Freddec 0 Posted May 17, 2007 Share Posted May 17, 2007 i'm a little perplexed at Tehan calling with the 89o.........was he not confident he could grind down Burt and thought he had to gamble to win? I know these shows are chopped up and you don't see close to all of it so maybe he was just ready to end it right there and get out of the joint......i would have gotten my money in a little better than that i think..........but hey, he won the pot........so who cares Link to post Share on other sites

He needed 39% to make the call correct mathematically and he was only 36%. That said, I still think it's a pretty terrible call. Probably ranks up there with the guy that beat Kenna James for a WPT title with JTo ("I'm tired...I want to go to bed" or something along those lines).Just for the sake of curiosity, I ran 98o against Burt's likely range...he's definitely a dog and still slightly -EV.equity win tie pots won pots tied Hand 0: 34.492% 34.09% 00.41% 2844982 34252.50 { 98o }Hand 1: 65.508% 65.12% 00.41% 5434134 34254.50 { 22+, A8s+, KQs, ATo+, KQo } Link to post Share on other sites
Scanner313 0 Posted May 17, 2007 Share Posted May 17, 2007 Tehan definitely made the most of his cards and I thought he played well, but that last hand was totally ridiculous! Why in the world would you risk $400,000 in that situation? He's got $5mil to Burt's $3mil and he knew he was a dog going in. I don't get it.And yes, that Burt guy was extremely annoying. I couldn't have disagreed more with Sexton's comment of "He's fun to watch". There was nothing fun about the guy. Link to post Share on other sites
akoff 0 Posted May 17, 2007 Share Posted May 17, 2007 Burt needs to be b!tch slapped...he acted like a 15 year old kid who hasn't developed enough social skills to understand how stupid he looks. Link to post Share on other sites
13CARDS 0 Posted May 17, 2007 Share Posted May 17, 2007 I first met Joe a year ago, playing $2/$5 NL @ the Palms. I felted him in that cash game before I realized who he was. The next day, I played vs his sig-other in Event #1 WSOP 2006. Then, Joe came to Niagara Falls for the NAPC last October. A very nice guy and great player.[/brag] Link to post Share on other sites
gfdsa146 0 Posted May 17, 2007 Share Posted May 17, 2007 I know you guys don't like Burt Boutin, but who else will give you that hilarious grunt, that "mmmwahhhhh...." in that A-2 hand? I think that was the highlight of the event. Good to see that Brad Booth can crush something else aside from the side games, i've never seen him at an FT before. Link to post Share on other sites
CobaltBlue 662 Posted May 17, 2007 Share Posted May 17, 2007 Oh, right...I forgot to mention that Booth played stellarly. He tried to make a couple of moves that didn't work out early, but his astounding reading ability showed later against Tehan. Link to post Share on other sites

DCJ001 0 Posted May 18, 2007 Share Posted May 18, 2007 Oh, right...I forgot to mention that Booth played stellarly. He tried to make a couple of moves that didn't work out early, but his astounding reading ability showed later against Tehan.For example, the hand that Booth held 22, the other player flopped two pair and bet a small amount on the flop, Booth raised, the other player reraised, and Booth had to fold. And then the rabbit cam showed that a deuce would have been dealt on the turn, giving Booth the better hand. Booth missed an opportunity to take all of the other player's chips.

He watches enough poker but not that much and he said "Is that the quack quack guy?"Burt Boutin = Fackin Weirdo. I don't know many times I said "What a f'in weirdo", but it had to be in the double digits."RWHAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHH ::::FIST PUMP:::.......:soft voice: did he call?:::::: Link to post Share on other sites
