Agreed. But the question is, what thought process led to this particular poor play?

I know there's another thread about JT's play with that full house on PAD, but I haven't seen a real attempt at an explanation, so I thought I'd give it a shot. Why is an explanation needed?

The problem is, here in the U.S., we have a history in which this kind of making fun has been severely abused. (I believe someone else posted the wikipedia link on blackface, which is very thorough). There is, as a re
