Zach6668 513 Posted November 28, 2007 Share Posted November 28, 2007 I made this hand up, sorta. Both players are very good poker players.Hero ($12 million)MP ($more)LP ($no idea)Preflop: Hero is EP with , . I have no idea.Flop: ($a little bit) , , (3 players)They didn't show this part in the movie.Turn: ($little bit more) (3 players)This either.River: ($and more still) (3 players)Hero bets $500,000, MP raises to $1,000,000, LP folds, Hero raises to $2,000,000, MP raises all-in.Is this an instacall? Does a smart player make this shove with a worse hand than ours?Is it an instacall if our winning this poker tournament decides whether or not our government directly finances terrorism by losing money to a guy who helps the terrorists out? Just wondering.(Yes, I realized this is a retarded topic, and yes bbfidts, but humour me, plz) Link to post Share on other sites

Andromeda 0 Posted November 28, 2007 Share Posted November 28, 2007 I made this hand up, sorta. Both players are very good poker players.I suck so I fold.but seriously, yeah I think I would have to insta-call and puke when villain flips up JJ. I think that theory is right...I personally find it hard to get away from a full boat. Only once in my poker career (albeit short) have I lost to boat over boat/higher holding when I had a boat. The boat is magical Link to post Share on other sites

Zach6668 513 Posted November 28, 2007 Author Share Posted November 28, 2007 Yeah, lol. I was just thinking, like, would a good, thinking player shove here with anything besides AA or JJ? I mean, I think I'm being results oriented, but I have no idea. Link to post Share on other sites

I mean, I think I'm being results oriented, but I have no idea.2 remaining combos of K-J and 2 remaining combos of A-K vs 1 combo of J-J and 1 combo of A-A...And they all take this line.

Zach6668 513 Posted November 28, 2007 Author Share Posted November 28, 2007 I kinda just out thought myself on this one.I was thinking that He shouldn't shove here without AA or JJ, or with Kx because the only hands that could call are AK and Kx, but if I'm saying we're folding AK here, or another Kx, then clearly shoving with Kx is a good play if it folds a chop or better hand.Basically, my head just exploded.

NoBBiR 0 Posted November 28, 2007 Share Posted November 28, 2007 i hate it when i have 3rd nuts for $24million+ and the fate of the worldLOL.Yeah, lol. I was just thinking, like, would a good, thinking player shove here with anything besides AA or JJ? I mean, I think I'm being results oriented, but I have no idea.Actually, I'm going to go out on a limb here and say that the makers thought that when they gave him AK, they thought he had the 2nd nuts, and just forgot about AA. I love Hollywood.Also, in Lucky You, isn't it funny when Eric Bana bets with a flush draw and Drew Barrymore says "One more heart and you've got a flush," and yet everyone folds. If any of the players didn't suck, wouldn't they shove ATC? I LOVE HOLLYWOOD. Link to post Share on other sites

Acid_Knight 2 Posted November 28, 2007 Share Posted November 28, 2007 They were playing a limit game, I believe.Edit: Or maybe not.They were playing limit preflop and on the flop and then they'd spontaneously make large raises.Also, I wanted to punch him each time he flicked his chips into the pot!

David_Nicoson 1 Posted November 28, 2007 Share Posted November 28, 2007 In a hand like this, it's important to check the room for cameras. If you find the camera man and a director, you can fold the second or third nuts with confidence. Link to post Share on other sites

Royal_Tour 0 Posted November 29, 2007 Share Posted November 29, 2007 lol @ zach, although, I hate this movie, I thought the exact same shit, like wouldnt there be a raise, re-raise, then call preflop, then a bet raise ,call flop. then bond should think, hmm. i'm thinking villain has a set, then her turns the boat, which isnt even the nut boat, since AA is possible.and then a J on the river, obv villain isnt going to 3 bet with air, and even if he does, bond should just be calling cuz a raise wont get paid off.also. The other thing that makes me angry is when Lechiffre tells a guy he has a 14% chance to hit, so the guy will fold? like comon, u want him investing chips in there. and why the fuk do all the hands have to be coolers?like boat over boat over straight flush? set over set would do just fine.

It doesn't make sense to a poker players because we know the fish would never normally fold a draw there, no matter what you say. Link to post Share on other sites
