Re: total unfluffableness
[ QUOTE ]
I recall a similar post/hand discussion along these same lines sometime ago. Someone called a bet when they knew they were beat (by a full house, I think). All the odds etc were spilled out and only a few people (including Mr. Angelo) said a fold was the correct play. Tommy ended up explaining it all by tossing rocks into the ocean, I believe. But perhaps my memory is a bit off. I entered in to simply state that there are times when you can be 100% certain and that too may ‘crying calls’ are made by players. IMO.

I think the subject of "Folding" deserves a lot more attention and in my opinion is one of the least focussed and developed areas in the game of poker. As SKP said, if any other poster had folded on that river, we would have mauled over him. But because it's Tommy who does, then it seems validated. So obviously this validation has merit and somehow can be developed into literature .... hopefully [img]/images/graemlins/smirk.gif[/img]
