20-40 game. Not terrible, but certianly worse than it usually is. Four
players that I consider very good, two that are pretty good, two that are
pretty bad but not horrific, one that is absolutleyhorrificsobaditmakesmeilltomystomach (AHSBIMMITMS), and me.
UTG (Pretty good) limps, two more limp, AHSBIMMITMS raises in the CO, small blind folds, I call in the big blind with A8s of spades. All limpers call.
Flop is Qs4x4x. Checked to the limper right before AHSBIMMITMS who bets. This limper is pretty good, but likes to bet a wide range of hands into any pot. Also he probably would checkraise the flop, even from this position, with a Q, and would almost certianly slowplay a 4. I tentitively put him on a small/medium pocket pair. AHSBIMMITMS calls. This pretty much means nothing, as he sees pretty much every hand to the river. What it likely means is that 1. he does not have an ace in his hand and 2. he does not have a pair in his hand. I call, the other limpers fold.
The turn is the Ts. I check, the limper bets again, and AHSBIMMITMS calls again (about 10 chips short of all-in), and I raise. The agressive limper bullet-folds and taps the table once in recognition. AHSBIMMITMS calls.
River is the 3c. I check.
