i love how we have a new daily thread that flames p5s (no leveling here).

btw, can someone tell me why bax was playing 25/50? does he think he can beat it or something?

There are like 3 poker players ever to have said the words "I can't beat 25/50." Two of them died of lack-o'-balls disease immediately after saying it, and the third is probably just a rumor.

no, most good players would say that if they had any introspectiveness at all. I cant beat 25/50 today for anywhere near as much as I can beat 5/10. Maybe id be breakeven

You know what.... I feel like defending Bax. He's a very good poker player. He obviously doesn't play cash much but he has pretty sick results in online MTTs and is probably better than 99% of 2p2ers at poker and life. He made a few spewy plays at 25/50 I'm sure a lot better players have made a lot worse plays.

Wow, now I really want to dislike that guy, and you.

Bax has a lot of money and wants to gamble and enjoys the competition of poker. I'm sure he's better than some of the biggest fish at those limits and I'm sure he's smart enough to know that he can't hold a candle to Roman/the likes of.

I love the fact that p5's exists. All of you do to, right?

You do reaize the board is double paired so any 8 makes better than 5's full?

EDIT: Looked at the hand more carefully. Shover was the PFR so I doubt he has an 8.
