Re: Did Johnny Chan 4-bet and fold to a 5-bet?

Or more likely it was just the first big number the writers thought up. [/ QUOTE ] No. 100 Big Bets makes you look like a pimp. I'm envious of the picture Barry has at Foxwoods with his Pyramid of Power and I will one day best it by sitting down with him at the 20 game and making his eyes bleed as I begin a'stackin' 40 racks o' white. Nothing says "macho" more then saying "raise" and shoving in a whole rack -- and then giving the dealer a dirty look when he takes too long to give you your $20 change.

Re: Did Johnny Chan 4-bet and fold to a 5-bet?
This reminds me of a hand I played vs. Tommy Angelo once. Why was I played T.A.? I dunno, we were in his hotel room and they asked me to bring up $1,400 in $1 chips. Anyway, I had 4-high on the river. The board was J-5-3-T-K no flush possible. It was head-up and I was first to act. I turned over my hand. 4-2. Tommy looked at my hand, looked at the board, looked at me, looked back at my hand and said:
"What do you do?"

You will be forever banned from the FW's 20 game if you show up with ANY white chips. And MaxPower can attest that I only bought in for 2 racks that day.

Re: Did Johnny Chan 4-bet and fold to a 5-bet?
C'mon, Barry, when I sit at the 20 I always have a handful of whites for tips - but just because it will offend you, I'll limit it to the few even though I was planning on doing the Raise Via A Rack trick (assuming I'm there when you are AND I'm not drinking - a highly unlikely combo).
Alas... I'll just have to best your chip pyramid the old fashioned way (and try not to get banned when I get evidence of it myself as some floor person is bound to go - no cell phones in the poker room, please go to the stairs, blah blah blah). Barron Vangor Toth BarronVangorToth.com
