Default Re: Why?????

1) Did you steal blinds a lot?
2) Did you bluff and show?
3) Was the game loose?
4) Were the other players any good?
5) Are you known to be tight/aggressive?




I don't know how your play and that of the blinds was before this hand. But it could be that the SB and BB thought you were stealing from the button and they both called. The fact that you bet it when the Ace hit may have not sent out warning bells in their minds since you probably would have made a bet even without an Ace in your hand since you raise PF.

Once the 7 hits the SB (in his mind) was going to put you to the test by check raising all-in representing the Ace or maybe thinking he might have the best hand.

Be careful about putting too much stock on your image. Even though you are known to be a tight player many players may think you are stealing, bluffing because of your image. Or they may not notice at all that you have been sitting on your hands for the last 20 minutes.
