If I'm ever involved in a pissing contest I like to make pretty sure I win it.

I'm not sure there is much to learn from this hand. I just really wanted to show this off for the pot size -- it's the biggest I ever won. After winning I was on a bit of "reverse tilt" and had to walk away for a minute to regain my A game.

Paradise Poker 0.25/0.50 Hold'em (10 handed)

Preflop: Greg is Button with Q[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img], Q[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img]. MP2 posts a blind of $0.25.
UTG folds, UTG+1 calls, UTG+2 folds, MP1 calls, MP2 (poster) checks, MP3 calls, CO folds, Greg raises, SB folds, BB folds, UTG+1 calls, MP1 calls, MP2 3-bets, MP3 calls, Greg caps, UTG+1 calls, MP1 folds, MP2 calls, MP3 calls.

Flop: (19.40 SB) 2[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img], Q[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img], 7[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] (4 players)
UTG+1 checks, MP2 bets, MP3 calls, Greg raises, UTG+1 calls, MP2 3-bets, MP3 calls, Greg caps, UTG+1 calls, MP2 calls, MP3 calls.

Turn: (17.70 BB) 4[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] (4 players)
UTG+1 checks, MP2 bets, MP3 calls, Greg raises, UTG+1 calls, MP2 3-bets, MP3 calls, Greg caps, UTG+1 calls, MP2 calls, MP3 calls.

River: (33.70 BB) 4[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] (4 players)
UTG+1 checks, MP2 checks, MP3 bets, Greg raises, UTG+1 calls, MP3 3-bets, Greg caps, MP3 calls.

Final Pot: 42 BB

Results in red below: 
UTG+1 has As Ah (two pair, aces and fours).
MP2 doesn't show.
MP3 has Jh 4h (three of a kind, fours).
Greg has Qs Qd (full house, queens full of fours).
Outcome: Greg wins 42 BB. 

WTF is UTG+1 doing??? Seriously! Does anyone have ANY idea what is going on in his head?
And I wonder what MP2 had.

I would guess that MP2 is going to end up showing some high flush draw - but that seems less likely with the Ace of hearts in the hand with rockets. Maybe KK? It seems like an overpair, AQ, or a flush draw are the only logical choices for him.

Nice pot though :P

Thanks. After I capped the turn I closed my eyes and prayed that a heart that did not pair the board would not come -- and it didnt. phew

nice hand.

What happened to MP2 on the river? You might wanna let Bison know. I'm not sure how much he's concerned about hunting down converter bugs.

Greg J · #5 10-03-2004, 06:44 PM

There are a few bugs in the converter, as was the case this hand -- sometimes it drops players but it's always apparent what they do.

good god. That is a lot of action. I agree with the MP2 on flush draw theory, he certainly was gettin the odds. 42BB!??!! Can I borrow a dollar?
