Re: RAYMER OUT?!
I agree with the stop-n-go if Raymer can get a pre-flop raise in there, but essentially his opponent gets to see the flop for free ($100,000 is nothing). The problem here is that Raymer did not have enough left after a pre-flop raise to scare any hand from calling post-flop. Unless I think my hand has a decent chance to win hot-n-cold, I fold here. If Raymer felt A-9 has 45%+ chance of winning, he should have moved all in pre-flop. $315K could have scared off his opponent, so fold equity is there. Doubling up is not critical at this moment; Raymer needed to stay afloat until he could either (a) move up in the standings, or (b) get the opportunity to double/triple up with a far better hand.
I would not say he tilted, but this does not appear to be one of his best plays either...

Mike Matusow - $7,000,000 2. Andrew Black - $5,500,000 3. Steve Dannenmann - $6,000,000 When Matusow's name is announced, there are a smattering of boos, but they seem almost lighthearted. It's as if Matusow is the player that the crowd loves to hate. WIN IT MOUTH!!!!

Re: The Mouth at 7 Million!
From Mike Paulle's blog:
Thursday, 14th of July 2005 05:29 PM New level, 5k antes, 25k/50k blinds. John McGrane doubles through Minh Ly by pushing all-in after Minh Ly's raise of 120K. Ly calls with J 6 while McGrane had A 4. The board showed K J 7 3 A During the break, Shawn Sheikhan explained what happened with his penalty. He said he got it for slamming the table, not for talking about a hand. "I get penalized because I'm me. They don't like me." Shawn talked about Matusow showing his cards yesterday, with action behind him, that Shawn said busted Freddy Bonyadi. "Freddy is furious with Mike," Shawn added. -------------------------- The children don't seem to be playing well together [img]/images/graemlins/blush.gif[/img]
