2006 WSOP Main Event...

[Talking Poker]

Her call was bad. Preflop is fine (are you seriously going to throw away TT every time someone raises in front of you???). On the flop, she raised too much (2000 would have been plenty), but raising was correct... It's a way of asking "Do you have TT beat?" The problem is, he answered "Yes" and she didn't listen and fold. He obviously didn't have trips, but his play SCREAMS of AA, KK, or QQ. That should have been an easy fold for her right there. There is pretty much no hand he could have that she could beat here.

Also, when you start wih 10k chips, 600 does not "commit" you.

Williamson then asks Shoichet, "Do you have trips?" After 5 minutes, Shoichet calls the clock on Williamson.

How am I not surprised...

TP,

Hellmuth got knocked out holding AQ A Q! I'm telling you now, muck that shit or it will bite you.

I was SUPPOSED to go broke with AQs tonight, but I didn't. Zy was railing me at the time and said he would have. That's not necessarily saying I played the hand perfectly, but AQ did try to break me.

Sean Sheikhan Eliminated
On a flop of 973 and $675 in the pot, the player in seat 2 bets $700. Sean Sheikhan raises to $2,000 and the player re-raises all-in for $10,000 more. Sheikhan makes the call and shows QQ while his opponent shows 99 for a set. The turn and river come 8K, and Sheikhan is eliminated.

I just checked on PokerWire and Freddy Deeb is down from 1,000,000 chips to only 13,000.....wow, quite a swing, eh RellDeal?

Farha Eliminated With Full House
John Phan raises pre-flop, and he is called by Joe Berry and Sam Farha. The flop comes 964, Phan raises, Berry calls, and Farha re-raises. Phan folds and Berry smooth calls. The turn brings another 6, and once again, Farha bets into Berry who just calls. The river brings a 10, and Farha moves all-in. Berry calls and Farha flips over pocket 9s for a full house. Berry shows pocket 6s, and Farha can't believe his opponent turned quads against his top set. Farha is eliminated.

Ouch! even worse...

Hardest Beat EVER
Jack Mahalingam is all-in for $5,000 and is called an opponent in late position. Mahalingam shows 88 and his opponent has 55. The flop is 655 and his opponent flops quads. The turn is a 9 giving Mahalingam a gut-shot straight flush draw (his only way to win). The river is the 7 giving Mahalingam the straight flush and the hand.

I missread the hand I thought she raised $3,000 preflop to someone elses raise of 600. This is totally different now sorry


I thought she had raised 3k preflop to 600 chip raise which would of put $7200in pot right 3600 from her and 3600 from other guy then with dude betting on flop that would be half her stack there which if you put half your stack in on a safe flop like that you are gonna put the rest in correct?


thats why i said putting that much on TT and not calling that much on TT. I like TT alot its one of favorite hands so yes would of played hand same way but making that call. I think It was pretty easy lay down like you said the dude told her she was beat.
