Guy had an 8 for the boat, quads take it down. So I ask bozo, what, didn't like your quads lmao. And he says, thought he might of had quad eights. Could of got the guy for another $1500 because he wasnt laying down his boat. Point being is I see this mistake made so much it aint even funny, players get a premium hand and bet it like a girl because there is 1 hand out there that can beat you. Horrible poker.
I think that is different then the hand in question. The correct move in the above situation is to re-raise b/c there are several calling hands like pocket duds to match the turn, or one 8 like he had. PPP's point was that the only calling hand was the 6th nuts and it would be a call for all your chips in the WSOP main event. Totally different scenario. I make money playing poker but am no high stakes pro, but I definitely wouldn't have reraised there. My reasoning would be similar, there is no way he is calling down his whole stack unless he has the royal. Also I think PPP has won a WSOP bracelet before so he knows what he's talking about .
