High Stakes Poker thread (11/12 - 500k Buyin - Part 2 Spoilers ahoy)

[automat]

lol at guys saying pa should´t call the flop. jamie gave that huge "wow, that feels like aces, i with it was aces" speech before the flop, indicating he has sth like 88-KK. he doesn´t have to have KK really. even if he had qq and hit a set on the flop, he gave pa perfect odds - 15.000 into a 30.000 $ pot or 3 to 1 to draw out on him lol.

i mean, he´s just terrible and make huge mistakes all the time. given that even an ace may be good, patrick is getting perfect odds to call. he might outplay jamie even if he doesn´t hit and jamie will stack off EVERY TIME pa hits.

that hand was great tv and prob the most interesting in hsp history - lots of fun to come once all the money was in contrast to negreanu vs hansen for example. i was really rooting for a king to come on the turn. bad thing is, i almost knew jamie would win most of the money. blogs were full of jamie winning big so it had to be by getting lucky in sick set-ups as he´s the worst player ever on high stakes poker anyway.

everybody´s playing him like he has his cards face up (benyamine not trying to bluff a river with ace hi once jamie starts talking, benyamine calling with 2nd pair no kicker after jamies speech, pa insta-checking behind when gold trap-checked the river oop after betting the turn etc etc.) i haven´t seen any player behave worse on the table as well. jumping around like a monkey and yelling while some other human being lost 500k is just as classless as it gets.

Why no one gives credit to Benyamine's hand with Gold? The minbetting lured Gold in, and Gold even bluff raised on river and got called. That was a great hand.

As for the hand between PA and Gold, it is fine as Gold can have some pretty strong hands like AA, KK, QQ, TT, AQ, AK, etc, may be something like KQ. PA is likely to win a lot of money if he got his money card J, which he did. If Gold did not suck out, there will be like 400 posts saying how good PA played that hand.

Umm, no? Benyamine seems to be playing really awful, but Gold was nice enough to tell him exactly what he had. DB seemed to think about folding a few times and then Gold just kept talking almost like he wanted to get caught bluffing. I dunno, DB just doesn't seem to be trying very hard in most of these hands, he tiny bets or just check-folds.

Also, hella LOL at how Jamie acted when he finally got a KK and hit the set. I guess I can see how he might be hard to play live if you never saw hole cards just cuz he would piss me off so much, but now that we can see cards he's gotta be one of the easiest people in the world to take money off of. He literally gives away his hand almost every time he's in a pot.

lol @ the people thinking limon is an idiot.

The flop call with AJ wasn't horrible but people saying it's an obvious definitely +EV call are usually the reason live deepstacked games are so profitable.

O RLY?? [img]/images/graemlins/confused.gif[/img]You must be watching a different show, because Benyamine is playing really well imo.
