    Don't know if this one is on the top 100 or not?

    Spoiler alert - it's about as bad beat as ya can get.

    number 39 -- starting at the 3:10 mark

    5:24 -- "bye bye" 😅

    when Hellmuth buries his head in his hands, you know it's brutal

    you'll never be able to outrun a bad diet

    Both still playing at the highest levels.

    I've mentioned this before. I still say we at Sports Talk should pool our resources and send a CU member to the WSOP. It would be the coolest thread of all time.

    I'm not going to be that player for various reasons, or handle the money. That being said, I am willing to buy-in. I'll up my contribution to 1k which is 10% of what is needed. We'd need the other 90%, plus a player who has played a lot of poker.

    I'm not looking to lose. I'm not going to invest in some newbie or schleprock poker player. Also has to be a CU member with a certain amount of posts and years on CU.

    Oh well, I guess it ain't gonna happen. Crickets again. 🦗

    One helluva fold.

    i once saw, it was around two years ago at Hustler, Garrett Adelstein make a similar fold. May have been the exact same cards.

    That fold illustrates what separates the elite from the rest.

    The mentioned Adelstein hand is on Youtube. Exact same cards. But the hand with Adelstein was a much tougher fold based on the bet sizing.

    @stevek

    speaking of Adelstein, did you ever see this?

    Yes, I could do a dissertation on that hand.

    Bottom line - Robbi was completely innocent. Garrett was being paranoid.
