Enecoman has managed to turn this thread into a huge pissing match.

Where's that arguing on the internet is like running the special olympics picture when you need it.

Default Umm, well, okay

Money in pre-flop. 66 held up vs. AK. The hand description tells me that AK needed the chips, 66 did not. Big deal. Having played a number of cash sessions with Ev, I can tell you she is very weak-tight, and I would call her all-inn for 50% of my chips with 66 withough knowing anything more.

Why would you call all-in with 66 against a weak tight player? Wouldn't a weak player be more likely to hold a big hand when they push all of their chips in?

Both had big stacks but she needed it more for sure. If what you said about her is true than that would have a huge impact on the decision.

I apologize if I offended anyone. That was not my intent.

I read the action on the blog. Ev raise, 66 re-raise, Ev all-in. If I have her covered by 2x, I call in a heartbeat. She is pot-committed and has to try to muscle me out. If I lose, I am still able to come back. If stacks are different, I don't call her initial raise.

"Debora raised preflop to $22K (blinds were 3000/6000). Ng made it $72K to go. Debora pushed all in."

According to the orginal poster you are getting the action wrong. I think this is pretty important.

The problem is the title of the thread. I read that and think that she got all her money in after the flop, and the person who busted her out had to get two cards running to beat her.

That was not the case at all. My first reaction was irritation as well. Please learn how to describe a poker hand in a way that resembles the actual action. Your post was like reading the NY Times (and no, that's not a compliment). Whether you meant to be misleading or not is irrelevant.
