1k plus 50, I think? It's heads up now, had a huge chip lead but he's a bit below even now.

It's sad that Raymer is lumped in w/ pretenders like Moneymaker and Dannenman all too often. The man has some skills.

Why is Dannenman a "pretender". He's solid but not great and he knows/tells everyone this.

Pretender?

I knew someone was going to bring this hand up. There was nothing wrong with his play. He could have reraised with J5o, and Raymer knew this. He pushed all in figuring there was a good chance of a fold, and if he called he would probably have two live cards. Results don't speak, especially in tournament poker.
