I was playing in a NLH cash game this past wednesday when the following happened:
The blinds were .25/.50, and four people limped in. I had KhQh on the big blind and checked. The flop came 4h 5h 6h The small blind checked to me, and I bet one dollar. The person two seats to my left (the short stack) called, and the person to her left folded. Back to the small blind, also the chip leader, who made it $5 to go. Now, at this point, I had determined two things: 1. The short stack had the Ace of hearts, but had not yet made her flush. 2. The small blind had his flush, but I had him beat. With this in mind, I went all in for about 31 dollars. The short stack called, and the small blind went into the tank. After what seemed like an eternity, he called, which had been my plan all along. Sure enough, the short stack turned up the Ace of hearts and a 2c. Then the small blind turned over the 8h 10h. I got excited, since another heart coming would still mean that I would be paid off by the big stack, regardless of what I lost to the short stack, who couldn't even match the five dollar raise. At this point, only one card could win it for the small blind, and off it came: The 7h, on the turn. Funny thing is, I was the first one who noticed it. Now, I'm not a whiz when it comes to the math of the game, but I'm guessing that the odds of him hitting an inside straight flush draw were fairly slim. Although I was in shock, I came to the conclusion that I had played the hand correctly. Can anyone out there confirm or deny this for me? Thanks. |
