[ QUOTE ]
A player makes a preflop raise, and Michael "The Grinder" Mizrachi calls. The flop comes 9-3-2. Mizrachi bets out, and his opponent comes over the top all in. Mizrachi quickly calls. "Overpair no good," Mizrachi says before his opponent has the chance to flip over pocket aces. And indeed bullets are no good, as Mizrachi shows 3d-2d for bottom two pair. The turn and river are bricks, and Michael "The Grinder" Mizrachi sends a player home early.

Somehow I think that if you switch these two hands we'd hear about how bad these donkey amateurs are.

[/ QUOTE ]

I dunno. That description of the hand is way too vague to really make any assertions about the play.

[/ QUOTE ]

Oh I agree completely. I'm not saying Mizrachi played it badly. Just saying that the lack of that information would not have inhibited many from launching into the usual tirades. I guess the pro gets the benefit of any doubt, though I've seen a few pros make a few plays that leaves me of the view that the quality of play even among the pros varies pretty widely.

Default Annie in a bad mood

From Gutshot :

Preflop action unknown
732 [img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] UTG bets 300, Duke raises to 1300, UTG calls
Turn is 4 [img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] UTG bets 1000, Duke calls
River is 8 [img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] UTG riffles his chips and restacks them. Annie asks if he checked and then calls for a ruling, insisting it was a check. The dealer, other players and the rail missed it but a check was enforced. Duke checks, UTG turns over A [img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] J [img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img]
