custom36 4 Posted July 31, 2006 Share Posted July 31, 2006 Demented avengers didn't choke. They lost to the better team. JS. Link to post Share on other sites
GrinderMJ 0 Posted July 31, 2006 Author Share Posted July 31, 2006 Lol, I didn't watch many of the matches so I'm not going to say everybody just choked, but when all 5 of us lost, that's suprising. I know I could have won our match, but played very poorly, and thought that might be the case with other teams Link to post Share on other sites

fleung22 1 Posted July 31, 2006 Share Posted July 31, 2006 sorry, I just found it very suprisingYou're obviously right...I mean, what odds would you give that every single 10-4 team would lose on the same day?That's a 5-game underdog parlay. I don't think it's a matter of choking...the stars just aligned today. I'm not going to do the homework but I bet there's never been a week where all 5 of those teams lost at the same time.

sloshr 0 Posted August 1, 2006 Share Posted August 1, 2006 The way things are going around here, I'm just surprised none of the 10-4 teams got a default win to lock it all up. Link to post Share on other sites

copernicus 0 Posted August 1, 2006 Share Posted August 1, 2006 Id go with the alignment of the Stars. I dont think there is enough money involved here for "pressure" to have affected anyones play.Apparently Alf beat Zimmer on a 10 outer..im not sure when the money went in, but if it was on the flop neither one can be said to have choked.I railed therrinn's game and thought he played quite well. Custom was in control most of the game, but therrinn fought back a couple of times, and finally went out on rivered trips vs Aces up (if I remember correctly)...hardly a choke.In fact I think "choking" is way overused as an explanation for upsets in sports in general.

zimmer4141 0 Posted August 1, 2006 Share Posted August 1, 2006 Meh, I guess you can add me to the list of Week 15 chokers.Copernicus, hand went down, I had A9, board 9753, I bet 380 on the turn, he pushed for 700 more, I call, he had 66, hit an 8 on the river. Link to post Share on other sites
