    I was surprised he didn't call too,set mining with deep stacks and all that.
    I thought there was value in pealing a flop there but he seems to be playing pretty tight.
    I wouldn't say it's a bad fold either though just a bit on the nitty side.

    Im not sure exactly how deep everyones stacks are but my initial thought was they werent all deep enough to warrant a call.

    Plus the fact there was a limp utg, the original raiser and a caller still to act behind him leaving him open to a squeeze if he flats.

    I think its fine and was surprised Gabe made such a big deal of it in commentary.

    I thought the TT was a pretty standard fold, he's never getting paid if he hits anyway, as soon as he puts a chip in the pot they'll all run a mile.

    If that was his thought process then surely he'd be raising more often to exploit his image.

    Or since the one I've just quoted?

    Man, be a dick all you like, I couldn't give a rat's ...

    I gave an opinion, you had a cry because it differed from yours, you seem like a knob about it so you get that response - it's very simple. Act like an adult and you won't get "childish" responses. Do you just hang around here all day waiting for someone to post an opinion you disagree with? then 'try' to act all clever in retort? ... don't give up the day job son ;)

    The dynamics of the Durrr challenge could get very interesting when the hand limit is approaching, depending on who is ahead by what amount.

    I was thinking the same. Could end a bit like this. Railbirds will be shouting the poker equivilant of "just take it into the corner PA"

    Not really sad to see Daniel go - he's a terribly whining pain in the nuts when he's losing. I find he's a great man to throw subtle digs in when he's winning as well so fcuk him imo

    Eli is a pain in the nuts as well - constantly commenting on people's play. He absolutely breaks Barry up constantly for some reason.

    Found myself wanting durrr to win that big pot for some reason - he's won me over on this show with the way he's played tbh.

    Great episode again. Few really showing the pain which makes it seem very genuine.

    I dont think I can stomach watching Esfandigruesome individual and the rest for the next few weeks though.

    The best HSP I've ever watched.

    Agreed, it's been fantastic.

    Gutted durrr is out of the rest of it - he's been the clear star of the show imo.

    My thoughts on the rest:

    Eastgate played reasonably well.
    Don't think I ever want to watch Doyle play again.
    Barry G was destroyed by durrr, played a notable pot against Eli well.
    Benyamine was a big disappointment, played way snugger than expected.
    Eli is a clown.
    Ziigmund wtf.
    Negreanu is clearly -EV in a game that tough imo.

    It was more of a "plea" than an offer from Greenstein imo.

    yeah, pretty pathetic I thought. He would still have been ahead after that pot anyway.

    Thankfully karma delivered unto him a good kick in the nuts (was even sweeter that the killer card was another queen instead of the flush ;)).
