Ok, so I'm clowning a bit on the 25PLO players now  :-)

I thought this hand was a bit amusing.  My play is not very interesting at all, but I think his play is.  It's just such a wonderful example of how to maximally misplay a hand.

* He checks back top set on the flop

* When the turn brings a straight and some draws he gets worried and pots it

* Then on the river when the next draw hits, he somehow decides that his top set is good

* In fact so good that he calls a river 3-bet with it

I just wonder what they say about that in fish school.  Must be that eternal fish thing of always checking when you have it, and betting/calling when you don't  ;-)

I'm just....  WTF???   :-)
