Has anybody seen an increase in ALL In's. And with junk. I am attributing it too the WSOP on TV. Although I have not seen one show I am sure that is a good reason. I was there and those games do not take just an hour. Actually really boring.
In fact I have reached a point that TV poker is not enjoyable. |

The Tahoe final table lasted over 12 hours, and was heads up almost 3. Espn crammed it all into an hour. The probably could have gotten in a few poker hands if they weren't fixated on JR Bellande and Norm's ex wife jokes.
But it's all +EV for us. Their beginners luck can only last so long. |

You shouldn't be on that end of it very often with the worst hand if you know what you're doing. Overtime it's awesome. |

This is true... but there's nothing nothing like two people going all in in front of you when you flopped the 2nd nut flush.

very nice hand. All the A's were gone on that one is the only bad thing. Glad you didn't have a Q pop up.  |

It was nice. And I'll probably never experience a win like this ever again in my lifetime.
Too bad it won't happen 15 years from now in a WPT showdown
