Now I've only been playing poker for not even a year, but this is the most bizarre hand I've seen yet.
$6/$12 at Canterbury Park tonight. The players:
BB: poor player preflop - will play anything he would have played before for 2 bets, plays ace-rag, etc. Very aggressive, very frequent bluffer - seems to play decently post flop and make good reads. I don't think he quite understands the game, though. He naturally has been running over the table.
Button in seat one: don't know this guy, and has only been at the table for 1 orbit. Seems solidish.
The hand:
3 limpers to the button who limps. I fold my whatever in the SB. BB checks.
Flop: J 8 2 rainbow.
Checked around through 5 players.
Turn: another J completing the rainbow.
Its checked to the button who bets. The BB checkraises. The button immediately 3-bets. The BB calls.
River: Another 8.
The BB checks, the button bets, the BB calls. The button says, "If you can call, I can't win." and tosses his cards in the muck.
The BB shows pocket fours.
And needs to be explained what's so funny.
The button takes a walk.
