Default Re: Straight Flush draw after flop.. Guy got mad at me for my play.

Preflop: call is a little marginal from the big blind for roughly a quarter of your stack.

(But hey marginal is how I usually live my life [img]/images/graemlins/wink.gif[/img])

Postflop: Crazy Outs + Table Bully = Chance to double up at his expense.

I like the move Postflop-just turn the chat off next time and don't let it get to ya.

Did ya win?

Of course it is good play, and of course he won't stop talking about how bad it was - he is a bully and want to discourage the others at the table from calling his bets in the future. Intimidating works on some.

The play is fine. If he's a bully it's likely he has nothing and will fold to your all in, and even if he call it you still have a buttload of outs to beat whatever he's holding). The fact you are short stacked a little makes it even more the correct play.

Apparently this guy has never heard of a semi-bluff. People just get mad when they lose.

In last nights 2+0 on PP I had AA and some guy with abotu half my chips apparently just wanted to go so he went all in with his 34o, to which I of course called. Flop is 7 3 3, needless to say we both found it pretty hysterical. Lost like half my stack to a guy who was TRYING to lose the hand, such is poker.

Your OESF is a massive favorite over his range of raising hands, methinks. Combine this with your relatively short stack, easy play.

Ignore the idiots, focus on making the right plays yourself. You did so here...
