the 'greatest' is quickly humbled

He won the hand, you won the pot.

If this was a $20 buy-in or less, I'll laugh so hard given what he said...

LMAO nice!

The money went in PF so his comments are pretty funny.

He got all the chips in the middle with the best of it.

To an extent your game depends less on this because you depend on picking up the loose change by picking up pots where no one has any real strength. Also, the hyper-aggression mixed with thin calls (my-god-will-this-guy-ever-laydown-a-hand-I-just-can't-play-back-at-him) induces some really comical errors from your opponents. All of this offsets the numberous occasions where you get a fair chunk of change in there with the worst of it.

All that being said, poker is about getting the best of it and in NLHE with small blinds you really want lots of chips in center when you have a big edge or at worst a slight dog.

He got the best of you unless you can argue that A5s figures to be the best hand here.

Fnord, this thread is obviously here for its comical value, not its poker excellence.

I guess "the greatest" is too scared to play post flop with AKs.

be nice tcp, fnord said it was funny too.

also bonus points for him complaining about the "runner runner flush" when we're all in preflop.

I know, I know, but Fnord seemed to be bringing a more serious tone into a very lighthearted and funny thread.

should be moved to tales of poker. theres clearly no analysis to be given here.
