actually I agree with you, but I wasn't replying to your argument, I was agreeing with ansky's point that results are insignificant

Many of the hands that I post wouldn't be posted if I won the hand, im sure of that. But this isn't one of them.

When I cold call in a spot like Kuzak's it could be with AA (very unlikely). More likely is that I have a hand that I want to take on the shortstack without comitting too much of my stack in case someone wakes up with something behind me, and I think that is very likely with a hand like AQ/ 66-99 ish. To say that this is obviously AA, and to see otherwise is a lack in hand reading skills, is just ridiculous. We are getting a very good overlay to play at the shortstack, and without some specific reason to think Kuzak is going to have a monster here, I am not seeing monsters under the bed.

Oh yeah and lol @ Kuzak being a good player if this is clearly a monster..

Ansky,

Just because you would want to take on the shortstack without committing too much of your own stack with stuff like AQ & 66-99 doesn't mean villain plays like you.

If I ever see a single example of something done in Kuzak's spot that isn't queens at worst, I'll shut up.

Clayton,
The following two statements are mutually exclusive.

1. Kuzak is a very good player.
2. When Kuzak makes this play it must be with a monster.

Haven't we decided Kuzak is a good player? I would also be calling with hands like AQ/AJ, 99-66 and probably AA/KK. I'd push TT in mike's spot.
