This is not nearly as bad as the one I posted a month or so ago. After all, their money goes in preflop and nobody has a huge edge over the other when they both have live cards.

[WarDekar]

I agree, it doesn't make him the worst player ever. He sensed weakness with the limp and tried to steal it, it didn't work out, but he wasn't THAT much of an underdog PF.

[imcastleman]

Now, you aren't really believing he could steal with the 93o are you??? The dude only had 600 to start with, he was obviously calling any all in. Here (http://forumserver.twoplustwo.com/showthreaded.php?Cat=&Board=singletable&Number=135 6942&Forum=f22&Words=&Searchpage=0&Limit=25&Main=1 356942&Search=true&where=bodysub&Name=4971&dateran ge=1&newerval=1&newertype=y&olderval=&oldertype=&b odyprev=#Post1356942) is a link to a post I made awhile back to a REAL bad call.

[Daliman]

Sheesh, people, i guess i gotta be clearer next time.

39o on the button is a TERRIBLE limp OR raise there.

[lorinda]

It's a hideous Raise, however the limp makes it all the more comical.

Exactly, he might as well raise and hope for a misclick or disconnect or particuarly stupid opponent.

I'm not saying it isn't bad. It's obviously VERY bad, but I don't think it compares to calling all in with 2h 5c on a flop of Qh Jh 8s when you still have 555 chips in level 3 and therefore is NOT a candidate for the worst play ever.

[WarDekar]

Ignore everything I've said, I didn't look at the hand that close and thought the hands were reversed.

[WarDekar]

Doh! I misread the hands, I thought the hands were switched. Obviously that was just an absolutely horrible horrible play.

I think you and imcastleman should settle this in a televised cage match HU NL tourny -- 5000 chips each to start, blinds begin at 25/50. You each get a short break every time the blinds increase. This will allow each of you to go to your corners and get not so helpful coaching (Irie could slip you Heinekins and Giga could fight off the railbirds for his brother, 'hey, security, I told you to SHUT THOSE @#$@!# RAILBIRDS UP....!@##$%$.'

And ZeeJustin could smirk in a corner at all the bad plays you both are making only offering one word answers for why they're so poor.

I'm going to start looking for funding starting right now. (Sklansky, for one, would definitely back this event -- it's not even close so I'll let others elaborate.)

As we both noted in an earlier thread, the odds of an opponent folding for 200 more aren't 0. I think that a lot of people like to assume that it is, because they would never fold for 200 more on their 400 chip bb. But about 3 times a day, I see someone think for a long time, say something like "lol, 24o," and then fold. Granted, of late, I've been playing exclusively the 100s, not the 200s, but I saw the same crap up there when I was playing the 200s.
