Before I begin I will say I didnt know this was a repeat or anything and most of you have already seen this before... but I havent..soo..

I was watching High Stakes Poker last night where Gus Hanson (55) and Daniel N. (66) were both dealt pairs and both hit trips on the flop. I got real excited because I didnt know what was going to happen next, I just knew in my mind that someone was going to lose alot of money! The turn came giving Gus quads but Daniel now had sixes full of fives! Gus now checks the hand which then Daniel bet out...and ofcourse he is called..the river was an 8.

Gus knew he had the nuts..he knew it..nothing could beat him so he went all in.. where as Daniel had a FH and was thinking that maybe Gus caught a straight..but Gus acted first and went all in..Daniel ran everything in his mind..did he have trip 8's trip 9's which would have naturally been a better FH than his..and ofcourse he thought quad 5's...I was completely mesmorized by all of this..listening to Daniel's logic..andthe pot was going to be 600K ..out of his OWN pocket..for just this ONE hand!!! He called!!! Imagine if you were really in a hand like that and lost...

Ok..Did Daniel N. play this right..out of his own pocket 300K..You could see he was really torn whter or not to call that bet..when in a situation like that where your struggling like this..is it better to just fold it? He already had alot of money in the pot..but to add more to it?? What is everyone's thoughts on this?
