Here's a PP 1-2 hand that I played the flop poorly, won, and had the benefit of putting one loudmouth on tilt (he proceded to lose $58 before leaving... presumably broke).
I'm in the BB with Q/forums/images/icons/spade.gif J/forums/images/icons/spade.gif. EP, MP, LP (loudmouth), button, SB, and I call. 6 to the flop:
[5/forums/images/icons/club.gif A/forums/images/icons/heart.gif T/forums/images/icons/heart.gif]
Checked to LP, who bets. UTG, SB, and I call (EP & MP fold). I know this was a bad call. I was getting 8.5 to 1 on my call, which is not enough for an inside straight (no backdoor flush). No excuses. 4 to the turn:
[5/forums/images/icons/club.gif A/forums/images/icons/heart.gif T/forums/images/icons/heart.gif] 9/forums/images/icons/club.gif
Checked to LP, who bets. Button calls, SB raises, I call 2 bets (getting 8 to 1 on my 6-out open-ender - there are 2 flush draws), others call. 4 to the river:
[5/forums/images/icons/club.gif A/forums/images/icons/heart.gif T/forums/images/icons/heart.gif 9/forums/images/icons/club.gif] 8/forums/images/icons/diamond.gif
SB bets, I raise, LP calls, button folds, SB calls.
My nut is good. LP (loudmouth) had TT and went balistic. I sat quietly through this, but 3 hands later he was still commenting on my stupid play. I typed this:
Floorman? Please bring my friend over there a box of tissues.
Yes, set it right next to [his name].
Thanks.
This set him off even worse. Now I normally wouldn't do this (is this angling?), but I was sick of listening and thought I was justified. We verbally jousted a bit afterward, but he wasn't very good at it. As I said in the first paragraph, he stuck around for a while and dropped a decent amount.
Thoughts?
