the standard in this game is dreadful, maybe now people will understand how jman wasn't being arrogant when he said it was such a soft game [/ QUOTE ] yes.. jman really put eli and sammy to the test with his QQ hand. wooo... that was hi level poker thinking at work. he played those queens almost as good as this set of 7s . he really bet that flop well. the check on the turn. masterful. folding the best hand.. priceless. they don't come better than that guy. did you notice when hellmuth called your boy a nit noone disagreed?

wow jamie gold acts like an [censored] would be interesting to see what happened if farha bets and he says fold after all that alkt of i call...
and pretty discusting if farha is actually telling the truth about softplaing. the whole hand was a display of severe breach of poker etiquette imo and just annoying to watch. jamie gold said it was good tv but hearing someone wine for 20minutes isnt, the hand took too long.

IMO Jamie Gold was way out of line in this hand though Farha didn't help. It was like they were making some deal i couldn't figure it out. There is never any reason to be shouting at ur opponent in a poker hand, and this was just a gross blunder especially on Gold's part to be yelling instead of thinking. Both players also played horribly imo

Re: High Stakes Poker thread (11/19 - 500K buyin pt 3 - Spoilers on al
how was AA KK hand a breach?
What if sammy and gold play in a private home game HU and do this? would you care? I dont see how its any different. If you guys think sammy passed up on 180k b/c he colluding or something you are delusional. He checked b/c Gold confused the [censored] out of him. Both guys were trying to get the est deal in the hand, thats all. Its not soft playing IMO. Guy Liberte talking about his hand in the middle of a hand he is not in is much more out of line.
