what to do when you win with trash?


Recommended Posts

regarding the OP... usually i try to say the DUMBEST possible thing after something like this happens... the classic "but it was sooooooted" works, but sometimes you should be creativefor your hand, it would be wise to drop something akin to "I was on a two-pair draw"
I always say sorry but it is my favorite hand.
I like to drop the favorite hand line then wait awhile play a different terrible hand and use the favorite hand line again...I call it the 10-4, 8-3 double punch--people will call your pre-flop raises and all-in's on a flop with two aces after the double punch. Also I've had no less than three winning Krablar showdowns that eventually get me the K.O. in a SnG tournament.On the second favorite hand I usually tell them its for "religious reasons"--ahhh, I love the hustle.

I always make a game out of putting the table on tilt. Its really funny I will play solid most of the first hour and then for deception purposes play or raise with some just bs like 92 off utg(I will never call raises with junk just because its such a losing play). If I win the pot in a showdown It usually succeeds in putting the whole table against me. I get scolded by several "real players," and then make it my mission to play a more action oriented game in order to throw the others off and get good value out of my hand. I usually follow up my stinky beats with catchphrases such as "oopsie woopsie!" Or "Yabba Dabba Do any twoll do!" This really upsets my opponents and makes me have to pee from laughing so hard.

Every so often, I'll switch it up and play a trash hand. Example....playing 1/2 NL, call a min. raise with K5, in middle position (like I said, just shifting gears). It's me and the original rasier heads up. Flop come A-5-5. He goes all in for $105, and of course I call. He shows A-K, and gets no help. So my K5os shows, and I catch all kinds of crap. I mean, 99.9% of the time I play tight-aggressive, but what do you do when you get lucky and win with junk?!?!?
transfer the money back to him immediately. everyone knows the rules: only the best two hole cards can win. it is unfortunate that people like you insist on trying to make poker into a game of skill.

I couldn't read all the replies, but if you don't like catching a hard time from the other players like that then just play exactly as they want you to. It should make it easier for them to win and then they will like you more. *shrug*

I know that I should be happy about the situation, but it's hard to keep my mouth shut with all these people talking trash to me!!!
If you are going to worry post flop about taking crap when your junk K 5 turns into trip 5's, maybe you should have folded them then :roll:

I only read the title of the post.Answer: rake the chips towards me and stack them nicely. Then hope that people noticed and call down my big hands.If you are thinking about showing any sympathy of feeling bad about it than poker is probably not for you.

well my philosophy is that im just pretty much getting back the money i spent calling off other bad hands and chasing etc. and K 5 ?? i hope thats at least sooted !!! cuz the only dream flops are 5 5 k , 5 5 blank K K blankand u probably are outkicked on the king's if u share it with someone
