I think it speaks to the fact that while the Daily Show is always accused of having a liberal bias, he's mostly just lampooning hypocrisy on both sides. He actually basically compliments Palin at the end with the last clip.
that word...I do not think it means what you think it means.

I'd make it $18 to give him the illusion of some fold equity.

I'd raise to about $120
I was tying to make a smallish bet to give him the impression that he had some fold equity but yeah ur probably right just play it straight up and bet the $120

CO's line here is so strong that I think this is a fold. Did CO just finish sitting out and post? How does he check the action PF?

Uhh...no. He lampoons hypocrisy on 95% one side. Now, thats probably more a function of which party is in power right now, but I don't think its a stretch by any means to say that the show has a large liberal bias.
that word...I do not think it means what you think it means.
Heh, thats what I was thinking too. But I guess when you're a massively liberal biased show, just playing the clip and not completely ripping Palin to shreds is considered a compliment? :club: I love the Jon Stewart show, but to suggest he isn't liberally biased is very LOL imo. (but again, I think thats more a function of the republican white house than him being a liberal.)Mark

I would've made it 21.39 to go, check it all the way down, then use the timebank and bet .01

Well first Stewart rips Rove and all the other talking head that made themselves look like complete asses by saying one thing about a Dem and then saying the complete opposite about their candidate.Then he shows a clip of Palin where she basically agrees with him. She's portrayed in a very good light. I'd say you could call that complimentary.Though you're right. Saying that Stewart isn't liberally biased is complete denial.

sometimes guys that post like that play aces and kings, or even other overpairs for that matter, so weird that i can see you being ahead of a big pair here sometimes and even ahead of a worse six sometimes because of his flop check. His line is super strong BUT if he is posting and checking like that he may not be able to properly evaluate the strength of his hand.A strong arguement can be made for folding and you probably are right, but I'm inclined to get it in on the flop or call the flop and shove his bet on the turn.
