Re: WPT - Party Poker tonite
 

Lol, and in the previous hand, A high called down. Was the guy with the queens watching?

To a bet and a raise, that's usually the correct play. If he couldn't get Darden out of the hand, he would have lost to Darden't two-pair anyway.

I don't mind the cold-call with QQ pre-flop. With judicial use, it can be a good play. Of course, it's far better with AA or KK.

Re: WPT - Party Poker tonite
 

I wasn't really paying attention to the hand, just heard "calls with A WIRED MONSTER PAIR OF POCKET QUEENS" and then turned my head to see him fold.

In that context it was the right play post flop, but it still made me giggle.

Forgive my ignorance b/c I play SSHE, but how does Darden call that guy down on the first hand? Is it because he probably has a read on him from previous play in the tourney, or was the guy's bluff a common bluff line?

Just curious because I prolly would have folded to the turn bet.

Re: WPT - Party Poker tonite
 

See, the same guy just made it work with JJ.

The bet by the guy with AJ on the river was poor after he's been called twice. AJ is the nut no-pair. If somebody is calling a bet on the flop and turn on a drawless board, they're usually not folding the river nearly enough with a better hand.

Re: WPT - Party Poker tonite
 

Yeah, it must have been knowledge from other hands in the tourney.

Re: WPT - Party Poker tonite
 

That guy has a tell, when he's bluffing his hair gets uglier than usual.

This David guy is awesome, that two is WRONG.

Re: WPT - Party Poker tonite
 

I don't remember the specific cards. But, this should be close enough.

Okay. The kid from Minnesota gets assclown points for screwing up the quote. Bah. "Even a blind squirrel can get lucky once in a while."

As moderator of this forum, I'm not going to put up with these kind of insults targed at TV players.

So, why don't you make like a tree, and get outta here.

95 vs A3
 

I thought it was interesting that Paul Darden bet out on the river OOP with his low two pair after he got raised on the turn when his opponent outdrew him to make two pair (AA33). The flop was checked through. Do you think Paul was planning on folding to a river raise? Or did he want to make a dangerous 3bet with the flush and straight out there?

guys, i was talking about Shana. [img]/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img]

Re: WPT - Party Poker tonite
 

Some of these plays are pissing me off in their fishiness. Why it should piss me off who knows.

Edit to say Adam is pissing me off.

Re: WPT - Party Poker tonite
 

Most of them are just annoying, Darden and the Air Force guy are the only ones who are vaguely likeable, (maybe the guy who declined 6K to play in the tournament too) and I'm not even much of a Darden fan.

Adam looks like a super donk created by the Matrix.

I don't know, it's making me mad too. WTF was up with all that raising when Paul was all in???

Yup. Besides him screwing up the blind squirrel bit, it was also annoying when he was snippy about losing with his deuces to treys. You just hit a massive suckout with T2o. Now you are going to gripe about suck-resuck? Please lose. That is all.

Re: WPT - Party Poker tonite
 

The one dude I like is the Indian looking kid who just shuts up and plays good poker.

Edit to say I also like Michael.

Re: WPT - Party Poker tonite
 

THIS IS NOT IRONY VINCE VAN PATTEN.

What in the hell is going on in this hand.

Woah, this dude is from Storrs? I could've sworn they said Ivy Leaguer a minute ago, but who lives in Storrs who doesn't go to Uconn..

Re: WPT - Party Poker tonite
 

These players are so fishy. The Indian and the miitary guy need to move to higher limits where people will respect their bets. [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

Re: WPT - Party Poker tonite
 

I can almost sense the new generation of superfish rushing to register for Party after seeing this.

Re: WPT - Party Poker tonite
 

this Adam kid is HORRIBLE. it amazes me how some of these players make it so far.

Weak-tight players fold their pair of 8's?

Re: WPT - Party Poker tonite
 

Adam is a very typical Party Poker player.

I had dinner with Mattthew, Edtost, Merctec, and LuvToDriveTT at Borgata a while back. That was shortly after this tournament was played. He didn't mention it at all. I didn't know that he had made the final table until TT told me later. He is modest and a very nice guy.

Re: WPT - Party Poker tonite
 

omg, I hate Michael, god, i hate him. is he really a professional?

Re: WPT - Party Poker tonite
 

Does the Clarkmeister Theorem hold in tournaments? Should Matthew have bet when the fourth club came on the river?

Re: WPT - Party Poker tonite
 

He played the hand with 88 pretty well, but those suckouts that they show just make me hate him!

Re: WPT - Party Poker tonite
 

This is a random tangent, but why is "colonel" pronounced like "kernel"? I've never understood where that came from...

Some of you guys should just stop watching poker on TV. You don't seem to find any joy in it. It seems everybody is annoying to some of you.

But it is different people that annoy each of us.

Also, player-hating is part of the fun.

Re: WPT - Party Poker tonite
 

I really like the guy, he's making all of the little annoying comments that are usually just stupid, but he's getting under his opponents skin so perfectly, and looks like he's having an amazing time.
