      6 Bet jam especially for 6x the 5bet usually means AK or AA at least, and Mariano has two kings blocking half the combos of AK, not surprising to tank (only 3 minutes as well, not even that long) when there is a good chance you are beat. @@andrewgillespie9064

      @@lexrogerson1957 agreed. 6 bet jamming in that spot only has AQ if someone is playing very exploitative. AK suited sometimes will 6 bet Jam. AK off I think rarely 6 bet jams in that spot but more often being out of position. KK and AA will find the 6 bet jam. QQ never needs to 6 bets jam.
      Essentially it’s AA / KK / AK suited and sometimes AK off and you block the two combos of AK suited. More than reasonable to think for 2 minutes. Lot more reasonable than to tank for 4 minutes on the river with King high flush on a shove re-shove spot with the 6th nuts. Nitball just an ass

      cause he know hes in the "wrong" in this spot, tanking with KK vs a spot is a nitroll he even admitted it. sure he is prob a nice guy and a class act, but he also understands he "needs" this game, i dont know about his overall results in HCL, but hes for sure one of the crushers in these lineups, nobody likes to play with pros who are crushing + taking a lot of time, literally nobody likes that, Mariano is also aware of that, so he needs to be a class act. an arrogant pro who crushes + takes a lot of time wont get back into this game.

    Nik can SUCK IT. I was in a similar situation, at a way smaller stakes table (2/5) and got pocket Kings. I open-raised 3x. Everyone folded except one caller. Flop comes 10-3-2. Safe as you can get. I lead out for 50. Opponent IMMEDIATELY JAMS. I'm like wtf?? I didn't snap it off. I kept saying it's gotta be pocket Aces or pocket 10's. I went deep into the tank. NO one at table made a noise. I apologized twice, even after showing my Kings, no one said anything. After about 3-4 mins I folded. It was just TOO strong how fast and confidently he shoved, and how he had no look of fear when I showed the Kings while thinking. When I folded THEN everyone started talking - not mad - just saying he's got AQ, QQ, bluffing, etc. Guy was nice and he turned over Aces and everyone said "nice FOLD" to me. This had ballooned to a $500 pot, a lot for me, and so the point of this is, no one should have any right to rush anyone with their own money. Nik is a DIK, PERIOD

    I timed Mariannos tanking at 2 minutes and 24 seconds. That's a very reasonable amount of time to call a $50,000+ all in. Everyone giving Marianno a hard time was way out of line. I've seen people fold KK pre flop a few times.

I don’t know when he became the Governor HCL but Airball is probably the worst high stakes regular player I can ever remember. Eric Perrson might give him a run for his money but I don’t think it’s really all that close. Similar personalities too.

    Tanking with a king high flush on a paired board is ridiculous, obviously your up against the nut flush and a boat bare minimum. It's an easy fold with Nik's hand.

    Mariano is a class act! Airball possibly sick in the head for calling someone out of line for taking ~2 minutes in a 6bet spot with kings.
