Bart : I like my aces in unraised pot. It's less likely aces are out there, so it's more likely I hit my set. Therefore, I don't raise!

(all joking aside for a weak tight nit you're a decent guy :P)

My god, he starts with a premise and draws the wrong conclusion based on it.

Last week he was talking about how he doesn't like to raise aces in the Big Blind.

I respectfully disagree. People who play like that have no clue that what they're doing is insane. Even if the announcers do make fun of people like seat 5, people who subscribe to this newsletter would retort "but he won the pot! 34o is g00000t!!!"

Most people who play this way will continue to do so regardless of what any internet announcers say. I promise. When moron in seat 5 is pulling down pot after pot with insane draws, it only helps re-enforce their mindset.

There will always be "producers," They will always play this way. The sky is not falling. Seat 5 deserves to be derided by people who know what they're doing, and praised by people who don't.

In defense of Bart, he did not say this. We're just making fun of him for being weak-tight

Yes raising with A4s in the BB is not smart unless you are clairvoyant and you know the flop will come three to your suit.

And I will stop watching this the instant the commentators intentionally dumb themselves down to the level of the players for some false pretense of not teaching the fish, like all the fish in the world will suddenly learn the game by watching this mess. Who cares what the announcers say when the table fish has doubled his stack since we started watching?

Because people, in general, are ignorant NOT stupid. If 2 pros are saying this is the wrong thing to do, people will listen.

Seat 2 calls cold wth 3c4c then calls the 3-bet. Well, even my favorite player makes a mistake every once in a while

Sorry Bart. But I did hear you tell Greg Raymer that you don't like to raise with Aces out of the BB.
