Dear IHateCats,

You wanna know what I think about people who hate cats?

They don't know how to cook 'em.


As to the hand, maybe he knew he had a black ace but didn't know which one?

Or maybe he knew what he had and he simply played it great. Looks to me like he won the max.


Tommy

So you're telling me that your line here with AK no spade is to bet the flop and call a raise and then check/call the turn? What's your line for a blank river? I assume you are also betting 300 on the river here since you said he played it well? If she doesn't have a big spade then she must have had you beat badly on the turn. If she doesn't have you beat badly on the turn, then she must have a big spade and you should check/fold the river. No?

flawless never claimed that this was his preferred line

his point was he didn't play the hand all that bad.. and it certainly isn't worthy of the 'omg kill the fish' type responses

The OP was asking for 'omg kill the fish' type responses. In my book when a woman asks for those responses, that makes it worthy of them. [img]/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img]

A lot of those live guys suck at cards but they're good at reading people.

Maybe he watched your reaction as the river card came, correctly decided that you were disgusted, and so he bet out strong.

well ok you guys have convinced me there could definitely be logic to his play, and that was the purpose of the thread, so thanks. this guy, however, sucked. also i think he might have been drawing without odds just to bluff... who knows.

I don't see how this play is so incomprehensible or bad. All these people saying saying it's an idiot play or "people just make bad plays" or whatever should try and explain their reasoning. It looks to me like he check/called the turn thinking maybe he had the best hand, maybe not. Then he figures that spade is a good card to bet because he actually has a chance of folding a hand better than his.
