Can't believe I waited so long to see Ivey play. What a disappointment.

He plays on Full Tilt. Watch him there, jeez. I mean what do people expect? It's not like he played a ton of hands.

On another note, I was hoping someone could explain High Stakes math to me. Late in the episode, Antonius (6/3 clubs)and Ivey (Ace/7) tango in a hand. The flop is 9-7-2 w/ 2 spades. The turn is an Ace, giving Ivey aces up. Isn't Antonius drawing dead here? I'm watching the episode again now (I DVRed it) and they say Antonius is 18% to win. I don't get the math. All in all, a decent season from HSP, I can't wait for the next one!

things we have learned this season: benyamine is fat, daniel N is even more annoying than previously believed, patrick antonius like to show off his sunburned chest, antonio esfandiari is a certified pimp, and brad booth does indeed speak like a canadian typically would.

Ok episode, IMO: less talk about mind-numbing drivel and MORE hands. Echoing som1 from above, even if they are inconsequencial...show it all plz. Thoughts:

-Aba played great again, contrary to the masses I actually liked his fold of the AQ off to PA for a few reasons. 1) His hand is not well disguised, 2)Even if he had the best hand preflop he wouldn't win a lot of $$$ with it and 3)Even if he IMPROVED this hand he couldn't win a big pot against PA with it. All in all, a solid fold and find a better spot situation IMO.

-Now his 3rd raise preflop w/ the AQ was another great play. It was all about who his opponents were and his projected image there. Benyamine and Ivey are 2 of the biggest gamblers @ the table. They are capable of anything, hell, Benyamine showed down J2off @ the beginning for that big pot. But him being the unknown factor that he is to them was his biggest asset in that spot.

-Ivey eating the lil fruit cup/parfait/pudding(w/e the hell it was)=Priceless

Season Grade- C (pts off b/c of the shortness of the season mostly but I just came away unfulfilled as with most things lately, I'm gettin jaded)

Uh, they were calculating the odds of Antonius making Ivey lay down 2 pair there, obviously.

this show proves that it is so much better to have the quality players than amateurs or action donks. i'd rather see tables like this all the time then have farha and elezra playing like idiots.

Loved that turn c/r by aba, esp. after yukon bet out of turn. So good to watch some real poker since Wednesday nights suck balls now.

[/ QUOTE ]

That was a litlte better than laying down AQ HU with Antonius.

[/ QUOTE ]
Agreed. Notice how he 3-bet Ivey, yet just mucked it to God. Interesting.

I don't know why but this made me lol really hard.
