Default why pay a BB just to see another player\'s cards?

Live $4-$8 game last night. I bet the river with my middle pair ace kicker and got called by a guy who held a Jack high. He said "I just have to see your cards." I took down a decent pot, plus $8 that no one in their right mind would have contributed.

I'll take the 8 bucks, but why would someone do this?

Maybe he got a read at you and wanted to see what you played that way

yeah yeah yeah [img]/images/graemlins/tongue.gif[/img] I guess I am operating under the assumption that stupidity is common only at the lower levels?

If that's not the case, great! 10-20 should be as much fun as 4-8 [img]/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img]
