best laydown ever?

[offset 0]

In the 2004 world series arieh layed down his nut flush on the river to a full house when his flush card paired the board.

it wasnt the nut flush

Oh, i thought he had a king high flush with the ace on board, but thinking back you're probably right.

what is the best laydown on tv you have seen? personally i remember the 2003 wsop when scotty win layed down AK on a flop of K23 rainbow and the guy in fact did have KK. has anyone seen better?

espn rigged these laydowns, and the one when tony D supposedly layed down trip jacks to hellmuths all in re-raise with 77 on board of QJJ5according to paul philliops anyway, I kinda believe it.

actually i have seen someone in a home game make the best laydown ever. he had pocket jacks, raised preflop. this fish called him, flop was 2 low cards and a jack. he checked and so did the fish. turn was another low card. he checked and so did the fish again. river was another card under a jack that put a possible strait on the board. a strait that would require both hole cards. the guy checks and the fish bets $1. the guy folds his top set and the fish shows a strait. i couldnt believe what had just happend. the guy with the set played it like a moron but made the best laydown ever, to a $1 bet he folds top set in a 25-50 cent game. no flush possibility, just one strait possibility.

No, this episode was on TV not to long ago. I actually had ESPN on at the time and was flicking through channels. At first I thought it was a knew tournament, but I found out it wasn't right after that hand. He had a king high flush, not an ace high. There could of been an ace on the board, but it didn't suit with Arieh's flush. It was still a great lay down. It would of been tough to lay that hand down in pot limit omaha.

I beleive another set up hand in the 2003 WSOP is when Sammy Farha had quad 4s and Phil Ivey calls 80k with a pair of nines i beleive Phil really had K9 of clubs which gave him the nut flush.

i don't remember it being the nut flush, but it was a tough laydown. murphy didn't really make the best play in overbetting the pot though.

I'm pretty sure it wasn't against murphy. I can picture the guy he layed it down too, but can't remember his name.

it was against murphy. the river paired queens and made arieh his king high flush. murphy was first to act and went all in with deuces full. i wonder how many times he's regretted not betting smaller or even checking it since then.

i think it was when Arieh layed down the flush. I could never do that. My tournament would have been over.

I do too. That would qualify as the worst laydown ever. I think about that laydown all the time, because I always think about how the whole poker world knows how to beat up on Phil in a tournament. Play back at him until he plays back at you. He never plays big pots w/o the nuts. I was wondering if this is what Tony was thinking, but still dont think he could make the laydown.

The board was someting like 44xx9 both "x" being smaller then the nine. plus Farhas bet was a huge overbet, which meant either the nuts or nothing

You're calling the other guy a fish? The dude with the J's is the bacteria that lives in a fish rectum.It'd be hard for him to play the hand worse.All the way down to and including the fold.

As for the best laydown I have heard about, it's David Chiu's pre-flop fold to a big raise at the TOC a few years back...He somehow knew the guy had AA and he did :shock:

Agreed. Andy Glazer wrote an entire article about it.....quite a preflop lay down, and the hole cameras were on in another room, so obviously that room erupted when he made the fold....unbelievable.
