Re: Greenstein on Moneymaker and Pokersuperstars
The AQ vs 99 hand wasn't checked on the flop.
Also, in Chris' book he discusses a hand where he bluffs out that really tight asian guy in what he calls "the most important pot" of the tournament. Wish we could've seen that on ESPN.

Re: Greenstein on Moneymaker and Pokersuperstars
Anyone else find it hilarious that Greenstein would call himself "crazyplayer" when playing online.
Almost as fun as when spotty 18 year old guys call themself "Bigdaddy69".

Why is it so hard for people to understand how lucky you need to be to win sometimes? Farha was down to like one chip early in the tournament and went allin blind a few times, but because those hands werent on TV, you dont hear everyoned talking about what a lucky donkey he was to get to the final 2.

Re: Greenstein on Moneymaker and Pokersuperstars
Did Barry happen to make mention of his alien abduction as a child? And if so, does he blame those martian-man looks solely on that??? Talk about a bad-beat story . . .

Re: Greenstein on Moneymaker and Pokersuperstars
Blinds were 8k/16k, 2k ante. MM raises to 60K UTG+1. Ivey called from the CO. Lester called from the SB. Board is QQ6, MM bets 70K. Ivey calls, Lester folds. Pot at this point is 360K. Turn is a 9, MM bets 200k, Ivey raises all in, MM calls. Pot is 1 million. With those pots odds, and your hand, why would you fold ace queen on a board of QQ69? Name me 1 good reason. Forgot [censored] tells, especially a tell on Phil Ivey. You can pick up nothing on what he might have. If he has 66 or 99 he's just got it. Other way around, you think Ivey would have fold if he had Ace queen in this spot ? Absolutely not. Everyone is calling this 100% of the time.

At least that's what he would tell you.
