What were you thinking calling the 2 bets PF? Serious question.

Normally I would have never done it. But in my defence... it wasn't a COLD call. There were 2 infront of me doing that. Would I ever play this hand the same again? Definately not. I usually would always fold this.. this was the exception.. I thought it would be fun to share since I hit the 2 pair.. came so close. But it didnt hold up (as it shouldnt have).

despite the size of the pot, i would still fold preflop, when it gets to you its its about a 7:1 call into a big pot with your only draws being two pair, trips etc. I don't think you have 7:1 here...

flop is play is fine, im pretty sure that even if you called, the pot would be capped.

turn: call is fine, i would have liked to raise to try and push button out

river: fold UI

But why did you call?

I'm harping on this becasue I smell a pretty big problem. It might be nothing, just a fluke thing. But it could be big.

You're right. It was freezing.

Even if you're not the first to coldcall, calling multiple bets is still coldcalling. Doing so with K5o is bad. Badbadbadbadbad.

It looked like my odds were pretty much the same as if i was drawing to a gutshot.. I had posted a BB, I knew there would be a ton of callers and so I took a long shot. I knew it was a gamble and I was fine with that. It was all for fun. Normally I would never call this. I was surprised to hit the 2 pair on the flop and played what I though was close to properly after.. just a hand of fun thats all. Dont be too worried.

The table average VPIP was at about 50% and I left up 25BB anyways so it turned out okay in the end.

But never again.. i promise!
