Default 80-160 hand

The whole table started referring to me as 'lunatic' after this one.

I am in the sb with 66. Four limpers, and I raise btf. All call and I check dark [img]/forums/images/icons/tongue.gif[/img] Flop is T77, with two diamonds. lp bets, button raises, I 3-bet, all fold to lp who (inadvertantley) flashes a T when folding. Button reraises, and I call.

Turn is 4d, putting three diamonds on the board. I check and call. River is the 9d, I bet (with the 6d in my hand), and the button becomes very angry and slams his chips into the pot to call. Of course, my hand is good [img]/forums/images/icons/wink.gif[/img]

Totally awesome! nice hand. The button deserves that suckout since he didn't raise before the flop.

BTW - great handle.

Default Negative EV?

Snakehead,

Isn't every single dollar that you put into the pot until the turn negative EV? If so, why do you play like this?

Because it is fun, particularly taking down a good sized pot when you are waaaaay behind, making a one-card six-high flush. Power to you. [img]/forums/images/icons/grin.gif[/img]
