Default Re: WSOP last night and Sam Farha

[ QUOTE ]

I think there is a problem with this statement. If the reason for Farha's call is implied odds if he hits his set, then implicit in the rationale for calling is that the guy will lose his whole stack with AA. You can't have it both ways, though---Farha couldn't call hoping to bet him off the bigger pair, if the very reason the call with 33 is marginally profitable is because the guy will give you his whole 10G stack.

This is backward. If the guy won't give you his stack with AA when you hit the set, then he can fold when you don't hit the set, meaning he folds the best hand.
