Tried to post this last night, but because of new member post limit I couldn't.

"Just before the dinner break of the 2009 World Series of Poker (WSOP) Main Event, a hand brewed between Darvin Moon and Steven Begleiter. In it, Begleiter put in a raise to 3.9 million and Moon made the call to see the flop come 3-4-2. Begleiter bet 5.35 million and Moon made it 15 million. Begleiter shoved all-in for 21 million and only facing an extra six million to call, Moon folded despite getting prime odds on his money. The crowd was stunned, but a source told PocketFives.com that Moon held [B]K-Q offsuit[/B] in the hand and felt that he was drawing dead. Chants of “Begs, Begs, Begs” permeated the Penn and Teller Theater at the Rio and a five-minute break followed."

Is this not the worst play ever by Moon? Worse than the A4? And then not calling 7:1 pot odds? I laughed last night because after he laid it down I heard a woman in the background (probably Annie Duke) say "Do you know how to calculate pot odds?". I thought it was funny because it is entirely possible in the Main Event for some satellite amateur donk to get on a heater and run deep, without knowing how to. :)
