A nit isn't raising out of the BB with KQ or 87h, get real.

[MyTurn2Raise]

at least now I know why the old man open pushes 40BBs
he's a fish postflop

gobboboy (4:45:26 AM): well
gobboboy (4:45:29 AM): when you're gonna call
gobboboy (4:45:43 AM): because you have determined that your opponent cannot do anything to tell you that you have been beat
gobboboy (4:45:47 AM): betting is kinda automatic
Mlagoo (4:46:02 AM): not really at least if you check you can get paid off by worse hands more often
gobboboy (4:46:25 AM): but you induce a shove by kings by betting
Mlagoo (4:46:29 AM): i guess, but you cant expect that, its absurd
gobboboy (4:46:42 AM): no wonder you didn't win a bracelet this year
Mlagoo (4:46:41 AM): haha

Seriously, I'm amazed by all the Yang love. Don't get me wrong. neither of them played that well, but Yang's call was not good. Big PF raise from Raymond. Checkraise on flopped ace. How can Yang not think he's dominated.

Yang obviously is favorite to win this with the huge lead, but Lam has better odds than the chips dictate.

Also, LOL to all the guys criticising Lam for folding his way to HU and over 4 million. Not to mention we've only played 150ish hands. We've seen no good hands from Lam, so I suspect he's been getting bad cards.

Except Rahme's reraise preflop noone played this hand correctly during any part of the hand.
That idiot called a big reraise preflop with a horrible hand, flopped crummy top pair in position and then commited himself by betting...After that Ramme bluff check raises being second in chips and having plenty behind to check-fold that awful flop, bluffs a retard who can never fold top pair.And just as he is about to fold, he starts talking to him and induces a call.
Insane...

I am just disgusted that this is a level of play at the ME' FT.
Well, it _is_ a donkament after all.

Thank Goodness the hockey interview is over. I live in Canada and have to suffer through enough of those.

"We're firing on all cylinders"
"Everyone is making a team effort"
"We're playing with a lot of heart"

(all in monotone voice)

We even have to put up with it in the summer. And people here eat it up [img]/images/graemlins/frown.gif[/img]

Is it strange that I could recognize the Canadian accent immediately? [img]/images/graemlins/tongue.gif[/img]

I don't care if a deal was made. You still have to put a lot of value on trying to win the bracelet.

[/ QUOTE ]

yeah def, but that old dude looked really tired for a while now, so if they made a deal, he might have finally been like "[censored] it, i have kings, im not folding"

[/ QUOTE ]

If this is his attitude, c/c the flop>>>>>c/r

[dawade]

Me and jgunnip have a prop bet on hands heads up. I say 17 hands and take under 20. Gunnip says over 20 for $10.

one thing occurs to me -- if they did make a deal during that last break, it would explain everyone playing that hand like a spaz.

[/ QUOTE ]

I thought the exact same thing.

[/ QUOTE ]

Why? There was plenty of "spaz play" earlier.

Was there a deal when Watkinson made a ridiculously large all-in reraise with A7o? And got called by Yang's A9o?

[/ QUOTE ]
yeah, but that was like, three weeks ago.

I agree that Yang's total inability to fold is open to a lot of criticism, but you do have to give him credit for having the guts to chip up so much that he can afford to push on coin flips. If you want to say that Lam folded his way to heads up, then there is something to be said for Yang's relentless aggression.
