One-on-one against a total fish - Is there a point where I should have just given up and called?

When he checkraises me on the river. You went one bridge too far.

That's what I thought.

The fish isn't check-raising the river with a set or two-pair here, it's time to simmer down.

Bison! Good to see you here! The only time I got to be in a post with you before you took off was here [img]/images/graemlins/blush.gif[/img]

Nice post by the way...you were right. I've learned a lot since then being here, and still so much more to learn. I look forward to reading more of your posts and learning more. I see your location has you at .5/1. Are you starting from scratch and working your BR back up again?

Hmm, I think you've got to cap it all the way. One one hand beats you, the nut flush and he'd to have two cards. I've seen a lot of fish cap out with trips and lower flushes and even just 2-pair.

Given you posted at all, you probably got hosed, but I think the range of hands likely in this situation you're going to win more than 50% of the time so cap it.
