Yes because the only hand that makes him look like a douche is QQ. Nevermind the fact that black could have had AQ/KK/AA.

I can understand Hachem's celebration. You flop the nut flush and the other guy has pushed you all-in and the only hand you have to be worried about is a set. Seriously, 9 out of 10 people here would have done the same thing.

when you compare it to the screaming swede or those morons like the bowling guy it is "non-obnoxious", but when you compare it to a real professional (with a few exceptions) it's still obnoxious, not to mention pre-mature.

When he said it he thought he had a lock and by the look on his face think he really regretted saying it after seeing the set.

I was only posting b/c i have never heard the phrase pass the sugar in that context, i could care less if he said it with 2 cards to come, i dont get offended by everything like most people in this forum.

You don't have to get offended by something to think its a douchey remark. Okay, the line itself....cheesy.

If it was a clever line I'd say so but still make fun of the timing.

disagree. At that point in the tourny all players are prone to let off some nervous energy. How calmly would you react if you have a chance to double up in a tournament of that magnitude? What other so called obnoxious displays did you see Hachem making? Even the "mature" pros you "point out" will show emotion upon occasion --only a robot sits perfectly motionless at the poker table.

9 out of 10 people may have THOUGHT they had a lock without seeing the set, but I seriously doubt that 90% of the posters here are dickheads... I say call, turn over my nut flush, and wait to see if he fills up, because obviously the only hand that pushes there is a set, KcKx, or AcQx, and since he had the Ac and the dood would have pushed KK preflop, it was pretty obvious what he had.

I don't remember the stack sizes, but I don't think Black pushes KK preflop. Hachem raised, Black reraised, Hachem called. Nothing in that makes KK at all unlikely. Pushing would have been a ridiculous overbet there.
