Unusually I'm not in this one but it was so delightful to watch the hand and the aftermath I thought I'd share..
jmxthievez1 is a maniac.. bluffing on volume and loose... offering advice to ppl on how to play..you know the type. Ten hands earlier he'd run into my trips and given me $35.. Other sharks were circling..no one believed his bets.. and when the end came it was wonderfully "unfair"

-------------------------------------------------------------------
Now the point is how unfair was it? OK Cordfisher hit a 2 outer (and the chat turned blue at this). What jmxthievez1 forgot was that he called a preflop raise from a very TA, OOP and even with a $3 bet there were sufficient implied odds to make the turn call.. And of course his river betting was well out of line.. with the flush on and considering I'd just hit him with trips to a fh..
What jmxthievez1 also forgot was the times that all the 2 6, 8 outers hadn't converted previously and the 40% calls he'd made that won through... It was only a matter of time.
Although it was fun to watch.. what invariably kills these players is a combination of tilt,rake and overvaluing poor holds..
Postscript.. I realise I folded a flush.. thank god...
Death of a maniac..
