Message: [QUOTE="Jay R, post: 6175309, member: 262103"] I’ve watched & played lots of famous pros play. And one thing is they all bluff, they all are a bit sick, they look at spots a bit differently than a straight logical proposition. I thought Phil Helmuth was the most logical player out there until I saw him play a losing hand against Tom Dwan. It wasn’t one on one but the betting came down to these two. Logic vs crazy bettor. Phil vs Tom. At least you would think so. But this hand Phil wouldn’t let go. He had a pair of 3’s versus 3- 10’s. Any novice could see fold.. but he thought about it for 5 minutes—called & lost $100,000 hand. Did he think Lucky Tom was bluffing-/ must have. But I could not believe Tom keeps raising & Phil keeps calling w) nothing. So I guess it proves when you play a loose cannon like Tom don’t try to guess his cards. Most poker pros are sick, compulsive bettors.. but use that to your advantage to trap them [/QUOTE]
