he probably shouldn't have taken a cointoss with phillips when he is covered and the third player is on life support. The almost guaranteed jump in prize cash makes the fold profitable.

Tomko wasn't exactly on life support just yet...800k right (didn't see this, going on what is written here)?

have some respect for a pro

[/ QUOTE ]

What makes Paul Philips a "pro"? And I'm not the one that needs to treat people with respect. You need to talk to the man in the mirror about that.

Just to set the record straight. I do indeed advocate calling and seeing a flop. However, I never said check and fold was the strategy to follow after the flop. Since you accuse me of saying this I will not respond to you unless you either find a quote of mine where I state what strategy to follow after the flop or apologize to me for the false accusation you make here.

I'm not positive of the exact amount Tomko had. It may have been less, But even at 800k he is almost a 3 to one dog to either player to finish second.

Is it just me or is Vince just a giant douche bag?

I'd think of a more clever insult if I really cared.

What a snooze fest.

It seems like you have no clue how to play the flop after calling preflop,

[/ QUOTE ]

What? Philips makes a "dumb" comment about playing a "check-fold" strategy after the flop (I never claimed that was how to play after the flop. It's not) and you accuse me of not having a clue how to play after the flop. Take your lips off of PP's hiney and try reading who says what in these posts.

So how do you play after the flop?

Default Re: Bigger Mistake: Phillips or Hansen?

Vince, interesting points you raise. Why does the difference in 2nd to 3rd place money make the decision to call better?

I believe that both Hansen and Philips made big mistakes on this hand. I know I'm right about that but I wonder which made the bigger mistake.

[/ QUOTE ]

[ QUOTE ]
I agree with you David it is a close decision but I think that factoring the difference between 2nd and third sway the decision to a call.

Hypocrite, imbecile, or Sklansky ass-kisser?

It looks like your command of the english language got hte better of you again. Paul didn't criticize your saying he made a mistake, and I highly doubt his ego came into play when replying to such an idiotic statement.

You claimed to KNOW you were correct, but just wanted some sort of coordinate on the grid of your absolute correctness.

The real humor of the post was that you could make such a bold statement as to know you are correct in your assertation, but didn't have the confidence in your diagnosis to know exactly why you were correct and to what degree?

Default Question for Matt Sklansky?

[ QUOTE ]
Is it just me or is Vince just a giant douche bag?


[/ QUOTE ]

Matt,

Are you allowing this kind of stuff on this forum now? I'd like to see this fellows posting priveleges suspended. If you don't suspend him then please ensure he cannot reply to any of my posts. I will do in kind to his.
If neither can be done, I do understand but regrettably will not post on 2 + 2 again. Thank you.
