board is KQJ5(rainbow) I have QQ pot in 4500, donk checks, I bet 3500, donk calls river 10 donk bets 150(the sixe of the BB) I call he shows 97, called with a gutshot to the ass end of a str8 donk-"I just suckered you right in on the river, didnt I"
Ive had a similar experience. I had QQ, I raised UTG in a short handed live .25/50 cent game to $3. Three callers.Flop comes Q/7/7 with a flush draw. SB leads out for $5, i call, guy behind me calls. Turn completes the flush with like a deuce. SB checks, i lead for $15, guy behind folds, sb calls. At this point i have about $6 left in my stack, and the pot is nearly $50. River is the third seven. He goes all in for $6 more. I call. He shows 7/5off for quads.He gives a sheepish grin and says, "i wanted to make it look like i was buying it so you would call".

i read that one the other day. when i was done i tried to fork my eyes out.

I busted a guy out a few weeks back...down to 3 in a tournie..this guy's stack was fluctuating wildly throughout the game--he'd play everything, get beat, then get lucky.Anyway, I had KK. Flop was K 10 6. Turn was 6. River 10. I knew he was a maniac, so I was checking/calling pre-flop, pre-turn. He went all in after the turn. I called. He had pocket 8s.Obviously, my K-10 boat beat his 8s and 6s.Then he started freaking out calling me names, saying "I hope you lose! Hahahahaha!" and"Your country sucks, too!"and"Canada..why would anyone want to live in America Jr."I just sat back and laughed and laughed.

Playing in a home game with a bunch of Donkeys, it is down to heads-up and we are about even in chips -- I have him out-chipped by a minimal amount. I look down at 88 and raise about 3xBB, donkey re-raises about 1/4 his stack, and I re-reaise all in. He contemplates for a few minutes and calls with Q9o, Donkey obviously catches a Q and takes my stack down hard. His reasoning for calling with that:"I put you on AK"Donkey.
Actually, after he raises 1/4 of his stack and you put him all in, he should call if you SHOW him AK.

He even said not technically higher in HU situations yet you still took it upon yourself to try to look smarter than somebody.Keep tryin Eddie, I bet there's someone who still doesn't know how to spell Hellmuth that you can try to impress.

Actually KJs IS a better hand. Sklansky has it in Group 3, yet doesn't have A2 in any group.What does he know, though?"Sit down and shut up" - and I need the midol?

Local casino, 3/6 with kill making it 3/12 spread.I sit down with $60, husband and wife sitting next to each other opposite me (never seen them not lose several racks)First hand AA I raise, everybody folds but she callsXXX flop, she checks, I bet she callsx on turn, she checks, I bet she callsx on river, she bets I raise she callsturns over somethin like 7 5 suited for two pr on the river.Over the next 20 minutes I get, QQ, JJ, 10 10 and AK suitedthe betting went almost exactly as with the first hand, I was down $60 in no time, called for another $60 over when he says, "welcome to the world of low limit poker and my wife" I replied back, you can keep your wife but keep playing like that and I am going home with your chips.About 4 hours later they were down about $600 between them and I left the night up about $450, I hear they are no longer welcome as they got caught colluding.

Against each other heads up and all in preflop, yes. If you have to play them postflop in both limit and no limit, i think you'll have a much more difficult time playing A/2off and probably make more with KJs.Against a reasonable range of hands that an opponent, or a field of opponents may have, KJs is superior; both in it's preflop equity and how well it can be played post flop.
