Worst hand I played in a while (vs. Flair)
 

So, Flair is villan in this hand, I know who he is but he has zero idea who I am, for sure.

I'd been on a super hot run of cards I didn't showdown so he may have been sick of me bulying *his* table, but, he's also 3 betting from the SB which is usu a big hand. Anyways, I sort of hated this when it went down but I'm curious to hear what you come up with:

I don't know about the river call, but his hand sure smells like TT.

Re: Worst hand I played in a while (vs. Flair)
 

Yeah, the river call is the worst of it for sure. What do you think about the turn? I think I prob should have raised there....

Re: Worst hand I played in a while (vs. Flair)
 

I've played hands much worse than that.

I think the hand is fine up until the river though I can see an argument for raising the flop. On the river I would have raised also and reluctantly called the 3-bet. But maybe someone will chime in with you shouldn't raise the river unless you can fold to the 3-bet.

I'd find a raise before the river. I might cap preflop.

Re: Worst hand I played in a while (vs. Flair)
 

Either the turn or the flop. I'm not sure which one, but one of them.

I was going to apologise.

For the record,

1. I was sick of having my blind raised.
2. I did feel like he was being a bully.
3. I did not know it was Brett; but it was obvious to me he was a thinking TAG. Meaning, I figured he was not just a player with the "right stats".

4. I can't wait for all you guys to get RB on Party Poker and just leave me alone. (While this hand was going on, I put an very sick beat on "Doc Martin" over on Absolute... I am suprised he has not posted that one yet.)

EDIT: As a side note before I hit the raise button pre-flop, I stood up and took of my sunglasses and said "It is time to put a stop to this."

I think I prefer the turn. I like taking down this somewhat vulnerable hand here.

HAHAHAH. I love it.

BTW. Looks like 1010, but given that it is a blind defense from a TAG I would think his 3bet range is rather large including K10, and A10 (which he decided to press postflop). Heck, maybe Q10s?

Eh, I don't get too frisky about my small blind.

Believe it or not, I had my values every time. Just a good run of cards is all. I did think to myself, [censored], I haven't shown down anything. I just didn't thinkk you'd get so bitchy about your small blind.
