Youre missing that fact that Doyle knew he could find a better spot to pick off Gold. Why go with the 3rd nuts there when youre reading someone as very strong and he'll probably hand you all his money later? Very nice laydown by Doyle, esp. against someone like Gold.

Never mucking a winning hand means never ever mucking a hand - unless you cheat or something.

Yes. You must not understand poker that well.

I believe this is spot on and against Gold's reasonable range in an 300/600/1200 game with 500k$ stacks is any overpair

[/ QUOTE ]

Overpair to the ace?

[ QUOTE ]
any pair

[/ QUOTE ]

Yeah, he's going to vb check-raise $100K with a pair. Sure.

[ QUOTE ]
any two pair, any set, any flush and the straight + the occasional bluff T-high flush plays so well thats its absolutely ridicilous to even consider folding.

You don't seem to grasp Doyle was going on a read that Jamie was extremely strong. His speech and gestures were oozing confidence.

And something that I don't think has been mentioned is that QsTs was probably the most likely hand for Doyle to have himself (he led into a big field of limpers on a KsJd4s flop, and then bet the turn when checked to after both the flush and OESD draws hit) and yet Jamie didn't seem worried about that hand at all. Granted, he might not have even been trying to put Doyle on a hand, but more likely, at least in Doyle's mind, it meant Jamie must have had the Qs.

anyone else hate that they have to have the big stacks of cash to add to the "hish stakes" effect? what's wrong with just giving them 50 5k chips

Gabe had bricks of 1 dollar bill stacks...and it looked awesome.

Sometimes the look of your stack is more important than the size. Mind games.
