In Response to Re: 28k ftw, FT bubble, flop confusion : Of course we can't know villain has nothing. It becomes quite likely he is weak when he 3bets flop imo.  He's not throwing away 20% of his stack for 'nothing but ego', he's trying to gain chips by applying pressure on the bubble. Whether the play is good is debatable, but it's not neccesarily anything to do with ego Saying tournaments at any level can be won without this type of play is highly questionable, if other players are putting this kind of pressure on you you are really unlikely to win by waiting for cards.

I said ego ) toungu in cheek obviously but could be more of an adaptive play after the flat pre -  when oppo 3 bet flop as yeah it does look weak

flatting pre from the bb, is not putting pressure on anyone - maybe hero had the idea of playing back on flop but hey....only hero knows the motives

level, level - where it's kinda obvious that oppo is weak then likewise to oppo hero looks weak -

+1 to the applying pressure but do we think that 3 betting pre is better than repping nuts on flop after we flat pre and make it beleivable we do this with any ace or JJ :S

the whole hand just seems totally out of line
