Interesting spot - 5/10 live - Page 2

So - you're somewhat getting at why I think this is interesting.

If Psycho bets the flop and fattie raises - then I know I'm good. Psycho has any 2 and fattie has a big king, easy.

The fact that psycho c/r all in on a dry flop and fattie flat calls makes this a questionable decision, no?

Or...as most seem to think...the mechanics of the hand are meaningless and I have top 2 4-handed against 2 monkeys, I'm good so often here that it's a no brainer.

LOL AM I RITE

Anyway, top two against two bad players in a 4-handed game. Even if you're behind, you have outs.

yeah the mechanics of the hand are somewhat interesting, but if the action wasn't weird there would be no reason to post it and you'd have an autocall/push.

but you answered it in your last post, although the psychos c/r and buttons call are suspicious, you're hand is just too good to fold here. Make it bottom two and you'd have a tough spot.

Button flat called because he doesn't believe the psycho. its really not that scary.

I meant, if he calls. For the reasons la mentioned, he's good just too much to fold here. So, it's call or push. Given the $1650 in there after his call, might as well just go ahead and stick the rest in.

There is imo never a reason to fold based on this action and these players. However, in live games, I will fold here when I take a look at one of these guys and know for sure he has a set.

Playing live rules.

Especially with fat guys and mad Russians.

So, yeah. Strategy-wise, interesting, not interesting whatever.

These days I find myself only posting the most fun hands from sessions, which are often not the most interesting....

So I stand up and yell "ALL IN", fat boy goes into the tank - for like an hour, and then glares at me amd mucks KJo face up. Huge laydown.

Russian looks at me seriously and says "You have set?".

"No, I have top 2" I say.

Russian lights up and says "I have outs baby!" as he rolls K9o.

Turn 9.

Good times.
