Ricky Zilem at the circuit

I can understand people doing donk moves but I don't think Kido's donk move was really donky at all. It's a big tournament and people will call with flush draws. Ricky called Kido's raise with QQ, and he had 62 of hearts. Flop came undercards with two hearts, Kido checked, Ricky raised, Kido re-raised, Ricky went all in and after awhile he called.

If I was new to poker I would be pissed, but some people take loose risks.

I just laughed at the way he was whining afterwards, as if he's never played poker before. Do people seriously expect there to be no luck in poker? Not to mention it was pretty donkish imo to reraise all-in with QQ after getting check-raised on a JTx board.

People who just call pf with QQ are bad.

Well Kido was an aggresive player and I guess he wanted to trap him. Flop was okay, but he got re-raised. Tough situation for him, I guess. I can't blame his move, he did have the best hand anyways.

Kido can play bad poker because he was chased by the VC.

Ricky was such a loser for nearly bustin out into tears and for being too emotional to talk with the cameras. He somehow thought it was unjust for a person to call off their chips on a flush draw. What a loser.

Ricky Zilem is the biggest donkey Yet to play at a TV table. The guy acted like a complete puss, when he should have said a prayer for making it that far. I know people who play 1 2 at foxwoods who could ahve put on a better poker performance at that final table than he did.

Yeah, that's also true. He's only been playing for 9 months and he made several luckbox donkey plays to even get that far. Then he has the gaul to shed tears after somebody finally gets lucky back at him. Restitution Rickster. Restitution.

No, you're required to raise pre-flop with big pocket pairs. I read it in a book somewhere. I'm pretty sure it's a rule, but it might just be a courtesy.
