I guess the Unabomber didn't read Caro's Book of Tells.
Remember, weak means strong. hehe =) |

Re: WPT Final 6
Am I right in assuming that Gigabet is playing for 1st and 1st only?

This was a resteal. He probably had a read that Antonius didn't have a strong hand. If Antonius folds, he picks up a 400K pot and maybe K3o won't be in too bad shape if heis called. Notice Antonius made a small raise to 2.5xBB. The Unabomber undoubtably interpreted that as a weak attempt to steal the blinds. [/ QUOTE ] |

I have decided that I am going to make a smart ass remark to as many posts in this thread as possible.

Joanne 'J.J.' Liu raised to 250k from the button, Doyle Brunson re-raised to 1.0m, and Liu pushed in. Doyle folded and Liu took the pot increasing her stack.

[/ QUOTE ] Brunson was geting better than 2-1 to call. Interesting to see what junk he was restealing with, probably worse than Laak's K3o. I guess this is Brunson's survival strategy. |

Re: WPT Final 6
Darrell "Gigabet" Dicken Doubles Through Rehne Pedersen
Log: <b>Hand #51</b> - Darrell Dicken has the button in seat 1, Dicken moves all in for $1,040,000, and Pedersen calls from the big blind with Ah-Qd. Dicken shows Jh-10s, and he'll need to improve to stay alive. The flop comes 10h-4h-2h, and Dicken makes a pair of tens against Pedersen's ace-high flush draw. The turn card is the Kd, and now Pedersen can win the hand with a jack (for a straight), a queen, an ace, or any heart. But the river card is the 6c, and Darrell Dicken doubles up to over $2 million in chips. After the hand, Pedersen is down to about $1,000,000 in chips. ___ I understand Gigabet's move, since really, Pederson will only call with a Premium hand. But man, he almost got killed on this one. Hopefully, this will induce more calls when Gigabet has a premium holding. |
