well, with 40 left over in to a huge pot, you have to call.

where you messed up is not the river but the turn.

Who 3 bets the turn with top pair?

i agree his fishy check on the flop his three bet on the turn... it was getting obvious he had AA, that what alarmed me and made me think to check the river...

Probably should've used your intuition to fold preflop.

I agree, why were you in this hand to begin with?

Damn nits.

This hand is fine to play preflop for little money.

Really why?

amoeba · #9 06-08-2005, 02:26 PM

SSNL has really gotten tight.

Its a minraise and hero is in position and villain is one to minraise with monster hands preflop.

preflop call is fine.

PinkSteel · #10 06-08-2005, 02:41 PM

I don't understand. I would never play 98o from MP in an unraised pot.

Are you suggesting the call is OK because of the minraise? That this is one of those "chance to smack the flop hard and stack a big pocket pair" plays, like Ghazban's "hahahahahahahahaha" post?

I'll buy that argument but you need to be clear that that's it, because right now I muck this hand preflop in a second.
