Re: The art of the big laydown.
[ QUOTE ]
Dear droolie, FYI, Your passive opponent who would never raise without the nuts just raised without the nuts despite an open-ended straight draw getting there on the river. In light of this, you should not be folding to his raise in this huge pot. Reading him for AA when passed up on two opportunities to raise preflop is crazy. Bad fold. -Eric [/ QUOTE ] And I thought this thread was dying.... You're right that he did not have the nuts but he's a bad player. He didn't see the 35 str8 until it was too late. He must have thought, "Oh boy I have the nuts on the river I can't lose!" and pressed raise. What I didn't show in the results was that the maniac button indeed had 35o and scooped the pot from our hapless MP2! MP2 typed in the chat box shortly thereafter "Oh crap I thought I had the nuts!" I think he went off and kicked the crap out of his cat. I typed "Ni han" in the chat box and beat off to Alizee. I didn't include that because I would have never given maniac credit for 35 and my BIG LAYDOWN was based on the raise by MP2 alone. You still think this was a bad fold?

Meh. Personally I thought this one was pretty see-through, but you got a lot of biters, so nice job. [/ QUOTE ] I don't get it. Doesn't there have to be something funny about the April fool's joke? Maybe I'm not up on my poker humor. It seems to me that constructing a plausible post and getting reasonable answers is not hard, especially when you're posting in a microlimit forum where lots of posters are presumably newbies. Here's one for you: I raise UTG KJs. Button 3-bets. We get heads up. Flop: QsTs8c. I check and just call. Turn: 9s. I check. He checks. Damn. River: 8d. I bet, he calls, MHIG. How'd I play it? Oh yeah, April fool's. I'd never checck call this flop. This hand never happened. Suckers! Yeah. Not funny. Eric

Re: The art of the big laydown.
I noticed in the hand history on the river it says "MP2 re-raises" instead of what it normally says, "MP2 3-bets". [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]
