    most people will do that to try and entice other players, if they have a good hand and think others might fold if the bets too much. 

    Many times when im playing and sometime raise small people fold very easy!

    It is a little stupid when the pot is that big though :/

    So, "Be the Analyst on TV".

    Your brief is to educate & entertain, with the VERY strict caveat that whilst constructively critiquing the players, one must NEVER be rude, or mock them. Thery are, after all, Clients, & lets also remermber, we all had to start somewhere, & being mocked serves no useful purpose.

    So there you are, blathering away in the Studio, & suddenly there is a bet of 20 into a 1,700 Pot.

    In line with your VERY STRICT brief from the Suits to be "on Message" as described above, what would YOU say?!

    I tried a little lateral thinking. "I see the weather took a turn for the worse today, eh Sarah?"......

    I think you handled it perfectly especially that hand as he bet 20 into the 1400 pot then on the turn bet 20 again into i think 2400 then when he rivered the straight over bet like 3000 and folded to the extra 1000 all in lol. 

     I would of hated to be in your position i couldn't believe what i was seeing especially as this wasn't exactly micro tables instead a  vegas final! would love to hear the guys thought process on the hand.


     You defiantly dealt with the hand very professionally by explaining where you think he went wrong, then having a bit of a joke about it and finally directing him to the poker clinic lol  


      Like i said last night on the thread for the show its why i love poker you have never seen everything lol
