First of all, I think Harry put Josh on a steal and/or draw, and didn't want to give Josh the pot or a free card. Top pair, third kicker is definitely vulnerable, but he clearly didn't think Josh had him beat, and he was right. Plus, he had the gutshot draw. I don't think Harry's play was that bad.

Second, I don't understand what Josh wanted to see from Harry (after the push)--what hand did he expect Harry would go all-in with? Two pair? Made straight? Higher flush draw? In any case, wouldn't Josh be calling when he was behind? Or was he expecting the push to be with a worse hand? I don't get it.

Seriously, when Josh decided to call Harry's all-in, what cards would he have been happy to see AND not have thought Harry was an idiot to push?
