Shocker that people aren't playing completely optimal strategy on a live final table
THey had months to prepare
Didn't watch all of it but I think Esfandiari's commentary was excellent
He suggested at one stage that when you have jacks it's the best scenario when everybody folds, he picked up on none if the terrible passiveness or suggested that they should be leveraging stacks and he said on a board that you needed a straight to vbet when it was v clear that 2 pairs were vbets.
Also the constant arselickong of jc tran who was supposedly widely recognised the best player at the table. Widely recognised by who exactly? He folded qjo in sb with 12bbs and esfandiari didn't say a word maybe he is his friend. Also qts was limp folded bvb with around 10nbs
Everyones an expert obviously even in a pressure cooker environment.
One or two errors ofc I understand! In a 30 pound fo I'd make mistakes too but asides benefield and lahovort everybody see,ed to make really really big errors.
Must be the worst final table in history. They just folded until they could cooler eachother. Ironic that duhamel is McLaughlins coach and he folded to a 4.4x 3bet in position with a9 when duhamel is a station it seems.
Btw has anybody seen the Dennis Phillips ak hand?
? What?!?!?!
