the hand ends up the same way no matter what. even if he got it all in on the flop, losing that hand pretty much prevents a good night's sleep for anyone, especially mike matusow.

One day I hope I can be as good as Paul Snead. Calling reraises with A9. At least he had position.

GG Main Event.

You are basically telling me you feel the same way if you lose a hand getting it in bad as opposed to getting it in good, thats a new one

Lol you're funny, he'd be feeling better had he got it all in with his opponent on a maximum 3 outer and then have him hit it. He'd be feeling super. It's a brutal cooler, but Matusow and this guy are going to war with marginal hands in the first place, AJos vs A9suited? 660,000 reraise by Mike and the guys callin? Why? Callin a 660,000 reraise with A9? Wait, it was suited. I forgot.

Paul Snead is a lucksack pervert that can't release A9 pre. What a joke. I hate the fact that one of these guys is going to win the ME. Oh well. GG Mikey.

SCREW LIFE god i am so tired of sweating these MEs and the players i want to FT just get luckboxed out over and over and over and over. every year.

and on top of that, ran like a mixture of garbage and diapers and burning tires today and i want to absolutely club some baby seals right now.

going to bed, can't wait to wake up to see that Tiff Michelle lost with flopped quads to running straight flush by Brandon Cantu.

GG SUNDAY

I disagree - I think the delay helps more than it hurts. It gives ESPN 4 months to figure out how to make the public care about 9 guys (or 8 guys and a girl, take your pick) they've never heard of.

Paul is a notorious donk amongst the pros who regularly play the circuit.

i am absolutely telling you that i'd feel the same way if bust out of the Main Event on a cooler if i got the money in good as opposed to getting it in badly - a cooler is a cooler is a cooler is a cooler.

They are playing the final table in November? How ******ed. The only reason I opened this thread was to find a link to stream the final table that I thought would be on in 24 hours. Sigh.

Well calling off 20% of your stack preflop with A9 not having a clue where your hand stands is to be honest a fantastic play. I mean you know if your opponent has A10 upwards you're gonna hit your 9, and if he has JJ-QQ-KK you're gonna hit your ace. In my opinion this guy is a genius.
