Re: Some lessons are cheap.......

Boy, does that suck. My condolences. You shouldn't feel stupid--just regret, of course, for the lost pot. It's never happened to me, but I have heard many stories like yours, invariably from the player who had the best hand, realized it after sweating out a scary board, and excitedly fired down...

Re: I hate dropping the best hand....

Yes, I would call it. Many players overbet their hands and second high 2 pairs on non highly coordinated board imho deserve to be played. Three recent pots as illustration: $5/$10 Hold'em - Friday, July 08, 20:15:09 EDT 2005 Table Table 11367 (6 max) (Real Money) Seat 2 is the button Total number...

Re: Medium PP in LP

I always three bet TT and better against one player (original raiser). If his raise was already called or if there are more limpers before him I would three bet only QQ or better, rare JJ. As for smaller pairs against the single raiser I play both ways - I may three bet with any pocket pair, even with...

Re: new record - 3 players go on tilt after this hand!!

In an ironic twist of events, I was playing some 6-12 and got called all the way after I flopped a King to my wired kings against pocket Aces and a Q,J calling all the way. The play of the hand was much different as the chaser was calling 3 bets and had to hit runner, runner. Some days you are the big...

new record - 3 players go on tilt after this hand!!

The other night I was playing some 3-6 waiting for a satellite to fill up. I had been there about 45 minutes and was +60 already. Family pots are a wonderful thing. Onward, poker soldiers. I'm in the BB and I am dealt EP player, I'll call him the table pro, raises to $6. Table pro was young,...

Re: Funny game last night...

I tried that tonight, problem was, I never got the goods. I caught one flush, and got beat by not one, but two full houses. It looked like a condo project moving in on me, lol. I moved to a 4-6 kill game, that was pretty busy, lots of big pots. I think I won one...I almost wanted to stay, because I knew...

The worst play I seen

$5/10 holdem. 6-handed. UTG limps in. All fold to SB. SB raises. BB folds, UTG calls. Flop SB bets, UTG calls. Turn SB checks, UTG checks River : SB bets, UTG raises, SB three bets, UTG caps. Showdown, UTG: - three Aces SB: - straight Russian Mike. Bad bet is better than good call.

Re: Hand simulation: 88 in MP....

[quote="Jon"] i have laid down queens in that kind of situation. Well not exactly, I was in LP, and had nothing committed, and was sure it was one had kings and one aces. [/quote] Wow! You can lay down some big hands. I am not half that good to be able to lay down Q's in limit holdem'...

Re: Hand simulation: 88 in MP....

Still though, shouldn't I put that guy on Aces/Kings??? Good point though Playa, that guy could have easily held 10-Js and just wanted to cap it... I do the same thing all the time. *shrug* That one cost me a nice pot!
