Wow. Something about that hands just smells bad. I'd keep an eye on those two.

There was an overcard and a pair on the board. I don't see how you could possibly call that raise unless you knew the raiser was a nutcase. However, I think you should have bet more on the flop. Given the size of that pot, $3 is a pretty weak bet.

Hand histories suck....what happened?

I don't have time to decipher it.

Peace,

Yeah, unfortunately, you need to go into mommy's closet and get one of her best dresses. If I read that all right, and I think I did, you threw in your hand after betting the turn 4c because a player raised you $5 all in and you had someone behind you still to act.

I would have reraised. It's only going to cost you $5 to call the all in. Likely, this cat was going to call but then figured since the guy in front of him also called your bet, then he might as well get his last $5 in now when he's most likely to get you both to call, hoping maybe you'll bet out on the river and force the other guy to fold giving him the best chance to win. When you folded, the guy behind him realized it wasn't going to cost him any more bets to see the river and showdown since you were already out of the hand.

A reraise here will likely put out the last guy to act, putting you heads up with All In for $5. If they both called your turn bet, then you'd likely bet out on the river anyway, which would cost you $6.

I thought of replying that if you're sitting at greedyswede's table, you maybe could use some improvement in table selection. Then I realized from the hand history that you probably already knew that greedyswede is a 2+2'er. [img]/images/graemlins/laugh.gif[/img]

If the turn raiser weren't all-in, it might be a good fold. You're looking at $12 to call him down, and the K is pretty scary.

I wouldn't see it in the heat of battle, but reraising the turn appears correct. You have every reason to believe that you are ahead of the calling station in the middle.

This is a bizarre hand, but I'm not too suspcious. I'm inclined to think that the all-in player planned to call the river anyway and let it all ride on the last card.

They both played the same hand against a UTG raiser, and continued to offer 2:1 on all bets with nothing. If this is collusion, I'd like to see more of it in my game.

I made a mistake. I thought this was a no limit game (wrong forum). I didn't realize that was just one more bet he put in. I was thinking that the hero could be facing yet another all-in behind him. Still, I don't often see two Ace-highs showing down after bets like that.

Seems like a pretty weak fold to me.

The pot is pretty big.

The king is scary and the all-in guy was the other preflop raiser.
The 4 bugs me but I can't be too worried about 4s can I.

I don't think I would have had the courage to 3 bet the turn, but I think I'd would have had to call it down.

I think the second Ace high called because the Hero folded. It was $5 to him to call, knowing he couldn't get raised on the river. Pot odds would definately say call for the card and the show down, I would think.
