I like how he only bets on the river when he's behind.

To be fair, though, this might be part of an overall strategy of mixing up his play. We didn't see other hands, so he might be value-betting more frequently on the river in other places.

That said, they do show the biggest hands, and if he's not value-betting in big hands, that's pretty bizarre.

Also, the idea that you'd need to be a good player to own Farha on these episodes of HSP is pretty funny. I really respected his play in other seasons, but I think he's pretty clearly playing like a tilt-monkey this season.

God you guys are so dumb. Obviously he doesn't value bet, cuz he wants to win by bluffing! It's not about the money, it's about the respect of being the best bluffer in the world. That's why he tries to let people know when he has top-top so that they can just fold - he doesn't want to play hands where he's ahead.

I actually liked how JG played this season (yes, those two value bets he lost and the 88 call weren't good at all). However, he improved a lot since last season.
What I'd tell him is to STFU. He's not playing 1/2 with his friends....those guys analyze every single word that comes out of his mouth so giving them more info is very EV-

lol jamie gold plays terribly still..... plz ppl stop being results oriented.

mike baxter is up quite a bit on HSP4, but he is pretty terrible.........

[Arito]

He said he will never be the best player out there, and I'm pretty sure he thinks every player at the table except perhaps Safai and Baxter is better than him. Give the guy a break.

[Shizzle12345]

Baxter is way better then gold.
