Ben Lamb loses the minimum with KK ag AA @WSOP2011 Main Event

[mrtomyp92]

i dont agree completly with phil galfond's analysis. i dont think making a 4 bet preflop is a wrong play at all, but im also not saying that a slowplay is wrong too. My point is that it is indeed a big risk to play a big pot post flop if you just call a reraise preflop, but not if you are 4 betting or 5 betting preflop with kings.

Ben Lamb is the new Phil Ievy. This player is fucking sick.

This hand is huge, but you only know how huge it is if you`ve seen the entire WSOP and know Ben`s style. He is usually super aggressive and you can see Darcort`s amazement at the end, he is shocked how Ben didnt 4 bet him pre. Not only that, but he also didnt raise him on the non-Ace flop or the turn.

I think he made to like 5 WSOP final tables and also has one bracelet. Amazing player and a rising star.

@godu1111 Hes been on a really hot run over the last few years and really is emerging as one of the best in the game. However, I wouldnt go and say he is Ivey-status yet since obviously Lamb has no cash-game experience.

Like a boss!

The most impressed I've come away with any hand in a long time. How many players would've reraised shoved, pre-flop?

Sick.

[jamesabrook]

@IOYB ALmost no-one would have shoved pre-flop, 7 million chips into a 600k pot? bit ott. Re-raise is definitely on the cards though.

@jamesabrook

No, I mean, reraised and then 4-bet shoved. I guarantee you at least half of the players in the tourny would've done so. Why risk someone sucking you out with Ace-rag or something when you have them crushed preflop?

[jamesabrook]

@IOYB oh right, yeah that could happen. I think Ben could be good enough to lay it down, but I guess we'll never know. I know I couldn't xD

[IOYB]

@jamesabrook

Yeah, me neither lol.
