As for the bubble -- What a painful beat! That turn card was viscious, increasing Whalroos from three outs to eleven.

14 outs

Great updates, good night.

Joe -- Your experience with Vanessa is far more direct than ours, so it should hold more weight. (And I respect your opinion.)

But it still irks me when players ahead in a hand call for cards. Is it a fair critique? Possibly not. But it's one of those etiquette things that gets under my skin.

I agree and I don't even like players calling loudly for cards when they are behind. I just don't think that Vanessa would do it it a way that some other players would though. She seemed genuinly nice throughout.

I'll tell you the kind of thing that really gets me though and it happened at the same table. Maybe Jen or Snoopy could provide the names? A French guy sat on Eli Marciano's left made a raise to 10,000 in early position and the player in the ten seat, I believe he was from Norway, pulled his cards right in behind his chips. The dealer looked at me (I was in the 1 seat) so I passed, then four more players passed including Phil Helmuth who was on the big blind. The French guy started to move his cards forward and the dealer went to push the pot when Phil realised and pointed out that the Norwegian still had cards. Then the Norwegian tried to get a ruling that Frenchies hand was dead as it had crossed the line!

The point is that some people are good and some are bad. Mr Norway is genuinly bad and I believe that Vanessa in genuinly good.

Of course, far far worse. One is annoying, one is cheating imo

Thanks for keeping me honest, Nemesis! You're right, of course, he had 14 outs on the turn. (I forgot to count his original three outs -- the aces.)

When you see a card like that hit on the turn, your stomach drops and you feel the loss already, even though you're still technically a favorite with just one card to come.

[The Baron]

Great updates - thanks guys!

[Royal Flush]

He is only 1.6% better off on the turn than he was pre flop!

Another enthralling Update, big thanks to Jen, snoops & Dana.

To those reading them, I can tell you that the working conditions for the Updaters at Aviation are the worst we have ever had anywhere, so kudos to the blonde Team.
