Default Re: this could\'ve gotten ugly (live 5-5 NL)

Hey Ocho,

A flop bet is good here. On the turn, it's tough to comment on your play without more detail on what kind of "soft spot" MP was and what you put him on when you call. But, if I had to guess, I'd say that check-calling was probably correct. On the river, if this is the type of dude to check his non-diamond hands, then checking is good. Against a decent (but not great)player, this isn't a bad spot to put in a bet.

I can't for the life of me figure out what he had that would have made him act as if I'd laid a bad beat on him. Being a poor player, I figured he'd at least have shown a worse ten than mine looking for the "pity nods" from the rest of the table.

Easy. AA or AK. But, I think that he might have had a ten and just not gone for the pity...

Nice hand.

Mike
