Gabe Kaplan--Mr. Kotter
Scotty Nguyen John Juanda Eli Elezra Minneapolis Jim Meehan Lee Watkinson Scotty has more than double the guy in 2nd, Eli Elezra, an awesome player, I sat next to him on cash day of the WSOP and he and Fossilman got involved in some pretty big pots at that table. |

First hand of the show, it's folded to Scotty in the SB. Blinds 10k/20k/2k. He raises Juanda's BB to 50K w/ A9, Juanda thinks a little and moves in for about 500k more w/ AJ, Scotty instacalls and doesn't catch.
Next hand Gabe Kaplan raises w/ KTs, Jim Meehan moves in w/ 99 and Kaplan takes a while and folds. |

I was surprised by Scotty's instacall there. Did he really think John Juanda was making a move on him that early? I think it was more of a psychological tactic, baby. [img]/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img]

I think if I had the chips Scotty did, I'd quickly call as well, both for "psychological reasons" and because I think I'd be ahead or 50/50 enough of the time to make it +EV. |

I was a little surprised by how quickly Scotty called that. I think that was his plan when he raised- did John deduce that?
I like Mr Kotter's fold there. Wow- tough beat on that one, Jim, with all of those dead cards. Nice move, you didn't deserve that. I disagree with Mike about stop and go on the flop, though he probably would have taken the pot. Anyone else? |

I like the fold to John's big flop bet with the gutshot and two overcards out there.

Unless he's putting John on a move, I'd wait for a better spot than a gutshot.

The new format is pretty cool. Percentages take ties into account, it has shown what 5 cards each player plays along with their hand ranking.
Although they did screw up percentages on the Kaplan-Meehan hand. Meehan with 99 had a 44% chance of winning vs. Kaplan's KT having a 56% chance. Wow, it also looks like they are taking folded cards into account when calculating percentages. |
