Hand I Played Tonight 15-30, HOSH, 1. Oct 2002 03:33
    View ( Message | Thread )       Return to Thread List
I held KQ off two off the button. The game had a loose texture with 4 callers in front of me. So I decided to just call and see if I can make a big enough hand to take a pot down against many players. The button and small blind all call. Now we 8 of us rock and roll to the flop which comes down Qc Th 9h. All check to me and I bet only to be reraised by the small blind. With this many callers in he could have anything. Two other players call in between him and me. On the turn comes Jh. He bets one player calls and I decide to reraise the hand. On the river the first player checks and the second player checks. I thought the second player may have had a small flush. But my mistake was that he had hesitated to think on the turn. I believe i should have bet the river. By the way opponent one turned over tt and the 2nd opponent turned over Missing two big bets. Yuk!! Who says I am perfect. Any comments please. Play well and have fun. Hosh.

Hi hosh

I think you answered your own question correctly! You missed two bets! (Maybe only one :-)

Roy: what about raising preflop if the game is loose.
1.maybe get button.
3.get real rags to fold.
Wasn't the confusion caused *(and missed bets) by lack of information.
Of course I play toooooo aggressively
but that is a horse of a ...
TY and stay safe
