne is highly overrated IMO. His book is pretty much a swedish-copy of TOP.
And his commentarys during "pokermiljonen" (swedish tv-pokershow) is often faulty. I totally freak out when he gets excited about some amatuer making "great calls"... I would call them braindead calls witch are extremely unlikely to be good.
