@@edwinpaduafontan4036 if that's the case just keep it simple even at these stakes but wtf do I know, Tom's 1000 levels above me

[@Userabc123lmnop]

“The only hand I’d slow roll is a chop” Kind hearted gentleman or an artist buttering up his whale?

[@canadianbakn]

I know yours is a bit of a joke but my take is Tom was being 100% genuine. Unless someone is being a real jerk at the table or some extreme circumstances he doesn't slowroll ever, besides messing with people on a chop.

[@kingmo565]

Durr pretended afterwards, he truly trusted Steve when he said he had J 2, but tried to kick him off the hand on account of the kicker. Durr knows when more empathetic people tell the truth. I truly believe Durr is a psychopath. That's why he bet $50k, it wasn't a value bet, it was to kick a J with a low kicker off.

[@SoulfightPoker]

You think Dwan tried to get a whale to fold trips by betting 50 into 150..

[@jordanturnbull2560]

Interesting take utter nonsense but interesting

[@ckookiemonster]

when people tell you a random hand. its usually the truth

[@TetrisPimp]

When people tell you the Truth, its a random hand 😂

[@Gennosuke1983]

There is no rule, it can be the truth or reverse psychology. Also if the board has a pair, the most common hand people say they have is that card + a deuce, because it's the lowest kicker. It's a normal response, but doesn't mean anything

[@canadianbakn]

Corollary: on a 622 board "I don't have a 2" usually means "I have 66". "I don't have A2" they mean "K2". On a paired board with a possible flush "I don't have a flush" usually means "I have a boat". People (especially recreational players) love to be coy with their wording. As with any assumption at the table I first assume it's true, because it often is, but if I get shown a hand later that disproves that I throw out that assumption. It's right much more than half the time in my experience. Compounded by if people are chatty in a hand they're usually very comfortable because they have the nuts/a very strong hand.

[@lukeeasty]

Not in this spot. Its weird because he wanted a raise and told him he had a strong hand. Thats what got dwan confused, it was brilliant.

[@Ekid33]

I agree with this. More precisely, if someone tells you they have two specific cards, it's profitable to assume they have those cards. They could be bluffing, but in my experience no one balances their "tell my opponent my cards" range XD. In any given river, your opponent might reasonably have one of 10-20 combinations of cards, so if your opponent tells you they have a particular pair of cards (e.g. I have J2s), you can exploit that information by playing as if it's true, even if they're only telling the truth 25% of the time. And yes, you could get leveled, but in my experience, 99+% of the people who do this are recreational players who don't know the meaning of the term 'balanced range'. They play most of their hands silently. Then all of a sudden they tell you they have two cards in some weird river spot; generally, it's for the meme when you call/fold and they turn over the two cards they said they had.

[@davidstud3952]

Loved the guy, never backed out of the game even when he was alone with pros.

[@shaconlikebacon]

Tom was not on his game last night, except for the one preflop bluff where he won like 100k, hope he comes correct tonight

[@itslevi00]

Hopefully not it's more fun when he loses tbh

[@rrrto2005]

Bad luck, nothing to do

[@KingZoa]

Ngl Tom wanted to get ahead early which we all wanna do but once Tom lost one pot, he was tighter than everyone there until he plays 9-4 and gets punished for it

[@Ectomesoendo]

He owes a lot of people money. It's hard to play his style with that in the back of your mind

[@KingZoa]

@@Ectomesoendo he also isn’t able to be a super user on this game like in most ACR rigged games

[@bleepbloop6234]

I've done this a few times and it has always worked. Small sample size, and obviously it's not something you can do repeatedly to the same person, but 3 or 4 times I've been asked what my hand was when I had the nuts, I offhandedly said "I have the nuts, obviously" and every time I was raised or called by a worse hand lol.

[@aikothegreat4969]

Steve used to play in our house game around 2008 in Chicago

[@HRinc]

Is he the drunk guy that people used to raffle seats in the game that he played in ?

[@aikothegreat4969]

No. He is a very cool guy. We call him bob saget cause he looked like him. It was a game right behind Starbucks in kedzie north of Montrose avenue. He had a buddy a firefighter named Dan. He’d play with us all night. He was a corporate lawyer back then but now he is a circuit judge. He was a top lawyer of Quinn Emanuel Urquhart & Sullivan before he became a judge.

I think Steve was showing some inexperience in that spot. When he was called and said you got it, he genuinely thought he was behind and didn't want to put more in. Then he said, lets just run it and he binked the Jack. The alarm bells should have gone off with Tom and when he min bet, he absolutely should have just called and not put another $50k in.
