I’m not sure about the 55k bet but I think the 225k raise size is pretty bad. Need to stack 6x. Don’t want to give 6x an opportunity to just call that raise which probably doesn’t want to go bust nearing the bubble.
Obviously super gross to run into the higher quads.
I’d pretty quickly fold 6x to a shove in this spot and completely forget about the hand. This is a 10k, not your local casino.
People ain’t bluffing 80BB 200 spots from the money or w/e this was on a board everyone checks quads, where he raises the guy who led into everyone on said board, with 3 people behind.
Also I think betting before river is a mistake, it’s really hard for anyone to have a 6 here and they’d more likely bet if anything themselves. Betting also denies the someone might take a stab equity.

I have noticed Shulman has toned way down on his deeper hand analysis. I only heard blockers a few times. I think they’re making a conscious effort not to rip the amateurs for doing stupid shit - which is a bummer because I liked that part. But as I know from my home game - amateurs do not
We made this 6 person 5 players per team last longer draft. One of my friends last pick was “the dude who will sit behind me on day 1 of the main”. He indeed took a photo and got the name of the player.
Quick question on horses, since you mentioned it. How do taxes typically work when people buy pieces? I’ve never bought or sold a piece of a tournament so have no clue.
Moneymaker making a deep run would be the best possible story. I think I’ve also found the worst, which means it’ll definitely be the one this universe will give us:
