Tom Dwan - so sick...

[Talking Poker]

You are the guy who is always posting hands where you fold the second nuts and sets on relatively dry boards, etc. If you think I believe for a second you would call here with TPTK, I am calling BS, sir.

Divide the stakes by 10 or 100 if that makes the numbers make more sense to you. Now cover up Dwan's hole cards and pretend someone posted it on here holding the AQ. Are you telling me that your advice to them would be to go ahead and stack off with it?

Somehow I doubt it.

I thought PAD was a SnG format... did they change to a cash game for one week?

I'd go Hellmuth style and put all my chips in the middle like a spaz instantly.

I do appreciate everyone nut hugging durrr though.

Yea I made posts folding big hands, but in almost all of them, there was little or more likely no reasonable bluffing hands -- in this case there's an obvious one. It was also usually against straightforward opponents, something Dwan is anything but.

The original plan with AQ was certain to check call a river bet. In fact I'll even one up that and say he checked to induce a bluff (and bc he cant afford to be raised yea) What I don't understand is when Dwan bets MORE than he intended him to, why this changes ANYTHING when all his bet does is lessen his range tremendously (to nuts or air)

Like I said it goes back to previous history. Has Dwan overbet in this fashion before? Has he showed down? What has he showed down? Is this capable of being a sick bluff (hint yes) And to be fair is this capable of a super sick value bet (hint yes also). What does he think of me? Do I make big laydowns? Do I call too much? etc etc

But if u planned to c/c and his giant bet only shrinks his range, I have to imagine you cant back down now. If it's nuts/air I call more often than not
