Rate Tom Mcevoys play.
 

Tom talks us through a 55 turbo on stars.

He talks us through another.

I think he shoulda pushed the J8 the time he was in the BB and Vipers called from SB. I also don't really like his QJ call when he had 4bb behind. But its not totally out of line. He played it almost the same way i woulda.

Re: Rate Tom Mcevoys play.
 

The j8 hand was definitely a push IMO.

The 910s hand was closer than he made it out to be. If the blinds were 200/400, there would be a 100% chance I would have pushed.

His JQ hand where he called and wanted to reevaluate later I thought sucked. Gotta make a decision preflop.

Folded to SB j5 should be a push IMO.

Same sentiments here. I think the Q5o hand in the 2nd one is a clear call though. 525 more at 3/600 so he's almost getting 3-1 on his call.

Re: Rate Tom Mcevoys play.
 

I just started watching the first one: No big deal, but he starts off by saying that the odds of any two suited cards making a flush by the river are 3.3%, but I think he's confusing numbers, I think the odds of any two cards making a flush by the river are 6.5%, while the odds of being dealt any two suited cards are 3.3 to 1. Just nitpicking.

I also think the call with QJo was wrong, and I would have pushed more hands when the blinds got high (and his stack was small). BTW, I watched it while 4-tabling the $22's. I got 5th, 2nd, 1st, 1st. Listening to his voice is +EV it seems. [img]/images/graemlins/wink.gif[/img]

Checked the first one and I think he did fine. It is very hard to play poker when the deck is as cold as it was for him.

I'd pushed the J5 hand.

I agree except for the QJ, I think the call preflop is okay, but only if you intend to push any flop.

Who is this guy in the backround sucking Tom's dyck?

BTW, it seems like hes awfly weak-tight. Some of those hands later on are pushes.

Re: Rate Tom Mcevoys play.
 

I haven't finished the first one even, but I have to go.

I thought the QJ was played well. He didn't say, but I think he would have pushed if he missed.

I would have been more aggressive in at least 1 spot later in the game and maybe 3 spots.
