"i had a feeling..."

10 person $20 tournament. We're down to 3 players. Top 2 pays.
Button=2500
Me(SB)=2900
BB=4500

Blinds 100/200

Button limps, I complete, BB raises 300 to 500. Button folds, I call with J9o. BB is a cowboy, will raise with anything but very difficult to put on a hand.

I catch the miracle flop, 8cQs10c. I check, he bets 300. I raise to 600. I can see the manic look in his eyes now he's going to try to push me off the hand. With his reraise, I put him on AQ or KQ based on previous play. He raises another 500, I push all-in for 1500 more. I turn over the straight as he flips over.. 2c6c???

Wow. Naturally when the club hit on the river, he says, "I had a feeling about that one..."

In order to help myself from going on tilt before playing again, I slunk over to the corner where I wept quietly.

I call with J9o.

Why on earth would you do that?

Yes but so did he. If you correctly put someone on rags you cant call if you to have rags. You can reraise in some situations but not flat call.

i had raised the previous three hands...with these players at this level i like my ability to make correct decisions after seeing the flop. like raising, then re-reraising...heh.
