Default Re: Guy puts a sophisticated play on me in a dry sidepot

I didn't call the flop a no brainer check..

About the turn.. it would be an unbelievable and ridiculous parlay to put the original raiser on exactly a hand such as AK, call, beat the all-in guy, and get a blank river to scoop the whole pot

I was so sure that most of the comments would be.. that was a nice/interesting play by the original raiser.. I never thought that EVERYONE would advocate calling a $180 all in with unimproved JJ on a Q9xQ board into a dry sidepot

I guess that results oriented thinking is truly mind numbingly powerful..

The original raiser actually had QQ for quads. I was sort of dumbfounded by the play he had made. When I saw the other guy's hand my mind began to wonder about the merits of making the same play with hands that are probably beating the all-in donk but may be trailing mine. I thought the correct calculation of the sidepots with a split was a nice touch. Sorry if anyone feels misled.

My intention was not to make anyone look silly.. but this thread got so ridiculous so fast..
