| I want to make sure I was thinking right on this hand. I am head to head in a SnG. Long story short, we get to the river and the board is: Ah Qd Js 10c Kc There is 2000 in the pot. No matter what I have in my hand and the other player has in his hand, we split the pot? There is no possible flush or hand higher then the str8 on the board. I bet 2000. Much to my surprise, he folded. Am I missing something? Or did he. | ||

| lol... I think he missed it. Good bet BTW. I sometimes bet at a split pot to see who is paying attention./ I got chewed out for it in a ring game because we only added to the rake. In a SnG, there is no rake, so sure bet away.. LOL ggg | ||

| Had the same thing happen last night, happens when they select "fold to any bet" or "check/fold" without looking at the board. (I will say that I hit fold once what would have been a split pot, I take more time now to really make sure what the flop is). | ||

| Remember his name and look for him on tables again, especially in the ring games, should be quite profitable :-) Jim | ||

| I always make a maximum raise in that situation, and yes, I occasionally get a player to fold. | ||

| DR- Yeah, he missed it. That's one of the reasons I always like to throw a bet out there in situations like that, especially online. Good bet. :) -Moz "One November spawned a monster in the shape of this child..." | ||
