Best P5's Post Ever?

[Stinger88]

I'm not one to bash on P5's too much, but I found this just too funny.

This thread http://www.pocketfives.com/4DB181A0-...5A05E5F89.aspx

talking about a river call mjorgenson made against Gus Hansen with 98 on a 984JT board, provokes this post:

disclaimer: I realize I'm not at this level...

Question: If Menlo thinks he's ahead, why not just reraise Gus all in on the river instead of just calling? I'm sure there's a good reason, I just don't know it yet....

Stinger you missed Menlo's reply in that thread, its equally great:

I'm not gonna go into detail about why I made this call cuz I dont really feel like it. But to the guy who is saying this call is "-ev over the long run" I am not concerned with the long run, I am concerned with this hand right now, the only thing that matter is whether or not he has it this time.

This is actually right he just phrased it poorly. It might be -EV to call this river everytime, but due to gameflow, timing tells, etc. in this specific spot it could be +EV.

ya menlos post is pretty good actually.

[caskam]

why does Menlo defend his reasoning with those board members?
