david draw was A or 9 or 8 what gives him 11 outs the same durrrr draw backdoor flush any 7 any Q any turn card with Urindanger in the pot who played very bad 4 out 10s 2 outs Queens total 6 outs. Both durrrr and david could play on stacks but durrrr got anyway the hand with best odds to win durrrr rulles hes awesome !!!

You are a bit wrong....

Situation and outs on the FLOP:

David Benyamine - cards which improves his hand and gives him a straight: A, J, T, 9, Outs: 13
INFO: David knew he is behind on the flop, but with 13 outs and the big pot, he couldn't fold here. Its risky,yes, but its not wrong play, imo.

Urindanger - cards which improves his hand and gives him a straight: 10, Outs: 4, fullhouse: K,Q, Outs: 4 (Outs overall: 8)
INFO: He had a good hand on the flop with two pairs, which he thought is probably the best hand here, and with 8 outs left to improve his hand, it was a reasonable move.

Tom - cards which improves his hand and gives him a fullhouse: Q, Outs: 2 or Quads: K, Outs: 1 (Outs overall: 3) He won with a runner,runner flush, but it doesnt count here, on the flop.
INFO: With a set of Kings, Tom knew he got the best hand here with no doubts, the flop is rainbow and putting his opponents on straight draws or two pairs, he was still much ahead (durrrr +55%, urindanger +15% and david + 26% ). Typical durrrr play, its all-in time. Big Smile Blink

One king in the deck and of course durrrrrrrrrrrrrr hits it with his KK ... just too sick, hope he will lose it all .

Wish I had that kind of bank so I would be stuck with these kinds of situations. That's poker though

durrrr" A K K 8
"Urindanger" A K J Q
David Benyamine J T 9 6
Thats some hands for a kick off considering the flop...
If it was lower stakes you could still see a few players going all in from here.

its 800,000$ Big Smile

Well , i saw him yesterday on plo 200/400 ante 70
and 300/600 ante 100.

Gus lost a lot, dwan wasnt running good neither.
Galfond could win some money, same as Niki Jedlicka and Patrick Antonius.

Think they will shot some 500/1k plo today as durrr asked Ilari "ziigmund"
to play some higher limits.

Rly funny that a biglind > my br
 Exiles23/07/2009 13:11:08 GMT
Never understood the game, tried it a couple of times and never won, so gave up
 ADACTA23/07/2009 13:14:11 GMT
Many of those players cant rly play proper plo.

The game itself is still changing so that even books cant allways be uptodate.
Gus Hansem himself says he has much to learn, and i do believe this watching him play
 SuperNoob23/07/2009 19:12:08 GMT
Well done "Durrrr", now he's on a roll after overcoming his string of bad results. Good luck for the rest of year.
Gonna look out for him next time when i play on fulltilt.
 Fakiry25/07/2009 21:29:17 GMT
durrrr's year is really going to memorable, like i wrote i few months ago. So many ups and downs. There shouldnt exist that many poker players that can talk about loosing and winning so much in the same year, better, in the same semester! Patrick Antonius must be confused about is oponent, the only thing he knows is that durrrr's skill is very high.

Tom i luv you! i want a baby from u!

omg ... so nice blank cards on turn and river Smile) you always wish for them but they never come when you need them Smile
 Y2k8728/09/2010 14:09:36 GMT
i wish i would be that lucky and get only half of what he is making at the moment but he is on a high at the moment wich will come to an end and thats where it will show how good hes is of he backs away from the game cause of the downswing gus hansen is someone who doesnt know when to stop just hope durr aint like that
