Not a bad beat story. A story about the importance of aggression, with Freerollin' starring as the lead idiot.

NL $100, FTP.

I have $117, covering both villians, who are mediocre.

Lead Donkey: MP2, A /images/graemlins/spade.gifA /images/graemlins/club.gif
Folds to Lead Donkey, raises to $3.75
Both Villains (SB&BB) call

Flop (~$11.25)
3 /images/graemlins/diamond.gif7 /images/graemlins/heart.gif7 /images/graemlins/club.gif
SB bets $5
BB raises to $10

Lead Donkey thinks to himself, "Uh oh, he's got a 7. I'm dead. I better just call."

Lead Donkey calls $10.
SB folds.

Lead Donkey should have said "There's a very tiny chance that either of them have a seven. I need to raise to $50. If they come over the top, I'll get stacked with this hand because I really think that SB has two overcards and BB has an overpair.

Turn: (~$36)

9 /images/graemlins/heart.gif

BB bets $20

Lead Donkey says I'm behind, but I'm calling.

Lead Donkey calls $20.

Lead Donkey should have folded or pushed, but for some reason, he played this hand like a coward.

River:

Q /images/graemlins/club.gif

BB bets $25

Lead Donkey knows he lost, but calls.

Moral of the story: If you want to win, play aggressively. Don't be a donkey.

Yes, indeed. Now that I have it out of my system, though, I look forward to pwning you in the BIFGOP.

Bring it. I am considering putting a $10 bounty on myself and will announce my decision shortly before the tourney starts.

Just transfer it to my account if you decide to go with it. No need to waste time and post a message about it, etc.

*This all assumes that I make it home in time to play...
