@TheGrannyWhore every poker player would put him in the top 5 but yeah he was underrated, this year he is running like the sun so everyone is noticing him.

He really does run bad, I like Mike.

tony g is right, should of got the insurance

[moctezuma2008]

@biohazardcel Why insurance? there were only three dueces out, the only possible way he could get beat which is around a 12 %. When the 7 came on the turn, that only gives him 6 outs and one card to come which is around the same percentage as the flop. The worst case scenario is Eric having two spade overcards and still mike is a good favorite since he already took one spade from him giving him 8 outs assuming nobody had a spade. I would agree to run it twice if I know im about 60 or 50 % fav

[moctezuma2008]

@biohazardcel plus the 2 aces remaining is about 25 % favorite on the flop. at best, he can run it 4 times but I still think a 75 % is a safe investment and you should not run it more than once

[Agasajo]

@moctezuma2008 lol it doesn't change a thing running it twice or 10 times it just makes several smaller pots but the % are the same. running it once helps for example phil ivey were everyone knows he allways runs it once and bluff less but as far as safe investment is way better to allways runs it 4 times to help with variance. but people will tend to bluff a bit more which can be bad or good depending on your style.

mike shouldn reraise seidels bet

[moctezuma2008]

@Furthermore23 Really? Isn't he suppose to charge him if he's drawing? The way the hand was played, Siedel could easily had two overcards spade or an overpair. why should he let Siedel see more cards? Mike was WAY ahead.
