Of course it was a bad lay down, but it wasn't stupid. It's no limit. You can make a bad read at any time and your tourney is over. If it had been anyone besides Helmuth across from him, I'm sure that Tony would have played. It's kind of bogus when people are judging a guy's play when they only saw 5 hands at that table on t.v. instead of knowing what the other 300 hands they played that day were like. There's a certain level of karma that surrounds a table. Maybe that played a hand in Tony's lay-down. Maybe he caught a couple of bad-beats that weren't televised. Whatever the case may be, I'm sure that all the losers that sit at home and play nickel and dime games think they can stand-in with the big boys and hold their own.I guess it's idiots like that that allow the pro's to make their living playing cards.By the way, someone told me that Tony was from Minneapolis, is that true?
