Kinda lame to not see a flop or 2 but i guess i cant blame the guy. And the best thing of all is that he busted hellmuth with a suck out river.
Chances are he wins the NAPT package

ya I saw that. the win against PH was awesome!! I don't think I would have folded the AA, sick how the quads came though... Either way, folding those big hands is probably smart because the pros could have just raped him playing scared money....
Cheers.

he could open ship Aces as dumb as that sounds. That has to be better then folding

Thats sick I didn't see the hand, and its easy for me to say that without having that money in front of me. I probably would still open for a raise, but if for some reason I was contemplating folding it I would just open ship and try to get someone to run it with me twice if they do call.

I forget, I think it was Phil Laak that had 66 and two 6s came on the board....

Laak is a nit so shipping he at least takes down the blinds. I still think shipping has to be 100000000% better then folding. What are you ever getting called with AA KK... maybeeee QQ? You get called by KK run it twice if need be.

its pot limit preflop, shipping not an option

Oh ok, I have never seen the show at all as you can tall. That makes sense to prevent the Loose Cannons from doing crap like that. Ehh I guess folding is fine then. He will play so badly postflop on scared money he is better off folding.

He can't shove preflop, it's pot limit before the flop, but he could raise pot preflop and ship afterward, unless he got some nasty flop.
On the other side he locked the profit of over 100K plus NAPT package is worth another chunk of money, so I understand his logic.

he did the right how many times u see big hands getting burn and those are pro, they will take him to the cleaners in no time
do u see the range of hands they play preflop and since its pot limit preflop they will come
