I find it amusing that people think that because somebody happened to get all their money in as a small favorite that it was automatically a good play.

Indeed it would be. Now no one has claimed that. People have only questioned someone coming to the conclusion that it was "weak" since the only information we have is that the one making the supposed "weak" play was a slight favourite when the money went in.

I thought that was what the board was for. Am I wrong?

I would hope that this board is NOT for offering opinions that you admit are baseless.

You: OMG THAT'S DUMB

Us: YOU DON'T KNOW ENOUGH TO SAY THAT'S DUMB

You: I KNOW THAT, BUT I STILL THINK IT'S DUMB

Moreover, if you want to continue to offer opinions that ignore reality- you shouldn't get your drawers all bunched up when somebody points that out.

No, we have information that the 66 went all-in after a large reraise by the AK. That's usually a bad idea, although I too would want more info about the stack sizes and precise action before making a final conclusion. But based on all the info presented so far, it seems more likely to have been a bad play than a good one.

ok, lets not jump to wrong conclusions. My opinion was not baseless. We do indeed know that he was re-raised 70K (12 BB) holding 66. We also know aprox how many total chips they both had at that point.

Also, that was not even the primary intent of my post at all. the first reason I posted was informative (perhaps other people dont know what happened at PSCA). Second, it appeared to me to be an amateur call. Maybe I shouldnt have said "weak". In my mind that is symantics. I would be curious to know what Evelyn Ng or her coach (Negraneau) would have to say about the call. maybe you would respect their opinion.

How do you know? We don't know anything about the range of hands Evelyn Ng raised with, how likely she was to fold to a re-raise, pot size, stack size or what hands she would be likely to call an all-in with.

You don't have even close to the information needed to make a "likely" guess here.

if the intent of his post was to have a dialog about those issues that would have been cool since that is what a DISCUSSION board is all about. Instead he decided to call me names because he thinks I dont understand that a pp is 52% fav. Which isnt relevant to my post at all. We have the gift of hindsight and the A did in fact fall. IMO that is a bad beat.

I am way tired of people attacking others on this board. I see it all the time. What exactly is the point anyway?

When exectly were you called a name?

I'll throw in; yer a moron.
