Poker\'s always funner when you catch runner-runner
This post has little value other than pure entertainment.
It's about the worst bad beat I ever DISHED OUT, which occurred last night at the MGM 4-8 limit hold'em. Three limpers and I limp on the button with 33. Blinds come along, no raise. Flop 9 6 6 two tone. Checked around. I decide to bet. This might have been foolish, in hindsight, but stay tuned... One caller. Turn a trey. Check, I bet, call. River a TREY. Check, I bet, he raises, I reraise. He had 69 and flopped the boat. I hang my head in shame as I stack the chips. I am forced to pay penance by giving the dealer an extra $2 tip, on top of my initial $2 tip. So here's the poll... al |

None of the above.... your opponent is a fool, he let you draw out like a Magoo. What does he expect? He deserves to go up against quads.... that my friend is no bad beat!

Re: Poker\'s always funner when you catch runner-runner
Yeah, I'll go along with that. He flops a boat and... checks?
Ok, I can see a checkraise, but he didn't? Ok, maybe he was waiting for the bet size increase on the turn. But he checks? Ok, maybe a checkraise, but he doesn't? You didn't suck out. He blew. |

Re: Poker\'s always funner when you catch runner-runner
It was a very checky kind of game. Except for myself and two others, everyone else in the game wouldn't bet anything at all. Top pair, queen kicker, that's a CHECK of course. Make a straight, check-call. As I said, the games have been very good at MGM. Saturday I think I'll play 6-12 again, or maybe 10-20.

How come super-mega-magoo isn't an option? [img]/images/graemlins/confused.gif[/img] [img]/images/graemlins/blush.gif[/img]

I think one of the poll options should be "Bill Fillmaff's opponent." [img]/images/graemlins/cool.gif[/img] [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

You can't fold if he doesn't bet or raise...
Not a suck-out. |
