How to lay down aces - PKR Nation - For PKR 3D Poker and Casino Players

I watch a lot of High Stakes poker on YouTube. In fact I think I have watched every episode that's on there. I found this hand very interesting and it shows perfectly what control and discipline you need to play AA. Paul Wasicka limps from first position with AA then folds on the flop.

The hand I am talking about starts at around 6 minutes 15 seconds into the video. Listen to the commentary as he describes exactly why Wasicka folded and it is a lesson to be learnt for everyone who thinks AA is unbeatable and why you shouldn't go charging all-in on the flop

At the start of the clip, Jennifer Harman has AA but that's not the hand I am talking about

And if you haven't watched High Stakes poker before, it's a high level cash game so those thousands of dollars they are throwing around is actually there own cash. How I wish I was in that league. lol

You can see action here:

I didn't like the way he played it prefop, Even UTG he should have bet 2-3x the BB. As for the laydown, I'm not sure I would have layed that down until I saw the turn card. But he may very well have had a good read on Brunson. Either way it was a GREAT laydown.

I really need to fine a way to have these videos on here for everyone to see. I guess I've found a new project, lol

When you watch a video clip, if you look to the right there are two boxes. One contains the URL of the file, the other contains HTML to embed the file into your website

Yeah I know, What I was referring to was using the embed code on here, it doesn't work. I need to add a special mod for it or create a page outside of Vbulletin.

WoW! - I just watched the 06 WSOP and saw Wassica, who had been playing for 2 years, come 2nd. Now I see him in high stakes poker. It left me wondering how long his $6million will last lol. (bear in mind he used $5k on a credit card and got down to his last $500 at one stage when he was learning how to play) - sorry - off topic :-)

Dodgey, these tournaments are usually free for the players and Wassica also won the Headsup Challenge earlier this year, so I wouldn't be too concerned with his bankroll. I also think he's a very solid player who seems to have heads head on properly.

Once you make it, life becomes a whole lot easier

You don't need a special mod. You currently have the option of HTML Code set to 'off', so you won't be able to embed it.

I have set up and run a few forums in the past (though not poker ones) and it has been a while since I worked with vBulletin, but there should be a backend option to turn HTML code on. You shouldn't allow this for everyone though as it's open to abuse, but it should be an option for Admins only. Set that and you should be good to go. Like I said, it's been a while so I may have remembered wrong.

If you need any help with any part of the site, let me know and I'd be happy to try and help

I tried that a couple of months ago and it didn't work

There is a mod for it, I just have to find it again.

Hows that?

Just put the link in and Vb will automatically convert it. Works for Google videos as well
