Even with serious regression to the mean, their offspring would likely be four sigmas to the right on the arrogance scale.

So...she expected you to raise-fold your AKs shortstacked?

I don't have anything to add about Chan except he briefly attended my alma mater, the Univeristy of Houston. Apparently he was in Hotel/Restaurant Management.

He was absolutely obnoxious last time he was at Caesars AC, he kept insinuating one floor was lesbian (she's not), threw the bitch comment around a lot, pretty much treated everyone like crap.

He was there for a tourney (he was actually part of the tournament's promotion), and got eliminated early. Wound up playing Pai-Gow. he did toke, but nothing outrageous. Total a-hole, they said he would have been tossed if he was an average guest.

I raised about half my stack, so odds coming back were 3:1+ with dead blinds and antes. Even if her range is only KK and AA, it's still a breakeven call. And if her range is any broader at all, the call is +EV. It was a seriously easy decision from my spot.

of course it was. I definitely have to change channels or turn off whatever I'm watching anytime she comes on screen.

I'm with you...you can't raise off half your stack then fold with AKs HU, especially versus a horrible player. Did you tell her that? [img]/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img]
