Grand Prix De Paris: Day 1A - Interactive

[snoopy1239]

For those who don't think Marc 'MrCool' Goodwin has game, then check out this hand.

Z Illia (pictured) makes it 525 pre-flop, Marc raises to 2,100 and Illia calls.

6-7-J rainbow Flop.

Illia bets out 4k, Marc makes it 19.1k and Illia folds.

Marc shows A-Q, leaving Illia with a face like a bulldog chewing on a wasp with a nettle for dessert.

MrCool now has around 52k and looks to be at the very least, one of your top three chip leaders.

Tony Cascarino is down to 4.7k.

Flop =

Tony checked, Jean bet 2k, Tony made it 7k, Jean pushed for another 5k

Jean Noel Thorel =

Tony Cascarino =

Turn =

River =

I'm no expert, but I'm personally not too keen on the way Tony played this one, because once he raises to 7k, it's going to cost Tony that extra 5k more if Jean wants to play, and I would be wanting to put that much in on a draw. Perhaps a small check-raise or maybe betting out would have been better, or even smooth calling the Flop.

What's the best play here?...

Don't think he did too much wrong. can u call his check raise? i can't.

You're not French enough...

I'd prefer a weak lead 3-bet all-in.

Jeff Lisandro -- 27,325

Actually thinking about it, check/calling against a guy who can't fold there is probably (FAO Ironside proberly) better.

Either way, it's just another example of how the French attack some of these flops.

Getting 14k in with bottom pair, no draws.

Pretty impressive huh?

[b4matt]

Scary- i suffered at their hands last year.... sigh

I suppose there's no point in playing the big draws fast if they're not folding anway.

Bizarrely, though I think Tony was probably favourite when the chips went in, although I doubt he knew that.

16 outs is it?

Back in the hotel wondering if my nerves can take these crazy mo fo's 2moro with 10k at stake!!!

Guillaume Jean Charles is OUT. Didn't catch the hand, but I can tell you that he was the spitting image of David Williams though. That guys seems to look like a LOT of people.
