I'm playing against my somewhat intelligent friend...
$.1-$.2 blinds, PLO-8
I have $10.60, he has me covered.
In the BB I'm dealt K /images/graemlins/club.gif J /images/graemlins/club.gif 4 /images/graemlins/diamond.gif 3
SB completes
I raise $.40 (pot)
SB calls
Flop: 3 /images/graemlins/heart.gif K /images/graemlins/heart.gif Q /images/graemlins/spade.gif
I bet $1.20 (pot)
SB says, "I repot," and raises $3.60
I reraise all in for $5.20 more
SB contemplates..."Do I have to show my hand if I call and lose?"
I say, "No."
SB says, "I'm behind," and calls.
I turn my cards face up and SB declines to do so.
Turn: T /images/graemlins/spade.gif
River: 2 /images/graemlins/spade.gif
Sb shows: J /images/graemlins/diamond.gif 8 /images/graemlins/spade.gif 4 /images/graemlins/club.gif 3 /images/graemlins/spade.gif for the runner-runner flush (note that there was no card on the turn that would've given SB the lead).
He claims that since it was a freezout and he had over 3x my stack he should call in some -EV situations because he could either suck out and win, forcing a new freezout to start, or lose and still have the chip lead then go back to playing correctly without giving up EV in relation to time.
Any and ALL responses very welcome. Thanks.
