LOL.

Some of the best coverage ever. Deal with it.

Glad to see Lamb kicking some butt.

When you're in an NL tourney in pokerstars the min raise is always less than twice the previous bet.

Its called the big blind... take it out of the first number and voila!!! Minraise!!!

Poker hard to broadcast live unless you are an expert.

An imperfect analogy would be to calling a horse race. Networks have rarely used their regular announcers to do it because it is difficult to pull off and takes a lot of experience. They generally hire people who work at racetracks and have called thousands of races to do it.

On the other hand, it probably would not be that difficult to call a race on tape when you had already seen it and know what is going to happen.

Misunderstanding min-raises? This is what happens when you don't learn limit before no-limit!

Ive ripped on stasko a lot in this thread but after thinking about it I kind of feel bad. He's a man in his thrties from a small town in czech republic who worked in the automotive industry most of his life and is kind of scary looking. He might not be a genius, but he is clearly smart enough to not be fufilled by being a low level mechanic.
He's an underachiever living the dream.

completely guilty as charged, never played a live donkament

edit: or live cash for that matter

From the cutoff seat, Ben Lamb raised to 675,000. Matt Giannetti called out of the big blind and the flop came down {A-Hearts}{9-Hearts}{2-Diamonds}. Giannetti checked and Lamb fired 700,000. Giannetti called and the turn was the {7-Diamonds}.

On fourth street, both players checked to see the {2-Hearts} pair the board on the river. Giannetti checked and Lamb fired a big four million in to the pot of 3.14 million. Giannetti then tanked for several long minutes. Giannetti looked pained as he tanked and tanked. He cut out the chips from his stack to make the call and then tanked even longer. Finally, he stuck the chips in.

Lamb turned over the {3-Clubs}{2-Spades} for trip deuces and Giannetti mucked his hand.

If Gianetti mucked, how do we know he had A9?

Lamb is just laughing variance in the face

hand history for the 32o v A9o hand anyone?

thanks

hole card cameras

The only hands they don't show are those that don't see a flop.

If Lamb's laughing at variance, what the heck did Darvin Moon do to it 2 years ago?

apples and oranges.

Darvin moon made sweet love with variance.

three posts above

I was expecting a much more creative verb/action. I am dissapoint.

Just bustin' balls -- I'm an NVGtard if there ever were one...

Anyone
But
Lamb

They weren't showing mucked hole cards earlier in the day.

Trying again - did anybody see Gianetti's hole cards?

Should be back on real soon right? 6AM where I'm at, shouldn't reg semidrunk for donkaments at 1AM I guess, need something to keep me awake .

He had A9 iirc

Min raising is so 2008.
