Re: I puked a little and folded my full house
you must be kidding if you think that a bet here doesn't show profit.
On card frequency alone it is much more likely that he has A or K high here than a J or T, plus the fact that we haven't been raised yet in the hand seems to indicate that we are ahead. if the idiot is possibly calling down with A or K high, than we are good at least the 67% of the time we need. This is an easy bet, even if we cannot fold to a raise. |

Re: I puked a little and folded my full house
Maybe he had AT and was raising because he had three of a kind in which case your laydown doesnt look so great!!

Three of a kind is impossible holding on that board. This is Texas hold'em forum, not Omaha.

77 isn't a boat here, it's an ace of trump. this is like saying "i puked a little and folded my pocket queens" on an AAKK2 board.

That river card would certainly have made me sick to my stomach. I would have gone into check-call mode immediately.

[/ QUOTE ] I was going to respond the same way.. but really his analogy is quite apt. In the 77 case, you start with a very good hand, and end up with one where only 4 cards can beat you, but they're the only 4 cards your opponent is likely to have. In the QQ case... it's exactly the same. Instead of jacks and tens beating you, it's aces and kings.. but still there's only 4 cards out there that can beat you. (Although now also two that can tie..) Of course, technically it *is* still a boat.. but the two cases are quite similar.
