Don't question. The guy is good. There is no way to tell what he was thinking other than he thought he could push the other dude off. The real travesty is that they rake $2 from a $30,000 pot at 50/100 and have no problem raking $3 from a $60 pot at 0.50/1.00.

You also have to think that he was planning on showing this one off if his opponent folded. Imagine how hard that player would tilt if he laid down his set of dueces.

Its also great for building the insane maniac image, irregardless if the player calls or folds. I'm sure he bets the same way next time when he has it.

Finally, he lost 16k on this hand, but that's not even a full buyin in that game. I doubt you'd be as shocked if an aggressive player made this play in a $200 NL game losing $160. Relatively, its the same loss to him.

 if that's prahlad, i've watched him on royal vegas bluff off ~40k to.... this other guy who is really good, wanna say like white horse something, i dunno. although, I think prahlad was tilting at that point and the other guy knew it, other guy called the river bluff of like 30k with 2nd pair or something nuts.
i betcha that i got something you ain't got, that's called courage, it don't come from no liquor bottle, it ain't scotch

I am not familiar w/ UB, let alone this high of stakes, but is 10k not a standard buyin for this game?

Oh, you're right. I thought the big game on UB was a 100/200 NL game.
