jjdylan 0 Posted August 28, 2007 Share Posted August 28, 2007 FWIW - i remember an old article Daniel wrote about making up a similar game using 83o to loosen up some of the games he used to play back when he was a grinder.and while that amateur looks like a douchebag, what he's saying about Phil is 100% spot on. If you're really that great at what you do, you'll never have to tell anyone. Link to post Share on other sites
exec771 0 Posted August 29, 2007 Share Posted August 29, 2007 Florida Antonio is a mega fish. He doe'snt give up on hands and gives away a ton with his body language and betting/calling speeds I would love to get that kind of action in a game.3 hands tell you everything about a player huh.. You know Doyle limp called a re-raise of 6bbs preflop oop in first wsop ep this year with 89..FWIW a couple of people posted on 2+2 saying hes one of the biggest winners live. As far as the hand goes hes in position against a weak tight player in a hand that was 4-bet preflop so he cant put him on a lone K. So its either quads, so something like AA or QQ. He could be able to get him off the latter two..Maybe the turn bet was a bit much but you cant fault him for c-betting on flop.. Link to post Share on other sites
wisky_VI 0 Posted August 29, 2007 Share Posted August 29, 2007 Salorio hasn't seemed to come out ahead on the episodes of Cash Poker that I've watched. I can only imagine most of his opponents in the normal games he's plays are tourney players or rich fish.Also funny seeing how the 300/600 stakes and deep stacks change him, you can tell he's a little more nervous than playing 75/150 etc. Link to post Share on other sites
Craigdog 0 Posted August 29, 2007 Share Posted August 29, 2007 A few thoughts on the first episode..- Phil Laak is such an annoying prick- Todd Brunson is dressed like a homeless hillbilly- The fish got lucky with his kings- Hellmuth showed some big balls- Mattusow needs to build a bridge & get over it!!!!!!- The Voulgaris guy seems like a decent player...errr, thats about it, good episode!!

dapokerbum 0 Posted August 29, 2007 Share Posted August 29, 2007 The one thing that I LOVED about the Matusow vs PH hand was the tremendous amount of respect given to PH for that bet. Then the comment he made was great, something along the lines of Why don't you guys call every 40K bet PH Makes and see how often you win. Great read by MM, but even greater read by PH to know that Matusow could lay his hand down against him...No way he lays it down to anyone else at that table. Link to post Share on other sites
Sculthorpe 0 Posted August 29, 2007 Share Posted August 29, 2007 Great episode. Don't agree that Todd should be able to make that move. Anyone know if that is typically allowed? Link to post Share on other sites
gfdsa146 0 Posted August 29, 2007 Share Posted August 29, 2007 In that casino, yes it was allowed. But no matter where someone does that, whether the casino permits it or not, it should be frowned upon. If someone fakes a call with a forward motion, you should do the same by faking(sw) a forward motion to his face. Link to post Share on other sites

LongLiveYorke 38 Posted August 29, 2007 Share Posted August 29, 2007 - Phil Laak is such an annoying prickNo, Laak his hilarious. He's a genius, and his show is amazing. Check out "I bet you" and you'll agree that the man's brilliant. Link to post Share on other sites
ThreeBet 0 Posted August 29, 2007 Share Posted August 29, 2007 No, Laak his hilarious. He's a genius, and his show is amazing. Check out "I bet you" and you'll agree that the man's brilliant.I agree ... haven't seen that show but with him and Antonio there's no way it couldn't be good, imo. I think he's very very smart and really plays the fool to perfection at the table. Most people are blinded by the hood and the pushups etc, thinking he's just out to get notoriety and that skews their judgement? Very underrated player, imo. Link to post Share on other sites

I also think that if I was playing in a game with the 27 prop going on, I'd slightly tighten my starting hand requirements and take big advantage of it, ala what Laak was doing.

Balloon guy 158 Posted September 3, 2007 Share Posted September 3, 2007 Didn't want to start a new thread and waste valuable interweb space.I was on vacation so just saw this last night.WOW is Phil Helmuth the greatest or what?That was so great that he pulled the trigger on the river.And the guy with Kk vs 72 wasn't getting anymore money, he only had 74K after calling turn 50, how can he guy bluff him off with over $200 in the pot? He got the maximum in my opinion ( which is pretty big deal in my mind )I am so happy with this season. Can't wait for next one. Link to post Share on other sites
