The dude who cried when his K high flush lost

I interviewed this guy on the next break after that beat...he was a tool who wouldn't shut up about "I played perfect for three days yada yada yada..."

Shut up. Move on. Tool.

Haven't read the whole thread...nor did I see this TV episode yet.
But I don't care. crying about a poker-hand is idiotic.

Anybody who thinks they played 'perfect' for 3 days is an idiot.

He might not have made an huge, dunder-head errors.
but he certainly did NOT play perfectly.

Greenstein said he has never had a single session where he didn't make SEVERAL mistakes.


Whining about how unfair it is and how perfectly he played is pathetic.
Matt posted that this guy whined several months ago to MANY people about some other bad-beat he had taken.
Big deal.


At the WSOP I lost a TON of chips with KK vs. AA.
big yip.
I looked at him and he took all my chips and I kind of gave a little smile and 'what can you do?' type of shrug to him.

This was shortly after my QQ hit it's set against a guy with AA (we got all-in AFTER I hit the set) and he was down to $1k chips in an instant. He didn't cry either.

This guy sounds very Hellmuthian in a way.
He plays so great that he just deserves to win and he's not against telling everybody how great he plays but he just got unlucky...etc etc.


Tool tool tool.


(Matusow crying last year was a total tool also...especially after he was being such a prick trying to bully around Raymer just a little while earlier)

did the kid show his cards? He was agonizing over a call with the 2nd nuts, and this wasn't a feature table.

You are correct--I just went and looked, and we never see his cards exposed. He probably had A4o.

Btw, I think Phillip Seymour Hoffman is lined up to play this guy in the WSOP 2005: The Movie.

this kid is definately a tool he got what was coming to him. remember that hand against Farha he seemed too arrogant for his own good. most likely he bluffed Sammy out of that pot since he went to go brag to his dad immediately afterwards. if he had a hand there is no reason to go over and tell someone you had it.

but yes, a Milwaukees Best commercial is in order here.

THATS IT before someone takes my idea, Im makin an avatar.

anyone help me out with a video clip of it?

I can do the rest.

A Milwaukee's Best can crashing through the ceiling would be the all time best Aviator. It would even beat the Dan Druff chair cover twirl.

Waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!

This dude deserves heckling and public ridicule at every card room he ever shows his face in for the rest of his life. Torture him until he cries and runs out!

He went to IU! I can no longer admit to being an IU alumni (should have listened to my mother and stayed closer to home). Please don't tell me he lived in the Sammy house.

You're an alumni? [img]/images/graemlins/confused.gif[/img]


Heh, a Buckeye getting educationally elitest. That's comedy.

[/ QUOTE ]You too? Didn't know him well at all, but my sister did. Always thought he was kind of a douche though.

You can't help but feel sorry for the situation he was in, but crying is very immature. There's no way he played perfect for three days as we've all agreed, it's impossible. There's almost always a better way to play a hand in a certain situation. In this instance, I really don't know why he took so long to call. I would've beat the guy into the pot.

Generally, if I raise and see a reraise in a spot like that I have to assume I'm against the nuts if I don't have them.

It is a hard fold, but raise/reraise with flush draws out there that came in is a big warning - unless the guy has a habit of forgetting his hole cards - I saw 5 raises/reraises in a limit game once before someone realized their A was the wrong suit -
