Raymer\'s River Woes
 
"Greg Raymer has been rivered twice, costing him $3,000 in chips. On one occasion Raymer's opponent took pocket threes to the river, and hit his set on fifth street. The other time Raymer's opponent hit a club to make a flush on the last card. "I guess I should just go all in (on the flop)," Raymer said, lementing his inability to protect a hand thus far."

It's funny. Whoever made the jopke post about how Raymer's book says to always push your stack in preflop or on the flop was actually correct. Raymer wishes he had followed his own advice.

I forgot to add in my original post that Greg Raymer sucks at poker.

"I forgot to add in my original post that Greg Raymer sucks at poker."

Yes Roland, you are probably right.

P.S. Remind us again how much money you have made at poker?
Was it 5 million, or only 4?

That was irony, not an actual opinion.

My bad, I suck at spotting irony.

Donks are probably calling pot sized flop and turn bets with pocket underpair 2 outers just so that they can say they "beat" Raymer at the WSOP.

I think you're probably close to the truth here. I'm not sure about what motivates them but it looks like the huge donkey factor is going to make this year's ME a total crapshoot.

I hate when people say that. When someone kills your girlfriend, do you say, "That's life?"
