Prahlad/Lisandro clash

johnnyrocket · #1 03-01-2007, 12:40 PM

I've been meaning to post this for awhile, I saw it again last night and it entertained me so i am throwing it on here.

Deep in the ME, like 30 something players left. Prahlad and Lisandro at the same table. Avg stack is about 2.4M and the ante is 5K. Prahlad accuses Lisandro of not putting in his ante and continues to push the issue over such a small amount.

I know Prahlad is a genius and I think he intentionally did this just to get under the skin of his toughest opponent. He then goes on to make 2 huge bluffs on him and then show his cards to tilt him farther.

I was wondering if everyone else sees this as genius on Prahlads part or if u think he actually cared about the ante. I dont think he did and he kept calling him sir instead of Jeff, brilliance, let me know what you thought about this hand.

Prahlad is known as a poker purist and I don't think he would intentionally try to tilt someone with false accusations or anything shady like that. I just don't think that's his style.

It seemed like he was genuinely obsessed with that one damn ante and then the bluffs were out of anger since Lisandro threatened to take his head off.

interesting responses, that is true that he went way too far, i dont think he would have to just tilt him but fun to think about, the bluffs were awesome

I was at the table playing with those guys at the time, and it looked to me like Prahlad was doing that to put Lisandro on tilt and get in his head. It was pretty lame on Prahlad part to do that in my opinion.
Also the fact that Dustin Holmes just sat there and shrugged his shoulders about it the whole time. If he really thought that he (dustin) put in his ante already he would of said something about it.

Nice cover-up. We all know it was YOU that didn't ante!

On a serious note, I thought the whole thing was strictly to put Lisandro on tilt.

When did I say he wasn't gloating? When did I say anything that contradicts the fact that he was gloating? Seems like you're the blind one to me.

Lol? Umm when you said he was "genuinely obsessed with that one damn ante". If you can't make the connection I can't help yo. Amazing.
