Message: [QUOTE="blankoblanco, post: 841608, member: 11119"] i hate cantu as much as anyone but: he opened from steal position in a spot where he might open as much as 75% of his hands. brandon cantu is a very active player. the guy who reraised him was obviously aware of this. BC knows the guy knows and convinced himself that he was just making a play, so he went with his read and was wrong. it's possible that the size of the raiser's 3bet betrayed the strength of his hand, but it's also possible that he'd make the same sized raise on a resteal. the players at the table would probably have a better idea of those conditions than any of us could speculate i've seen BC butcher some hands (like the one where he knocked out raptor), but at face value, this is not necessarily one of them. he simply made a bad read in a spot where it's actually pretty standard to make a play also: what the heck is this doing in this forum?
