yeah im watching, its nuts. sbrugby is defintely spewing huge in this match, this hand that you just posted, that flop call is horrendous. pretty exciting to watch for sure though.

Sbrugby is down approximately 400k. Do you know how much exactly? But Ive seen Ivey sucked out and run lol.

Sbrugby needs a sleep badly.

[simo_8ball]

that flop call is horrendous.

Without reads, assessing the hand is pointless. HU at those limits is so agressive that it is impossible to say whether it is good or bad.

It appears to be a very loose call, but if Ivey has been raising a lot of flops, there is a decent chance sbrugby is ahead.

He also has about 6.5:1 implied odds to hit the turn. While this on its own is not enough to justify the call, the combination of him possibly having the best hand as well as this, or even the chance that Ivey checks behind on the turn giving a free card probably makes it reasonable.

If it is a bad call, it is only a bad call by probably a relatively small margin.

Not to be an a$s or anything, but saying that sbrugby's play is horrendous at 300/600 NL is not really the place of a 1/2 NL player IMO. There's a lot of stuff going on in the match that you're unaware of and there's a reason that they're successful enough to be playing for that kind of money. I'm not saying that 300/600 players dont' make mistakes, but he probably made the call for very definitive reasons and he knew what he was doing.

I doubt he's leaning back, smoking and thinking, "I really knew what I was doing there ... "

I can't see how playing Ivey HU is +EV, unless they are sado-masochistic. Didn't SBrugby just recently suffer from giant losses? (like 30 buyins)

In PLO, yes.
