Re: My worst mistake ever
Assuming the river was a different board pairing flush card, do people really check-call this river?

Re: My worst mistake ever
After he was shipped the $104 pot, as the next hand was being dealt, I realized that the Jh wasn't just any old heart, it was my straight flush card. There is no explanation for my error -- I knew I had a sf draw on the flop, I knew the cards I held on the river. I had realized that a heart would be worse than a blank, since my str8 was the nuts. I wasn't hoping to make a sf, and the paired board triggerred fh thoughts, since his turn raise could have indicated a set. For some reason, I found it made me feel better to calculate exactly how much this error cost me -- I peg it at $112 --the amount in the pot plus my called c/r on the river. He would not have gone for a three bet given the paired board.
At the time I made this mistake, I was stuck about $270 from a $5-10 stud game. This put me over the $300 mark. How good was the game? Well, I caught a few cards and left three hours later up $30. |

Re: My worst mistake ever
With JTs here, I would raise it. My 9 isn't a high enough pair card to make raising worthwhile, IMHO. And in this game I'm not raising to KO anyone preflop.

Re: My worst mistake ever
im going to agree with shant here, obviously mucking a straight flush is pretty bad, but are you that sure you 9 high flush(using 2 cards) is no good, i bet the river
edit: assuming i didnt know i had a straight flush |

Your worst mistake ever is calling on river for 1 BB for a total of $8? Not bad. I don't even think it was that bad a call. The SB could have a had a single J or 89o ... [/ QUOTE ] You totally missed it. |
