Default Re: Why Oh why?: Or Lost My Nerve

Actually, the Asian guy didn't raise MP's raise on the turn. One MP had AK and I didn't see the other guy's cards.

I guess I'm just disappointed with myself for not being decisive at a moment I needed to be. I was the button and had been representing a big pair, which I had, just not the right big pair. I wasn't hoping to spike a Q, I was hoping to scare people out by looking like I had Ks full. As Brian and Bob T. pointed out, the Ag might not have folded but if I'd been bold he might have, possibly convincing the others to follow suit.

I've had some luck with this kind of bold play in the past. I only do it occasionally. Isn't this what poker's all about?
