Default worst move by a poker celeb i saw at wcoop last night...

After several hours of play, with blinds at 200-400, 25 ante, celeb has about 8100 chips in BB.

Tight player in cutoff (about 15000) raises 5X BB to 2000.

all fold to celeb. celeb reraises allin, so original raiser has to call about 6000 more for a 11000 pot. He calls and shows AQs.

Celeb reveals.... 10 4.

Celeb goes out, and i scratch my head and wonder why they would risk everything they worked for up to that point and lay it on the line with 10 4 against a tight players raise which had strength written all over it.

Obviously this individual was trying to force the cutoff to laydown his hand, but it just appeared to be a very bad spot to do that.

I wouldnt say anything normally but i played a tourney several weeks ago at the same table with this person and lets just say the plays there were very suspect as well. I don't understand how this person gets solicited for TV appearances and invites for special tv tournaments.
