  2. Personally I think dreamgirl played that horribly...
     
  3. I agree, but i wasn't at table.

  4. dreamgirl likely played this hand optimally on all streets
  5. not against david pham. preflop is not optimal!
     
  6. is dreamgirl a girl?
  7. who is dreamgirl

    thats one hell of a call
  8. Definitely played it well. I don't see her getting anymore value from 85o then she did.

    I agree, I don't like preflop
  10. if u dont flat pre u dont get 3 streets of value from 85o. Flatting pre allowed him/her to win a big pot even if pham is it? doesnt have a huge hand. That being said if this is a level then i suck at life.

  11. i would agree that dream gorl got max value out of 85, but wouldn't david pham take a similar line w/ a Q, K, or A in his hand? i dont wanna try to downgrade someones play but it kinda looks like she was just hoping he didnt have a Q, K, A.
