bill chen hand

[gilbert]

I was sweating a game that he was playing earlier because I've heard he is a tough hu player.

This hand came up and I thought it was kind of interesting. I'm not sure what was going on.

maybe he has weird stats on the player but the button just sat down and this was the second or third hand they had played. the button also short bought, fwiw.

Apart from the PFR this seems pretty standard. That's a terrible flop to miss. Bill sensibly gives up, and button's just trying to get to showdown cheaply.

Chen tried to steal the blinds and checked it down after he missed...the other guy missed too with a hand you can call a small raise on the button and missed also.

both players thought; "screw it, i don't feel like making a move on this hand"

...push the button off a low quality hand

maybe the other guy ("who short bought") was playing uber-tight and Chen had the ability to push him around!?

I'm pretty sure no one in the history of the world has ever limp/folded in HU Limit. Certainly not at this level.

haha, touche'

i was just trying to give a reason why Chen out of position would raise with that hand then check it down...
