Poker After Dark, "Jam Up Week"

David Williams, Howard Lederer, Mike Matusow, Barry Greenstein, Antonio
Esfandiari, Eli Elizra in "Jam up Week" (Most agressive players).

The very first hand, Lederer gets pocket rockets and raises to 600.
Barry bluffs his 10-4 offsuit with a raise to $2,400.
Folds around to Eli who goes all in with Ace King offsuit.
Of course, Lederer calls and Barry folds.

The board is no help and Eli busts out on the very first hand! There was a stipulation that if anybody busts out
on one of the first six hands, they could rebuy for $20,000. Eli does stick around and buy back in.

Another fantastic segment is Matusow calls the $200 minimum with his pocket nines.
Barry folds but Eli raises to $1,100 with his Ace Eight suited. The table folds
around to Matusow who just calls the $900 raise.

Flop comes 2 6 8 with two clubs. Nobody has a flush draw.
Matusow checks his overpair but Eli bets $1000 with top pair top kicker.
Matusow raises to $2500 (with the best hand) and Eli calls.

Turn brings another duece to the board, (6 8 2) +2 hearts
Mike bets out $2500 and Eli tosses out a $10K bundle of cash.
Eli never stated raise so it is just a call. That's all he intended it to be.

Mike gets frustrated thinking that it's a raise and tosses his best hand in the muck! Another classic blowup!

Needless to say, the table can't help but tease and ridicule Mike. Even Barry was laughing!

rofl @ lederer being 'aggressive'

Barry was wondering how Lederer got on this week's show too

Howard Lederer calls matusow's muck 'donktastic'.

Hilarious

The Professor had David W against the ropes when David calls all in with JJ while HL had AA. David sucks out a J on the river to knock The Professor out and ends up winning it all. Even the pros suck out. The Professor took the Bad Beat like a true professional.

Agreed. I'm always impressed by the way Lederer handles himself at the tables.

Every once in a while he'll throw in a 'donktastic'.
