I am posting my hand here simply because misreading my hand cost me here. I guess it happens to everyone, probably more often in the casino than online. Usually because I try and lift my hole cards so now one else can see them. Please share similar stories. I thought my A /images/graemlins/heart.gif was an A /images/graemlins/spade.gif
I am sitting at 10/20 at casinorama. UTG+1 is a LAG (raises QTs UTg, he checkraises the river on a bluff, etc.), he is an older man who's English isn't very good. Most people sit at 10/20 with $400 this old man has a small stack but in it is a $1000 chip and a $5000 chip. MP3 is a younger guy who is getting really angry with UTG+1, Mp3 is a big talker and is saying that I shouldn't try to figure him out because I will just end up crazy, BB is a tighter player, UTG is kind of fishy
Preflop: Hero is SB with A /images/graemlins/heart.gif K /images/graemlins/club.gif
UTG calls, <font color="red">UTG+1 raises</font>, 2 folds, MP3 calls, 1 folds, Button calls,<font color="red">Hero 3 bets </font>, BB calls, UTG calls,<font color="red">UTG+1 caps </font>, MP3 calls, Button calls, Hero calls, BB calls, UTG calls.
Flop: Q /images/graemlins/diamond.gif 5 /images/graemlins/spade.gif 7 /images/graemlins/spade.gif<font color="blue">6 players </font>
<font color="red">Hero bets</font>
BB folds, UTG calls, <font color="red">UTG+1 raises</font>
MP3 calls, Button folds, Hero calls.
Turn: 3 /images/graemlins/spade.gif <font color="blue">4 players </font>
Hero checks, UTG checks, <font color="red">UTG+1 bets</font>, Mp3 folds, Hero calls, UTG folds
I thought I need 1 /images/graemlins/spade.gif to give me the nut flush.
River: K /images/graemlins/diamond.gif <font color="blue">2 players</font>
Hero checks, <font color="red">UTG+1 bets</font>, <font color="red"> Hero raises </font>, <font color="red">UTG+1 re-raises </font> hero calls.
I thought that UTG+1 was probably holding Kx and that my K was good. When I had to turn my hand over I was shocked to realize that I had no spades. A few players said they thought I was on a flush draw. I felt stupid, anyone have any similar experience. Thank god that another spade didn't fall or it would have gotten ugly. Fortunately UTG+1 had no spades either, I thought my AK was good on the end, so I raised. I know some ppl would say that I should just check call there. The moral of the story, make sure you know what you are holding.
Comments welcome
