Very true.
I think what I meant was how, often do you raise with 6 high, and get called in two spots and still rate to have the best hand. |

I am getting really tired of watching 300/600 with sometimes a 1200 straddle. I want to see at least 600/1200 with a 2400 straddle (sometimes a 4800 double straddle). Cmon guys up the stakes already!

This episode sucked. If I want to watch people play any 2 for any pre-flop raise I can go to Commerce and see 150 tables of it. I thought Phil was in a tough spot with the nines against Sammys AK even given how many hands Sammy plays. This looked like a genuine read and Phil seemed really nervous when he moved in. I try to not hate Jamie Gold but calling a clock when there is over 200,000 in the middle is a prick thing to do.
I like how you could see a little of the dark side of poker when Sammy is obviously getting angry more because he is losing than because of the sweaters doing whatever they were doing behind him. The fact of the matter is that most degenerate gamblers are jerks and even more so when they are losing. I dont think for a second that Sammy is playing somebody elses money. I think it is a joke when Sammy implies that he is being staked. I think he is smart enough to know it is a joke because he is obviously pissing his money away this episode. fwiw yoga |

And Eli calling there? he and Sammy must be playing the same money. [/ QUOTE ] You say that as if Eli should have folded. |

How great a game is it when you raise it up to 8000 (big raise) with the 6s 5s and the first two hands that can't wait to call you, you have totally crushed. [/ QUOTE ] The fact that the raise was made by a guy they all thought was a tournament player with a minimum buyin and probably not gambling too much makes those calls even more WOW worthy, and ofcourse Eli's AQ is the nuts in that spot. |
