Well, I think raising with a non-nut flush with one pair on the board would be more idiotic than with two pair, if we are to judge levels of idiocy.

Yeah, that's true. There is no bound on the level of idiocy some of these fcukers exhibit.

I'm almost 100% sold that the fold is correct. But something's still nagging at me, because I had such a strong read and it was right. Given the general stupidity of the average $200 level opponent (excluding known intelligent players), and counting the number of hands that can play this hand as these opponents did and beat me, are you sure that the fold is correct? I'm pretty sure the only hand I lose to there is 98, unless the guy is a total, utter retard and played 28 or 22 very strangely.

Well, your read can change the decision, of course. From now on, you know how jmborden plays non-nut flush draws on paired two-to-low boards.

I think raising as he did is more retarded than playing 22 or 88 this way. Not that I suggest playing those hands that way.

Yes, but you also like to tuck your t-shirt into your underpants to give yourself a little boost of confidence.

While the first instict is usually correct there are times when regardless of the read you just cant call because of logic, I mean if you miss a draw you might think you have the best hand with ace high and sometimes you might ive seen it happen, but you cant call someone that moves in because its just not correct logic wise. Sometimes logic is more important than instict, not often for me cause I am more of a instict type of player rather than numbers and im sure you are too as most short handed players have to be that way, but sometimes logic has to be listened to. Remember players without logic are called fish because they call big raises with crap hands because they think they will hit something and cant reason that they have no odds.

You keep that up, Dresses Like A Girl, and I'll be posting some of those hands I bluffed you out of.

And seriously, you don't do the underwear thing? I always get the girls that way.
