Beth Shak is posing as a poker pro again - Page 15 - Poker News

Hellmuth bragging about how he was all-in within "a quarter of a second" with AA (0:56) and doing so while his opponent has to decide whether to call or not has to be the dumbest thing I´ve ver seen on a Poker table.

You are wrong here Hellmuth is allin for only 162,000 chips and Richey's open raise was to 80k, so Richey is getting the correct price to call on the main pot but not on the sidepot with Shak, so Hellmuth wants him to fold even though he has aces.

Whether you want to give Hellmuth credit for being a genius for looking super strong on purpose or not doesnt matter. Richey is getting about 6/1 to call on the main pot and Hellmuth wants him to fold both his range as a whole and actual hand.

Yes in general I would suggest to be stoic in big pots, and balance tanking ranges. But you were suggesting that Hellmuth wanted a call and he did not.

All I was suggesting is that bragging about insta-shoving with Aces is the dumbest thing I´ve ever seen. I don´t even care whether he wanted a call or not.
