Some dude just limp reraised me with 52o. I had QQ. Every street was capped until the river where he was all in. He hit trip 5's on the river and won a huge pot...

This made me feel marginally better about every bad beat I've suffered this week. Way to take one for the team!

Re: WOW QJs Hand
 

With a gut-shot, two-overs and a backdoor flush draw his hand is stronger than it might seem. The pot's big, so raising the flop is the right play because it can potentially clean up those over-card outs, and maybe fold a hand like A8, etc.

If the flop raise gets KJ to fold, and we river a Jack to win the pot, we party hardy.

They keep losing their buyin. And coming back again, and again, and again.

Correct again sir.

Well he didn't play it that badly then. The preflop call in a loose passive game is fine imo.

He didn't know you had the higher straight and he was one-card open ended on the flop with an overcard and BD flush draw.

Not in UTG+1.

Re: WOW QJs Hand
 

Other callers had 88 for a set and 7x for the turned straight.

I hope you see why my hand is so strong on the flop. A Ten gives anyone holding a seven a straight, but it gives me the nuts.
