if poker doesnt involve skill......someone explain this please !!!
Wow, this is such an amazing laydown. He knew he was beat on the flop. Didn't even have to bet to see where he was at. Johnny Chan is one HELL of a poker player.
How did Chan knew? With those ases, I think I would at least call the bet. Of course, next to these guys I know nothing about poker. It almost seems that Chan can read their minds. At this level, poker is not about the cards, it is truly about the players... amazing.

I love how everyone on the internet is a self-proclaimed pro.

"Easy read"
"Easy laydown"
"Nothing special"

1. If you flop a paired board while holding a pocket overpair and you immediately think to yourself you're going to fold at the first bet, you're playing scared money and you'll miss a lot of opportunities like that.

2. I doubt anyone watching this video would not lose a single chip after the flop with this hand on that board, me included.


The reason he laid it down is because he could not beat much else than a bluff. Someone would not have been likely to be in a hand with a 2, 3, or 6 due to the substantial raise pre-flop (3x BB). The only hand he could have beat that wasn't a bluff was QQ, KK, or AA. Because the better was out of position (two people to act behind him), it was likely he was not bluffing. I can see that now, but I'm not claiming I could have made that fold.
