i thought it was an ok laydown. Look at how Pham played it. He raised before the flop, and then checks it, then check-calls. i don't know about you but that shows some strength to me. But even if i knew i was beat i wouldn't laydown 3 10's lol

I finally saw this. It was a HORRIBLE laydown. If you're going to fold a set of 10s, let it go preflop! What was he looking for? Top set? Quads? Come on....

When the turn was checked to him, I thought he was making a mistake by checking (the board was getting dangerous), but when the third guy bet, I thought he'd be gold with the all-in check raise. I couldn't even believe it when he folded.

I guess he was just in survival mode, hoping to sneak up a few spots. That's not how I play, but to each their own. If you are going to play like that though, fold preflop!

The funny thing was when he told Ivey and Pham what he had, they didn't even believe him. LOL.

Actually, almost everyone I talked to is convinced that this hand was forged by ESPN. If you watch, you only see one of his 10s, and it really seems like they guessed for the other one. The way the hand played out, it really seems a lot more likely that he had A10 or something like that.

Paul Philips posted something about this in his blog too:

you're talking about the wrong hand bro

the laydown of the set of tens was legit... did you see how the guy reacted when the hands were shown?

the hand phillips talks about is lisandro vs ivey TT vs 99 on 4445 board.

he even writes this at the bottom
