High Stakes Poker 4/2

If Booth did in fact flop a straight, two pair, or a set i love the way he played it.

I guess this means you don't like Booth's play given the hand he actually held.

[AAmucked]

Booth is easily capable of flat-calling with AA in that spot as well

[kflop]

if Booth had a set or a straight Ivey's beat. If Booth had 89d, Ivey's like 45% and like 40% to the 56d or 46d. Ivey's fold is correct in every way. Booth just made a great play.

Ivey had K[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]K[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img]. Booth had 4[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img]2[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img].

The flop was 7[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img]6[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img]3[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img]

With 9d8d, Booth would be a 51.5/48.5 favorite.

Your 6d5d and 6d4d comments don't make sense with the 6d on the flop.

But, 7d5d would be a 54.6/45.4 favorite.

Ivey isn't going to fold if he genuinely thinks he's in a better than 50/50 situation. That's what weak players do. Ivey thought there was a high % chance he was beat.

[/ QUOTE ]
Really? I thought he was putting Booth on some sort of big combo draw and didn't want to gamble. From the sounds of it, the players at the table thought Booth had a draw as well.

Do you think if that was really what Ivey thought, he'd call because he doesn't mind dropping the 300k and reloading? Because they'd run it a couple times? Or what?

What makes you think Ivey isn't a big gambler? Everything I've ever heard about him tells me he's a big time gambler, including -EV games such as craps. He sounds like an action junkie.

Ivey had about $280,000 in front of him after the pre-flop action. There was $31,100 in the pot pre-flop. Ivey bet $23,000 and Booth went all-in.

That means Ivey had to call about $257,000 in a pot that had $334,100 in it ($31,100 + $23,000 + $23,000 + $257,000). He's getting 1.3:1 to call. Phil Ivey isn't folding getting those odds if he thinks he's 50/50.

Ivey thought there was a high probability he was beat and drawing very badly. That's the only logical conclusion to come to if you think Ivey is the world class player everybody says he is.

I didn't realize Ivey had the Kd, that changes the Ivey's odds from 45% to 48%, if Booth had the 89d. I thought the flop was 6s,37d, sorry about that. With the correct flop the 75d is exactly the same odds that the 56d would be with my wrong flop.

LOL @ kaplan saying antonius was playing scared.

[/ QUOTE ]

He didn't say that, he said the 10 scared him in that hand. The flop was J86o, Patrick had J8. He bets and JD and BT call. The turn is the 10, PA checks and JD bets 15k, Bt goes out and Patrick just calls. A 5 comes on the river PA checks and JD checks. Gabe says PA could was aware of several hands that could bet him when the 10 hit and he didn't want to go off in one hand. He sure played the hand that way. If JD bet on the river, PA would have probably called anything reasonable. Certain cards in certain situations scare the best players.

Gabe Kaplan: "All this money on the table had Patrik Antonius a little SCARED. He was AFRAID of jacks and tens...also AFRAID maybe D'Agostino...."

Uhm....ya he did..

[CaseS87]

Antonio continues to impress me with great play.

Before HSP I thought he was a tourny donk tool, but he seems pretty like-able and a real poker player too.

[MantridNinja]

very impressive play by aba
