Don't Tap the Aquarium... and Defend the Fish

[EscapePlan9]

$10 SNG on UB.

LAG min-raises UTG. Folded to BTN makes a HUGE re-raise all-in with AKo. UTG calls with QJs. Flop comes Q-high and UTG wins it. Discussion follows:

UTG: "qj is a favorite over ak"
me: "yeah, it's suited and makes more straights"
BTN: "that's the stupidest thing i've ever heard in a SNG"
BTN: "AK is a 62.4% favorite over qj"
me: "that's just what simulations say, not how it actually happens"
UTG: "once the q hits you win"
me: "and Qs hit more often than aces or kings"
me: "QJ suited is the luckiest hand ever, seriously"
BTN: "no it's not! look it up!"
BTN: "someone want to back me on this?"
UTG: "i called because who knows the crap you play, doofus"

I wish BTN would have stopped tapping the aquarium. Defend the fish at all costs!

Everyone else at the table hears the conversation. And I might play against them in later tournaments. I sure hope they don't learn from this - hell I hope UTG loves his QJs even more now.

Yea, don't wanna scare away the fish at them $10 SnGs, I hear they are few and far between.
