Aaron Kanter is a terrible poker player.

You cannot be serious.

He has K5 in the BB. Tex Barch has K7 in the SB. Hachem has J9 on the button.

KT7 flop. Tex Checks. Kanter Checks. Hachem Bets 450,000. Tex makes it 1,000,000. Kanter makes it 2,000,000. Hachem Folds. Tex now makes it like 4,500,000. Kanter moves all in!?

I actually liked the play against Hachem. Hachem's most likely holding on that raggy board is a one-pair hand - I think Kanter was just waiting to pop him on the turn if any 9, J, Q, K, or A hit.

The play against Tex is horrible though. The 1st raise isnt bad - he figures Hachem for a steal, and figures Tex knows this so Tex is likely bluffing too. But when Tex puts in that 4th raise - time to fold. Really bad all-in. Tex said it himself - something like, "I haven't made a play all night..."

This is the typical bad player in high stakes poker though - not loose-passive, but super loose-aggressive. When this guy runs bad - he's out on day one and then probably spewing chips at your nearest 10/20 table. When he runs well - hello final table.
