Patrik like durrrr is a callin station, they rarely fold to reraises preflop,if they happen to have a hand it is so rare to get them to fold it, only way they save money is calling; dwan would have c/r-ed the turn unless an Ace came, he was playing extremely snug this 2nd week, for his style anyway, i remember when i used to play live, guys would play so wild, but when the chips go in on raise esp. they are HUGE, 9/10 times....even viffer, watch the 48h big game and viffer will show u how to do it, even after being one outed

In the big set over set hand, the jury is still out for me until I hear Dwan's street by street analysis on the director's cut as to why he check-called the QTx flop with KK. Was he tarping? Was he pot-controlling? Deception? We will never know what would have happened if the K hadn't come on the turn.

I watch these on my computer, so whenever the pot goes post-flop Dwan vs Antonious, I auto multi-task. Here comes 5 dead minutes of slack-jaw, non-blinking Dwan staring at Michelangelo's statue of David.

so true and well written

the hand was interesting but after the turn was dealt everybody knew what was happening and the only interesting part was the final pot size.

Viff was playing pretty nitty/not too good overall....was wondering why he checked back the turn with the AQo hand vs Dwan if hes ever going to fold the river.....either bet/fold turn or c turn and call riv!

What about the QQQJJ hand?!? Patrik tanking for ages on the river, he's never folding there so why tank for so long?

He's thinking about folding, calling, or raising.

Please tell me why is Patrik raise/folding JT on J32 when Dwan leads out with A9 OOP 5way???

I thought info raising was bad and -EV play? Or is there something else that I'm not getting?

He's probably thinking that TT-QQ are the range most likely to have done what PA did preflop. If he had led out, and PA made a big raise, he would probably have had to fold.

What are you trying to say? Is it:

- I am not suppose to question PAs play?

- I am too dumb to understand the concept behind his play if someone explains it to me?

- I am a loser at the games so I shouldn't ask question to try and improve, but rather just continue to give my money away?

Seriously, go fk your self if you aren't going to give a constructive answer. And to answer your question I am a winning reg at nl400, douche.

WP sir.

something i hate about this forum is guys who just back bite and bitch at things others say without anything constructive to say.

not my own thoughts but i think ali nejads point about PA's problem was relevant.he said the problem for patrick was if he was behind he was probably crushed and if he was ahead it wasn't by much (or words to that effect)

Exactly, but that doesn't explain why he raised in the first place. He must know Dwan is likely to bet/3bet with a big draw. A raise only makes sense when you put your opponent on a draw and know he's passive enough not to come back OTT. I was surprised by Patrik's play there too.

very good points.

i was only thiking about after the raise.

but maybe then again, if patrick has two pair there all the money's going in and he's 65/35 (ish) to win all the money.might just be part of meta game.

just speculating.

Anyone heard Ali saying that three of the players had a B&M background (Eli, Gabe and Phil laak) and three had online background (Antonius, Dwan and Viffer)? Wtf? Has Viffer ever played online? I think he was a oldschool vegas player.
