Check. No Ace is folding anytime soon.

check because you'd hate to get CRed by trip As, and you have like 35% equity vs pairs below A.

Take the free card. Ace isn't going anywhere and a 3[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] would be a kick in the ass (or anything that boats up villain).

I completely agree with you and yvesaint.

Oh, to know the future...

6 bucks. Doubtful someone has a hand to pay you with though.

I'd rather not, but you could make it a little smaller if they super weak.

yvesaint · #7 09-08-2005, 01:45 AM

I bet $5, pray someone has AA so I can scoop a big pot and get the bad beat jackpot while I'm at it.

Reasonable bets be damned!

Final Pot: $28.75

Results:
UTG+2 has 8s 6s (flush, ace high).
Hero has Qs Ks (straight flush, ace high).
Outcome: Hero wins $28.75.

I hoped the overbet would look like a steal, and it must have. Oh well, it's nicer to stack, but this'll do.

I remember seeing a thread somewhere of someone talking about Party sending them a hat or something for hitting a royal.. I think I may give that a try.
