Wow, I just have to share this hand.

Sorry, that hand convertor wasn't working for me. It may be difficult to read.

This looks like a Party hand - you need to get the hand history emailed to you for the convertor to work, not use the one automatically saved on your hard drive. The hand you showed does not show your opponents cards as they are dealt, hence hand convertor will not work.

That looks like a great 2/4 table!

[arcticfox]

P.S. I hate your call for 2 bets on 4th, you have 3 to a low against someone who is representing 4 to a 7 low and multiple other high callers. I also think your bet on 6th is dubious with an 8 high low with a potential 7 high low to act behind you. If Tonto had got the ace on the river and you'd got the 4 then I doubt you would have been posting!

Nice river but think you need to dump this on 4th in the long run or it will be a negative EV play for you. BowieBob and p_fortier look like absolute fish though.

[Andy B]

Fourth is a fold when it's two bets back to you. I didn't bother to try to figure out what was going on on fifth street, but 532J8 isn't something I usually get too excited about. Nice hand, though.

[zoidswallet]

I know there are some horrible plays on this hand. Honestly, I vaguely remember it. Check the time of the game. I pulled an all nighter the night before, I think I was going on about 42 hours with no sleep. I was dead tired, but decided to sit for just a little bit. I think I just wanted to gamble, fortunately, I got lucky.

What goes around comes around though. Today I got rolled up queens, made quads on 4th street, betting was capped between me and another guy from 5th street on, he had a straight flush. Ow. He was showing 6710 spades, and I considered it as a possibility, but I was holding the J and Q of spades, so I figured it really was a longshot he had the 89 spades hidden. Well, he did.

And in regards to the hand history, I think I did have it emailed to me, I'll check in a bit, and post in here.

Hey, I can read this. Third is fine. Be very leery of people who limp and re-raise with a Nine in the door. Your opponent is saying one of two things:

1. I am rolled-up.
2. I am a board-certified monkey.

Really, nothing other than (99)9 makes sense, but it wouldn't have surprised me if he had had a big pocket pair or some other hand.

Fourth is a fold when you have to call two bets cold. It looks to me like you had to call about 1.7 big bets on fifth, making that a fold as well. I would check and hope on sixth. Nice river, as they say.
