(LC) One of the most inexplicable calls I've seen in a while

[taipan168]

Erm, I guess he dominates 32o, he's slightly ahead of 42o and he's got an overcard if opp has 22 or 33, but beyond that I sort of struggle to see what he's ahead of...must be either a misclick or his "favourite hand".

but they were suited........

[TwoKicker]

Yea Tai did you miss the fact that they were suited?

[Da GOAT]

i honestly dont see what wrong with it

[Im_new]

I don't either, someone please tell me. THEY- WERE- SUITED! He had like 51/49 against any unsuited hand...right?

[Random_Hero]

I hope you's guys are being sarcastic lol...!!

ridiculous call...

[mattiesmat]

Seems fine.

ofcourse, its especially ahead vs pocket Aces because those are never suited.

Wait, I am confused, unsuited cards can make flush 2 ways, so actualy they are 2 to 1 favorite vs suited cards, so its a bad call

Im_new, I assume u were joking, if you were serious post it and I will seriously explain why it is a bad call

I've been away for a week and this is the first thread I see... I put the odds of this statement being a level at about 50/50. It either is some sort of trick, or it isn't imo.

FTR =2+2 BBV it would seem...

but they were sooooooted........

FYP

Yea Tai did you miss the fact that they were sooooooted?

FYP

I don't either, someone please tell me. THEY- WERE- SOOOOOOTED!

FYP

THERE!! Now it's standard.................for a donkey.

Look, seriously, a suited hand has 3 ways to make the best hand, a 2,4 or flush. An off suit hand can only make pairs, in this case an ace or ten.

Because of that the suited hand is a 3 to 2 favorite or in math terms 3:2. Taipan I find it funny that the mod of the sng forum does not know this. Frankly, I think it's grounds for removal of modship. I for one, would gladly accept the new position but would in turn force all of the sng players to learn mtts. Thank you for your time.

24 is maybe 37% to win?

[swiggidy]

I'm not sure what level were at, thinking about that makes my head hurt.

[spin_md]

It was clearly a bluff call, one of the lesser used strategies of the true poker champion.

AND THEY WERE SOOOOTED!

3:2 that's the same as 300:200, right?

So he coulda won $3 Miiiiilllllliiioooonn Dollllllars? No wonder he called.

[mattiesmat]

By the way you guys forget that he can also make a straight flush, full house or quads, which is really good.
