What can he possibly have when he cold calls my reraise for half his stack? I’m not paying him off. Oh, and KT is ahead of the opener’s range. Seriously.

I think pre-flop is OK since I’m getting good immediate + implied odds and I know what he has. I’m in fine shape on the flop.

They both got owned in the same hand:

They both could have gotten away if they weren’t morons. The best part is that this pot catapaulted the winner into a huge chiplead, more than twice the guy in 2nd place. I think he may be a reader of my blog (he made a comment about me hating min-raisers) and regardless he seems like a cool guy so I’d love to see him do well.
