Wildest HU Ride for me EVER...includes a villain fold 9:1 pot odds PF
I've had some wild rides before...but this one is up there for sure....maybe the wildest ride / strangest HU I've ever played....There are other hands of note than the ones I posted...but I posted the best ones.
...Started as a big dog...built back up...HAD SOO MANY chips....and then this hand: ============ PokerStars No-Limit Hold'em Tourney, Big Blind is t600 (2 handed) converter Hero (t10030) Button (t4970) Preflop: Hero is BB with 3[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img], J[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]. Button calls t300, Hero checks. Flop: (t950) Q[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img], 2[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img], 5[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(2 players)</font> <font color="#CC3333">Hero bets t1000</font>, Button calls t1000. Turn: (t2950) 5[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(2 players)</font> Hero checks, Button checks. River: (t2950) J[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(2 players)</font> <font color="#CC3333">Hero bets t1320</font>, <font color="#CC3333">Button raises to t3320</font>, Hero calls t2000. Final Pot: t9590 Results in white below: <font color="#FFFFFF"> Hero has 3h Jh (flush, queen high). Button has 5c 5d (four of a kind, fives). Outcome: Button wins t9590. </font> =========== That hand would be a little sick at a full table...but HU?!? Damn! The hand after that I pick up JJ and end up losing to bottom two pair. I'm too ashamed of the hand to post it. Why do I insist on slowplaying big pairs HU?!? The next hand the absolute best part: ========= PokerStars No-Limit Hold'em Tourney, Big Blind is t600 (2 handed) converter Hero (t810) <=== 210 more than the big blind. Button (t14190) Preflop: Hero is BB with T[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img], 2[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img]. Button calls t300, <font color="#CC3333">Hero raises to t810</font> <===810 all day, 210 more than the BB, Button folds. Final Pot: t1160 No showdown. Hero wins t1160. </font> ======== WTF? Now I'm lowstack and pushing EVERY hand 'cuz a) I'm lowstack b) Dude folds too much c) Its all-in or fold and dude folds too much He folded that hand and the next FOUR hands until this one: ======== PokerStars No-Limit Hold'em Tourney, Big Blind is t800 (2 handed) converter Hero (t2760) BB (t12240) Preflop: Hero is Button with 5[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img], 6[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]. <font color="#CC3333">Hero raises to t2710</font>, BB calls t1910. Flop: (t4670) 9[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img], A[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img], 3[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(2 players)</font> Turn: (t4670) 4[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(2 players)</font> River: (t4670) 2[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(2 players)</font> Final Pot: t4670 Hero has 5s 6h (straight, six high). BB has Kh 5h (straight, five high). Outcome: Hero wins t4670. </font> ============= He had me dominated pre-flop, picks up the uber-dominating flush draw too boot...I get a decent turn card, but the river SERIOUSLY gives HIM a straight TOO? That sucks (for him.) ============ Dude folded too much and usually bluffed when he did bet. ========= PokerStars No-Limit Hold'em Tourney, Big Blind is t800 (2 handed) converter Hero (t6370) BB (t8630) Preflop: Hero is Button with 4[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img], 5[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img]. Hero calls t400, BB checks. Flop: (t1250) 4[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img], 6[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img], T[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(2 players)</font> <font color="#CC3333">BB bets t800</font>, Hero calls t800. Turn: (t2850) 4[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(2 players)</font> <font color="#CC3333">BB bets t800</font>, Hero calls t800. River: (t4450) A[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(2 players)</font> <font color="#CC3333">BB bets t1600</font>, <font color="#CC3333">Hero raises to t3920</font>, BB folds. Final Pot: t9970 Hero has 4h 5s (three of a kind, fours). Outcome: Hero wins t9970. </font> ========== FWIW, I didn't hit a lucky turn. I had the best hand on the flop too...but wouldn't he call with most legitimate hands HU on the river? After him folding his button nearly every time - or folding to my raise on my button nearly every time for a dozen or so hands...Dude is getting low... And I pick up...Queens in the Big Blind. Doesn't matter though...he'll fold as always, right? =========== PokerStars No-Limit Hold'em Tourney, Big Blind is t1200 (2 handed) converter Hero (t12045) Button (t2955) Preflop: Hero is BB with Q[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img], Q[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]. <font color="#CC3333">Button raises to t2880</font> Did he seriously push at me for like the second time HU when I have Queens? Hero calls t1680. Flop: (t4635) 6[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img], J[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img], A[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(2 players)</font> Turn: (t4635) K[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(2 players)</font> River: (t4635) 3[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(2 players)</font> Final Pot: t4635 Hero has Qs Qh (one pair, queens). Button has 8c Tc (high card, ace). Outcome: Hero wins t4635. </font> ========= The way this thing was going and the outs he picked up, I expected to lose it on the river.
