Default TT WHAT THE ####!

Sorry, this smells of a bad beat, but this hand really got me thinking about poker.

Anyway, I am in the SB with T [img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] T [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]

Five limpers and I raise.

I don't think it really matters, but for the purist, we are at 10 SB

flop: K [img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] K [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] Q [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]

I bet out to try to represent big slick, and (heaven forbid) figure out where I am. Every one folds except two donkeys, who I place on connecting the board.

13 SB

Turn: 6 [img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img]

Fantastic, I check and fold to a bet from donkey #1, donkey #2 calls.

The river brings J [img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img]

Before mucking my hand, I show it to a prop, and he laughs at the river, proclaiming my tens D-E-A-D.

So be it, Donkey #1 bets and Donkey#2 calls.

They both show down A4 offsoot to split the pot.

A prop to my right explains that these guys are idiots, didn't I see them show a 52 offsoot at the river?

The moral of this fascinating story is that what I thought was a clear fold turned out to be me giving my competetion to much credo, althought I would have given a home- grown retard the credit for a hand....

Anyway, for all of us who like to read hands, sometimes we are bitterly wrong, and I guess we really have to sit and consider our competing before making a guess.

1) bet the turn and fold to a raise
2) don't be so results-oriented
3) if you're just discovering that donkeys hold crap hands sometimes, and that's getting you to finally think about poker, you should be playing micro-limits and learning, not 5/10
