a Legends of Poker hand (Brunson vs. Buss)

[billyjex]

all I can say is... WTF?

With the board showing Js-9s-6d-4d, Doyle Brunson checks to Jerry Buss who bets out $2,000 in chips. Doyle calls. The river is the Js, and Doyle checks again. Buss checks behind him, and shows 9-9 for a full house. Doyle shows pocket kings, and then mucks.

I think cardplayer got it wrong, because I cannot fathom checking the river..

Ive seen Jerry Buss check at these spots before, so cardplayer probably got that rigth. He likes to limp in and check with monsters in order to set up traps.

Not on the river, though, right?

Yep, also on the river. He is a tigth player, so most of the time when he bets on the river, he will not get paid of anyway.
Jerry Buss is the owner of LA lakers and he likes to play with the best. He is considered a good amateur,but far from a hard core pro, so dont be surprised to see some mistakes from him.

[billyjex]

he checked the river to go to showdown, with the 3rd nuts. it's just silly.

[ClaytonN]

checking behind is much different than checking out to trap

[mts]

hasn't he done this before?

[lastsamurai]

I think he wanted to make sure KOBE isnt getting rehab in colorado....DOH

I personally have never seen someone check after the second Jack of spades fell on the river, but that's just me...

if you ever get out of the house and play live with Doyle, you'll see a LOT of Jack of spades. i mean, a lot. i had the good fortune to play in a tournament with him two years ago and i saw him do what appeared to be sign language but was actually codes to Chip Reese to magically transplant ANOTHER JACK OF SPADES IN THE DECK LOLOLOLOL

how do you do it Doyle?!
