UB last night $1/2 Kill game. stakes doubled to 2/4
I get dealt AhKc in MP. I raise, other MP calls, button reraises, I reraise, call, button calls.
Flop comes: Ac 7d 6s
Im liking this flop. I come betting, MP calls, button raises me, I reraise, call , call,
Turn: As
I bet, MP calls, button raises, I reraise, Call, call
River is 2s giving the board three spades, which didnt concern me that much, didnt think theyd be playing with draws.
I bet, MP calls, button raises, I call, MP calls,
Button turns over AdKh, same as me.
MP turns over 3s, 5s for the Flush,,,,,.

I was shocked to say the least. I asked him how could he play 35s preflop with max bet????
He said "I saw a potential big pot so I decided to play".
I could understand if there wer 4 or more players in the pot, but with just 2 others, betting the max, He doesnt have the odds to play this...

I was shocked!!!!!!!!!!!! But it felt good knowing he left the table with $0. Wish I was the one that took his chips at the end.

He'll lay beats on you when you are running bad, but that's the player you want at your table! You have to be careful though, because sometimes a good player will play something like 56s out of position early in a session as advertising, though probably not in a capped pot!

WHERE THE HECK HAVE YOU BEEN, ON SOME OTHER PLANET
YOU ARE TALKING ABOUT ONE, TWO HOLD EM, THE LOOSEST
GAME IN THE HISTORY OF THE WORLD.

EVERYONE PLAYS PRETTY MUCH EVERY HAND, AND A SUITED
HAND IS CONSIDERED AS VALUABLE AS GOLD.

YOU ARE, INDEED VERY FUNNY, EXPECTING PLAYERS AT THIS

LEVEL TO HAVE ANY REGARD FOR WHAT THEY'RE STARTING
CARDS ARE.

THEY COULD BE BLANK!!!!! AND STILL THEY WILL CALL, HOPING
TO PLAY THE BOARD.

IF YOU DON'T WANT PEOPLE TO CALL, I'D SUGGEST FINDING
A (REAL) NO LIMIT GAME, NOT THE KIND THEY HAVE ON THE
INTERNET

IN FIFTEEN YEARS OF PLAYING NO LIMIT HOLD EM, (NOT ALL
THE TIME, OBVIOUSLY) I HAVE LOGGED 27 PAIRS OF POCKET
ACES, AND HAVE LOST ON ZERO (O) OF THEM!!!

HAVE NOT WON ANY MONEY ON THEM, EXCEPT FOR ONE TIME,
BUT AT LEAST THEY DIDN'T LOSE!!

NOT REALLY THE WAY TO PLAY THEM, BUT IT'S THE WAY I PLAY
THEM. NO ONE SEES THE FLOP, FOR LESS THAN ALL THE CHIPS
I HAVE, WHEN I HAVE ACES.

SO, I YOU DON'T WANT TO HAVE ANYONE DRAW OUT, AND ALSO
DON'T WANT TO MAKE ANY MONEY, FIND YOURSELF A NICE

TIGHT NO LIMIT GAME, BUY IN FOR A HUGE AMOUNT, WAIT FOR
ACES, AND SHOVE IN ALL YOUR CHIPS.

YOU WON'T WIN, BUT THERE WILL BE NO DRAW OUTS, UNLESS
SOMEONE ELSE HAS ACES, AND MAKES A FLUSH

What an odd statement to make. While I am pretty sure that most of the people here can assume what "you are actually saying", there may be some who don't. - Nathaniel Brous
