I'm trying to see where anyone "automatically [assumed] foul play." Can you help me?

Everything else you wrote, I understand BTW. But thanks for the variance lesson.

There's a big thread going on over at HSNL about players in the 10/20 NL checking it down when it gets heads-up, but only within a certain elite group of players. That's sketchy at best, and Lee Jones said in the thread that Stars has no problem with that behavior.

Gildwulf has proven himself to be a long-term winner at BBV, and in this thread he has shown that he can take defeat like a man. I'm proud of him.
