Official World Series of Poker ME Day 8 Thread (No spoilers for the 30 min lag crew) - Page 51 - Poker News

I honestly don't think there's any difference in Gianetti's mind on the river between A9, K9, AK, AQ, etc. Lamb was pretty polarized there. I think he's definitely capable of overbet bombing a river with air

That said, it's obviously still really close. I'll just be results oriented and say fold :-P.

Disagree with the bolded

That was the definition of polarized. I think the fact that the board paired actually helped benba inthat it make the board scarier which may have tipped the call - see what i mean?

It's still a huge production error and shows that it's possible for the information to influence the action.

If the crew can put up the players' hole cards by accident on the board, who is to say other "leaks" and problems can't happen?

Look, I'm a television producer, and there's no way this would have compelling mass appeal without showing the hole cards at the end of the hand.

But there is still the possibility for corruption, and I think it needs to be discussed/addressed.

I think he snapcalls half pot with aces up. The overbet looks like a big hand, but could also be a bluff.

Seems like he played aces up to slow. Guess going for the checkraise on the turn, but two flush draws out there. Maybe results oriented.

actually the more I think about that hand, the more I like a fold. However, it's possible I could be suffering from a hindsight results oriented bias (and I probably am).

There isn`t even a difference between hands like A9 or 66, I doubt that Lamb will checkback Ax on the Turn and bomb that river with it then like that.

couple thoughts here....I think it is fairly clear Lamb is the best player remaining but even his fan boys would probably admit at this point he has a bit of a golden horseshoe up his ass.

Also, how does Lon know so little about poker? He's only been seemingly doing coverage with pros for a decade now.

I really think the double made river fcked his head up.
