Default Re: Why is Vanessa Rousso always blabbing about game theory?

Because she thinks it makes her sound smart, and others do not mention it nearly as much as her, therefore, she may be hoping she gets recognized as a leader in the field as it applies to poker. I mean, it's either her or Bill Chen, right, and who would you rather look at or listen to?

Oddly enough, Chen wins both categories.

I wonder how she can use game theory to figure the odds of a "pro" going 0-fer the WSOP when she likely played 25+ events?

fwiw anyone else think clonie butchered the hand by not c/r'ing ai on the turn or not c/r'ing flop and not donking flop and turn and then spewing off the rest against a donk station who could easily have opened with A10, AJ or even KQ...

That might be the single worst played hand in the history of poker. She made about 5 mistakes in one hand.

1. I don't even like the call out of the SB, but ok
2. Check raising out of position with a draw into 3 other players without drawing to the nuts when there are 2 of suit on the board
3. Leading again on the turn out of position when a card that hits draws comes off.
4. CALLING a raise on the turn with nothing but a crappy draw?
5. Making a $5 bet into a what, $40k pot?

Seriously this girl has zero clue what she's doing. She's obviously some kind of luckbox to have anything.

Terrrible play. Obv a donkament luck box who is fundamentally clueless.

when she lost, it sounds like she's complaining about her luck. "I lost to a set and now this..."

Lots of hate for the LADY MAVERICK on these boards, probably deservedly...she's going to read up on her textbooks tho before she starts teaching boot camp..so it's all good.

Neither of those videos showed horrible plays... they weren't good, but not crazy bad.

Tournaments are a different strategy but it also shows just how much weaker tournament players are.

It's not that different...

As noted she is a statistical outlier in poker and that meens donkaments in particular since she have made money in a few of those.
