Nope, it wasn't a game I played or watched. I do know that players online get very upset when players vary from optimal play and still win, or when the cards come from out on the fat tails of the bell curve. But I'm usually called a "tard," not the tu word, by pre-pube (mentally) sore losers. I was playing a tournament last night where a player lost because he and the other guy both had A/K, and the other guy pulled a flush out of it. He said, "this kind of bull---- never happens in real poker." I told him to watch that night's rerun of The US Poker Championship from The Taj Majal to see a hand just like that knock a guy out in 6th place. The whiner told everyone that I worked for the poker site. <G>
