Default Running counter to type (A fish outplays me, rubs it in....)

Villain is 82/2/.7, I've been running him over for a while. A few hands previously, I was able to value bet the river with Q high and get paid off (ok, I was bluffing with the best hand, who knew....)

Button is 52/1.5/.5, so I felt ok completing preflop.

PokerStars 2/4 Hold'em (5 handed) converter

Preflop: Hero is SB with Q[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img], 9[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img].
<font color="#666666">1 fold</font>, MP calls, <font color="#666666">1 fold</font>, Hero completes, BB checks.

Flop: (3 SB) T[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img], Q[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img], 3[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(3 players)</font>
<font color="#CC3333">Hero bets</font>, <font color="#CC3333">BB raises</font>, MP folds, Hero calls.

Turn: (3.50 BB) 7[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(2 players)</font>
Hero checks, <font color="#CC3333">BB bets</font>, Hero folds.

Final Pot: 4.50 BB

And this is where we see that PT only goes so far.

Naphand will be by shortly to rub it in.

Sometimes you have to think like a fish to catch a fish!!!

I ran into one last night on a 2-4 table. After he caught his gut-shot straight on the river (beating my set of 9s)he commented "ha-ha-ha." That win brought him up to $120, but, 20 minutes later, he busted. Despite my best efforts to get him to reload, he left the table.

Ever seen a fish type "ty" when he takes down a big pot from you on the river? At the top of my head I can't think of anything that puts me closer to tilt...

Anytime someone bets out on a suited flop like that, I pretty much assume they are bluffing. Good play on his part, post-flop (by accident, probably).

Of course, showing you his hand was kinda stupid on his part. I'll never understand why fishy bluffers always show their hands...

I love it when the fish call me an idiot after taking down a monster pot off of me.
