You're kidding right? That flop minraise was atrocious on that board. Raise pot, then push turn gets the money in way better and prevent a heart from killing his action.

Is there any chance you can show the new hearts on the card cam to see if the comparison between [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] and [img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img]

Tuchman is playing way too loose. I hope he's not trying to impress the audience by plkaying crappy. He's got to remember who he is playing.

Tuchman is playing big stack play money poker. Sadly the rigged decks were accidentally put on table 10 instead of the LATB table. Word is they are working on getting the decks switched without anyone seeing. Expect someone to ask for a setup soon.

Bart can you give me the dates in archive when you and/or Shirley played?

Here's what I would guess is going on:

Dave has always been somewhat dismissive (at least implicitly) of players who read and take seriously poker books. Nothing would give him more pleasure therefore than to beat a table full of 2+2'ers, who are the example par excellence of "book players".

Therefore I think he is trying to amass chips by getting lucky playing trash. If he wins big, he gets to claim superiority over "book players", that he schooled a bunch of weak tight 2+2'ers. If he loses, he can just claim he was screwing around to be entertaining and wasn't taking it seriously. Either way, he can still go on thinking that poker books are a waste of time, and that those who read them are inferior.

Really what he is doing, is proving the opposite. Way to go, Tuck.

Doesn't Tuchman claim his regular game is 80/160? The buy-in here is barely over 3BB to that game so if that is indeed true I think it's possible he's just donking it up with the 2+2ers for fun.

I'm done watching Tuchman take continuous stabs at multi-way pots with garbage. I'm more entertained by Poker-Babes.com and the awesome gallery of Shirley and her gorgeous cleavage that seems to sneak into every pose. I don't think I would ever attempt to steal a pot from her if I saw that sitting across the table from me.
