wisky_VI 0 Posted May 10, 2005 Share Posted May 10, 2005 My personal largest pot was 9 6 , limped on the button and flopped the flush. Was against someone who turned out to have top pair and K but luckily he didn't draw out on me. Link to post Share on other sites

TheIceman05 0 Posted May 10, 2005 Share Posted May 10, 2005 I limped on the button with 6s7s with a big stack. The big blind raised to 4x with a similar stack. To my surprise, 2 others at the short-table called, and I also called. The flop was perfect. 4s5s Jx. The BB made a pot sized bet, another player called, I raised 1/3 of my stack, hoping to win the pot there. BB calls, last player moves all in. I move in behind him, figuring the all-in player for a set and the BB for a high pocket pair, hoping to clean up any running-spade outs he might have. He calls with kings. The other all-in player turned over AA.The turn was the As, and the river didn't pair the board, and I won a mosnter.I was berated for my play, even though I was way ahead of everyobody on the flop.

benhoug 0 Posted May 10, 2005 Share Posted May 10, 2005 Probably Q 10 . I raised from up front (had been playing real tight, so this play was definitely mixing up my game), flopped a straight draw and hit it on the turn. The other player flopped a set and said he couldn't possibly put me on the straight b/c I had raised pre-flop so he paaaaaaaiiiiidddd me off. Link to post Share on other sites

IceHow were you way ahead of everyone on the flop? They all had made hands and you were on a draw. You had to put them on big pairs, possibly with cards of your suit. That means even if you hit the flush on the turn, they had redraws against you on the river. The only safe cards would have been if you made the straight or a straight flush. You had a ton of outs and I probably would have called as well in this situation, but I would have never figured myself as way ahead. Link to post Share on other sites

RadGrad2005 0 Posted May 10, 2005 Share Posted May 10, 2005 I think he meant that on the flop (when he put all his money in) he had over 50% chance of making a straight or a flush (or even a straight flush). And because he has over 50% vs 2 callers (I think it was 2 callers), he is way ahead.Okey dokey? Link to post Share on other sites

angler 0 Posted May 10, 2005 Share Posted May 10, 2005 Holding K 1o spades, 3 players left in a casino tournament, I am short stacked 2400 left after post. Blinds are 800 and 1200 and the chip leader, who had been playing the bully calls, small blind calls, I call as well.Flop - As 7c 10hChip leader raises to 2400, me and the other guy call, I am all in. Turn and river are spades. I went on to finish second. I wish it was skill. Link to post Share on other sites
TheIceman05 0 Posted May 10, 2005 Share Posted May 10, 2005 The BB had the King of spades, meaning he had running spade outs, and he'll win about 8% (ish?) of the time. The AA is going to hold up less than 40% of the time. This means I win at least 52% of the time (probably closer to 54, off the top of my head). This means a few things. 1) I'm going to win a plurality (more than anyone else) of the time, which means I'm ahead.2) It's a 3 person pot, and I'll win a MAJORITY (more than half) of the time time, which means I'm WAY ahead. 3) If the hand ended on the flop, I'm losing every time, but if you think that means I'm behind, you're misunderstanding something very importantMy hand is ahead of anything here, unless someone made a set (I'm still in good shape), or another player has an improbable flush draw (A2 or A3 being the absolute worst.

kaisersoze12 0 Posted May 10, 2005 Share Posted May 10, 2005 on a pure steal I raised 7-9 off from CO. Pot limit cash game. .5-1 blinds. Button smooth called with Aces and the small blind did as well with Kings. Flop was a pretty6-8-10 rainbow.SB bet his Kings, I called, buttons raised his aces and before I knew it a ton of money was in the pot and I had the nuts. Took 350 on that one after all was said and done without ever raising the pot after the pre-flop raise. Just calling and letting the other two kick each other. Link to post Share on other sites

AceOfSpaiDs 0 Posted May 10, 2005 Share Posted May 10, 2005 I have 3....KK, AK, 10 J :the KK I was reraised all-in at a $3/$6 NL table by QQ and won $350. KK won me $160 at a $1/$2 NL table at 3palmspoker.com, and 10 J was in a live game, it was a $10 buy-in tournament (home game), and the prize pool was at $250 (220 for 1st, 2nd gets 30). It was me and 4 other guys left. I was the chip leader (dont remember amounts). I raised a big amount b4 the flop (little did I know, A Q , K9, and JJ had limped in, the blinds were pretty high). Everyone called, and the flop came A-K-9. 1st to go checked (holding K9) and I raised the same amount I did b4 the flop (Doyle style), and to my surprise, everyone called except the JJ, but at least I was betting with an out, anyways, the turn was my magical Q (with no real flush draw on the board, I overbet the pot, almost looking like I was trying to steal, well, the AQ called and raised me all-in, the K9 called and I easily called. They were both all-in and I had plenty of chips left if I lost. The river was a blank and I took down the large pot. It was down to me and 2 other guys, and with a HUGE COMMANDING chip lead, I took the tourny. The biggest home game pot we've ever had, and I walked away with $220 outta $250.

brisk 0 Posted May 11, 2005 Share Posted May 11, 2005 $1-$2 NL at excaliburpreflop raise to $10 from ep, i was the only caller (in mp too) with 7 8 flop, 7 2 8 he fires out $20, i flat call it was semi-stupid not to raise (i really do hate slow playing), but i put him on an overpairturn, 7 ...jackpot!he fires another $20 ... i ponder shortly, and flat callriver, k he bets $30, and i say "you didn't really hit that K did you?" ... and he says, "yeh, i did"at this point, i shortly consider that he had pocket K's, but would have expected a larger turn bet if he did, so i go all in for $102 more than his $30Now ... to go back in time ... i had attempted a bluff at him (4-to a straight on the board) about a half hour earlier that he called, but said, "had you gone all in, i'd of folded"...so now back to the present ... he calls and flips over .... k 5 for a missed flush draw but a made pair on the river!!!! can you believe that? i couldn't. my slow playing seems genius in hind site.that pot was about $330Other good hands were:also at excalibur my KK vs. QQ vs. AJo (horrible third call) and my kings held up for around $300Andat imperial palace, my AK vs. KK vs. QQ when i spiked an A on the turn for about $280 Link to post Share on other sites
