Default Funny hands I HAD to post (low content)

Hey guys,
I was playing all last night and there was a SUPER calling station at my table. Check out how many bb's I raise these.

pp donks never cease to amaze, LOL!


Party Poker No-Limit Hold'em, $ BB (6 max, 6 handed) FTR converter on zerodivide.cx

Hero ($1903.75)
BB ($1354.50)
UTG ($1037)
MP ($5001.79)
CO ($8581.63)
Button ($3057.25)

Preflop: Hero is SB with Q[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img], A[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img]. Hero posts a blind of $5.
<font color="#666666">1 fold</font>, MP calls $10, CO calls $10, <font color="#666666">1 fold</font>, <font color="#CC3333">Hero (poster) raises to $95</font>, <font color="#666666">1 fold</font>, MP calls $90, CO folds.

Flop: ($220) 2[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img], A[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img], 8[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(2 players)</font>
<font color="#CC3333">Hero bets $200</font>, MP folds.

Final Pot: $420

The very next hand at the same table.


Preflop: Hero is Button with A[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img], A[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img]. SB posts a blind of $5.
UTG calls $10, MP calls $10, <font color="#666666">1 fold</font>, <font color="#CC3333">Hero raises to $200</font>, <font color="#666666">2 folds</font>, UTG calls $190, MP calls $190.

Flop: ($615) 8[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img], K[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img], 3[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(3 players)</font>
UTG checks, MP checks, <font color="#CC3333">Hero bets $500</font>, UTG folds, MP folds.

Final Pot: $1115


The talk that can come from this is one of the 2 players is a WELL respected pro (hand 2). Do you think he called with something hoping to crack and thinking he had implied odds? This is kind of like the hand in the WSOP 2005 where Sam Farha called a 1,000 chip raise at blinds 25/50 with 33, "knowing he was vs. AA (maybe)" and he was getting 9 to 1 on his money and he's 7.5 to 1 hitting a set? (he hit the set and knocked the guy out) I was wondering if other good players on here used that Sam Farha play cause I can't think of once in my life where I have.

Hand 2, I imagine the pro was most likely on a mid-high pair, TT-QQ, and the K on the flop saved him money.

Well, what about the sam farha expanation? I KNOW he didn't have a mid to high pocket pair cause he's a 28/18 and would of raised it coming in. I put him on 22-66.
