Time to take the pressure off of PokerBabe. So here's one weak-tighted on every street. A 2+2er whose play I respect greatly sweated me on this hand and I imagine he thinks that, although he was gentlemanly enough to not even bring the hand up when we schmoozed a short time later.
I may have the first two rounds worth of action slightly wrong but they're close enough. 40-80 at Commece. Two limpers and then a raise. Small blind folds and I call from the big blind with A-T. Gabe asked to see my hand and I showed him and asked, "Did you see it?" I detected a degree of disgust and dismay and displeasure in his voice when he said he did. Flop comes A-K-3 (rainbow I think). I check, first limper checks, second limper bets, original raiser calls, I call, first limper calls. Still four of us (I think). Turn was blankish, I think an offsuit 6. I check, first limper checks, second limper bets again, original raiser now folds, I call, first limper calls. The two limpers are pretty typical garden variety Commerce loosies. They play lots of hands, usually limping in. First limper is somewhat tricky post-flop, second limper pretty A-B-C and on the cautious side. River is a 7, no flush possible. So board is now A-K-3-6-7. I check and now first limper bets. Second limper shakes his head in dismay and disgust and disapproval, tsks a few times, and then, head still shaking, calls. I . . . ? [Bonus hand for fun--no content: The other 2+2er and I had agreed, as is our wont, to have a drink and after I racked up I went to get him. He was involved in a pot from his big blind and when I got there on the turn the board was A-9-5-5 and he had bet, been called, and then raised. He hesitated, considered, and finally mucked. The other guy called. We were headed to the bar and he turned around to see the river: . . . an Ace. He turned to me and, in finest 2+2 analysis, exclaimed, "Sh*t!"] |
