I think his reaction is pathetic, I made a massive bet so you should fold - don't know why she can't say I put you on 8 high or some blahblah about yr always at it so i just felt like spite calling even though there's a good likelihood i'm behind. Or just say, I don't know what I'm doing, smile sweetly and rake it in.

This kind of stuff is why poker is so dull, can't actually believe I spent a deece portion of my life on this kind of shenanigans. Think I just liked wine and talking bollox to people who couldn't up and leave.

One thing for sure. Adelstein’s face when he sees her hand will feature in a lot of gifs and memes.

The idea that she was somehow cheating seems a massive stretch to me. 2plus2 is all over it though so I’m sure the truth will out

I remember reading about Stu Ungar calling Matloubi’s river shove in a $50k HU game with ten high.

I remember sitting next to I KNOW IT deep in a Walsall J10 event and watching him snap-call a turn shove with K high, no hand no draw. I looked on with my jaw on the felt as he slapped his hand down with such confidence. Sent that guy to the rail talking to himself.

I even remember the late, great MANTIS01 fist-pump slam-dunk calling a river shove in the latter stages of a Vegas event with A high. I was so in tune with the poker universe I felt the magical vibrations of a higher energy..(admittedly on that occasion my opponent tabled quad 7’s but whatever)

Adelstein may say ‘poker’ is an extremely complicated and nuanced game’ but I reckon it’s nothing compared to the workings of an average human brain. Don’t think I can remember a poker comp where some action or another hasn’t boggled my brain. How? WTF? Pffft!

Never seen somebody take their money back before though. Interestingly the thousands of examples I’ve seen could never be due to a hidden vibrating device or knowing the river cards in advance when running it twice. So what was the logical explanation back then? Really, the fascinating enigma of poker is how classic wizards cannot fathom the off-topic actions of inexplicable artists. It’s simply illogical captain.

Here they must have given the fish with no poker understanding a vibrating device. Plus offering my money back would be a big admission of guilt so hey presto she offered it back, clearly admitting her guilt. These brainiac suggestions make perfect logical sense to my Dr Spock mind. It’s not that I’m a massive cry baby and my oppo thought fuck it call, fuck it have your dollar back.

Of all the bad takes, I have no interest at all in what this whiny bitch has to say.  He had a seat in a great game, and blew it, chin up sunshine.

Just watch  a hand earlier with Garrett v Andy
Ak Garrett re raises an open
Andy 4-5 bets 55
Garrett flats
Flop q-8-4
Check check to river
There’s slow play between 2 of hsp s biggest players if ever I’ve seen it

He 4 bets with 45o?  Feels like he should bet on an A high or K high flop, but check behind on Q84.  Don't know turn and river, but it looks plausible given the pre flop action and the flop.  Why would AK bet when he thinks opponent has a pair?  why would 45 bet when he only gets called by better. 

Think 45 can bet turn, but definitely isn't clear.   And I am no fan of Garret, who seems worse by the hour.  Can't see any amateur wanting to play with him in future.  I wouldn't, I can't stand sore losers at the best of times, and he has gone way beyond a bit of grumbling after the hand.
