does anyone here like raymer?

Thanks for posting that. So I didn't have to.

The "young breed" of poker players may talk shit and try to wage a verbal war, but that's just stupid. Playing 1/2 on the internet, bullshit away, but not in the most prestigous tourney in the world.

Raymer did what I would've done, sat quietly and waited for a chance to bust him out.

Which he did. Actions and results speak louder than words.

Matusow stinks, sorry.

He made the call when he was ahead in the hand, but TP said it best. "He put in his chips as a slight favorite," which is something I've been avoiding doing lately. In fact, I hate going all-in and I think a lot of people make the mistake of doing that when they have chips. A big bet will suffice in these situations, not an all-in.
