Default How do you know when you\'re playing too late? (low content)

When you raise all-in on a river bluff only to realize you have a straight. Goodnight.

When you buy into a step 4 and raise all in every hand.

When someone buys into your step 4, goes all in every hand and you call with jacks.

When you're down to five in a Step 4, you're the second biggest stack, the chipleader makes a 3xxBB bet in front of you and you go allin w/JJ....Good news was that the chipleader was a pro and posted "I'm laying down my AA because I can't afford to go broke to some stupid suckout" (PS: I believe that he had AA and was trying to break the chip dog)

When you (1) find yourself breaking your vow of silence at the table, going soft with some consoling words to the runner up who you just beat headsup... (2) only to be surprised by the 2nd place splash on the screen. After all straights typically beats TP's. Two in one blow, time to go to bed.

Skipperbob, did you post this hand? If not, would have loved to see it.

Sorry, I didn't keep it; b-t-w the laydown was the correct thing to do in the circumstances....Not saying my allin was right (it was really stupid), but once I did, then the AA laydown was the right thing to do....Good Lesson
