My best hand ever played

AceHiStation · #1 11-23-2005, 08:27 PM

Watching the cheesy but kinda interesting WSOP "best hand I ever played" got me thinking. I thought Lederer's slowplayed 33 into Chan was a pretty cool one. Anyways, I've decided to post a hand I thought was one of my best, simply because my read was spot-on basically down to the exact cards. I thought it'd be kind of cool to see what kind of hands people would post, so let it begin...

Villain in this hand was very aggressive postflop, and I had seen him reraising his draws pretty big in the past. I put villain on the nut draw but was obviously unsure of his kicker. The way he continued betting, I felt I would get all my money in on any non-A and non-spade but I didn't want to go all-in and force him to fold the worst hand. Enjoy...

I knew someone would say checkraise turn... but I didn't want to scare off a total bluff. And noone else cares to post their best hand?

Mine is from 10/20nl this weekend. 4 handed I raised button with ato bb reraises me, good player has been pushing me around as I haven't had much in terms of cards. K72 rainbow flop. He bets 2/3 I call. Turn is blank check check. River he bets 900 leaving himself 700, I shove Ace high he folds.

OK - I'll give it a shot. This is from memory. The best hand I ever played...

In his first hand of the night, I bluffed villain out of a huge pot with A-9, after he had raised preflop. He proceeded to berate me for the next two hours. Every hand I played. I was loving it. He was creating action for me, and I was sitting nice and patient for a chance to set him up.

The game is 5-10. Effective stacks are 3.5k. Villain is MP, Hero is the Button.

Villain open raises for $40 (Standard). Two people call. I call on the button with 5-7o.

Flop is Kd Qd 6s. - Checks around.

Turn is 8c - Villan bets $150. All fold. Hero calls.

River is 4s. Hero has the nuts. Villan bets $300 and has about $3000 behind. I'm thinking to myself, how can I get the most from him here. If he has KK, then I'll get it anywayThen I realize, he hates me - I can stack him here. I look him in the face and laugh, and shove for $3k. He insta-calls and shows AK.

I say, "Nice call."
