"Ed "The Cajun Squeeze" Pellegrini lays down pocket aces 3 times while on the bubble."

Is this a joke? Who does this? [img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img]

Maybe someone with an overdue mortgage payment...

I've seen strange things on the bubble.

i stopped at bay101 yesterday on my way home from work since i was picking someone up at the airport about 2 miles away from bay101 and their flight was late. I saw the sebok monster double up and nenad medic stack some huge stack to make his big stack even bigger. when i first got there i thought medic was patrik antonius, but yeah, he was just equally dreamy. It was crazy in there though, the railbirds were rows deep.

It gets better. The second time, he laid down the aces to a David Williams open raise! Of all the people to NOT lay down aces to, David is in the top 3. If $15,000 is life-changing money to you, perhaps tournament poker is not your thing...

What the f does David Williams have to do with laying down Aces preflop? If it's Ivey you can consider folding them?

I think the point was more that someone like David Williams would be a good candidate to play back at with a good hand that isn't AA, since DW likely has crap and is trying to abuse the bubble.

If this were a satellite bubble, I could understand. But in this case, that is just awful.

In fact, the opposite is true. You want to be up against a loose caller with AK.
