Re: Losing 300k in 200/400 PLO? Tony G strategy, move up to 500/1k PLO
[ QUOTE ]
A german poker pro once said in an article that he used to play in russia and the games were really soft. But one day some someone came up to him, saying: "From now on you play for me" He left Russia immediately. Russia is not save, especially not for foreign people. Russia is still corrupt, so i doubt that many players will start playing there. Just look at Putin that dictator-douchebag [/ QUOTE ] I wouldnt consider the USA as very save either.. I have no idea how rich he is but considering he is a pro and he plays in a 1k-2k game i d assume he has much more then 20m obv ? ..

Re: Losing 300k in 200/400 PLO? Tony G strategy, move up to 500/1k PLO
I am from Russia, and I am not suprised that there are such big games going on in Moscow. There are so many rich people there, and they made their millions(some even billions) in pretty short period of time.They were people with the everage income and now they are super rich and they want everything the best and the biggest:aeroplanes, fancy cars, huge houses and if they decide to gamble, they want the biggest game.
Also I think russians have a lot of gamble in them just like asians, arabs, scandinavians and americans. Btw I think it is pretty safe for the high limit pros to come to Moscow and play in those games, it's not 90s anymore when it was very dangerous and just [censored] crazy.

Re: Losing 300k in 200/400 PLO? Tony G strategy, move up to 500/1k PLO
"Now comes the biggest hand of my life so far. I hope I can play as there is a mandatory straddle of 7k and a reraise. I re-pop it to make it 85k before the flop with 4 way action. The flop is 10-7-6 with 2 diamonds giving me a nut flush draw, there is a bet of pot but the guy is close to all in so I move over the top and get called by a big stack. 3.15 million in the pot now. The cards are shown. They both have the nut straights, with one guy having a flush draw as well and the other guy having one diamond so just 6 outs for the flush or I need a pair and an Ace from space. The turn and river are both Diamonds"
can someone please translate this? why does he shout on the second diamond? what are his cards? why does he hope he can play? how can he raise a pot sized bet of 85k get called and finish with a pot of 3.15million?? also who risks over a million dollars on a flush draw?
