Re: My Foxwoods Main Event Demise
The funny thing is my brother, Howard, told me this hand at dinner break. Your opponent was Lyle Berman. Howard thought you played the hand great and was shocked Lyle called with 79 before the...

Re: Annie Duke--The 10-10 Hand
The TT hand was the most interesting hand of the tournament. I was getting 3 to 1 on the pot for a call. It took me a very very long time to fold because of the large pot odds. If Greg is capable...

Re: Annie Duke--The JJ Hand
There is a lot of history to that fold. Daniel in the past really likes to push in on me with the nuts because he thinks I am a calling station. I know that about him and I felt like he really...

Re: Annie and \"play poker like the pros\"
I said this in another post but will repeat it here. When Phil doubled through me with the 333 against my 333 he had a chip lead of about 2 to 1. I got the lead back without ever showing down a...

Re: Annie, the real question...
There was no prior deal to split any money. ESPN was clear that they did not want deals. Some players did sell pieces of themselves before the event to their friends (not playing in the event. We...

Re: TT bet into flopped overpair
I really don't like the all-in bet here. With two people to act behind you you can make a bet that exercises much better stack control. Bet an amount that makes you look pot comitted--say 1100 or...

Re: Matusow\'s 97 hand vs Raymer
I am not discrediting Raymer at all here--but the man is willing to gamble--always in spots where he is taking the aggressive position which is an extremely difficult style to deal with--look at Ivey...

Re: Matusow\'s 97 hand vs Raymer
Here is my opinion--Mike had a very healthy stack at the time of the hand. If he loses the hand he will lose 2/3 of his chip stack and be left with an extremely unhealthy stack. This is very...

Matusow\'s 97 hand vs Raymer
Hi all--
I have been out of pocket for the last week and was wondering if there had been any discussion on here of Mike Matusow's 97s hand vs Raymer's AJd. I think it is an extremely interesting...

Re: Eric Seidel\'s Final Hand
Erik moved in with the K8 on a bluff. The guy behind him then made a big overraise and Erik jokingly said,"call." He was already all-in at that point of course and you would think ESPN could have...

Re: Did I overplay AA?
It is very unlikely that 45 limps first position. Also agains the paired board the straight is more likely to bet out at some point in the hand. Of course, if the guy is loose and crazy who...

Re: Did I overplay AA?
I don't like your preflop raise to 900. That is only 3 times the big blind and someone has already limped. IMO 1200 is the better raise here with a preflop limper. It will give his hand more...

Re: How to play the bitch-straight?
Yes you get my thinking. It is hard to get paid off when you hit a flop that 32o likes. Plus I just don't like playing a hand where I am guaranteed to flop bottom pair when I hit the board with a...

Re: How to play the bitch-straight?
Well I think the result demonstrates one of the problems with the hands--that unless the board comes exactly A45 or 332 you can't flop the nuts. In three handed poker it is likely you will lose some...

Re: How to play the bitch-straight?
I personally would not call this hand out of the small blind because of the negative implied odds of playing 23. That being said--I like the check on the flop assuming that you have some aggression...
