Snowman 0 Posted August 18, 2005 Share Posted August 18, 2005 but a close farrell maybe. Keep your eyes on CO (and on the board cards). I fell out of my chair laughing when I saw this one.Party Poker 2/4 Hold'em (10 handed) converterPreflop: Hero is BB with [7h], [2d]. 6 folds.Flop: (5 SB) [Ac], [Qd], [As] (2 players)SB checks, CO bets, SB calls.Turn: (3.50 BB) [Qh] (2 players)SB checks, CO bets, SB calls.River: (5.50 BB) [Ah] (2 players)SB checks, CO folds.Final Pot: 5.50 BB Link to post Share on other sites

creepy20 0 Posted August 18, 2005 Share Posted August 18, 2005 great laydown...facing a check on the river..that much pressure..you gotta fold. Link to post Share on other sites

bdams19 0 Posted August 18, 2005 Share Posted August 18, 2005 except you cant misclick when you are faced with a check, since it prompts you if you want to fold, making this even more baffling... Link to post Share on other sites

psujohn 0 Posted August 18, 2005 Share Posted August 18, 2005 I'd ask what you were doing defending 72o but if the CO will fold to non-existant pressure it's probably worth a shot. :)I actually had a case once where I was in the SB with something mediocre. Folded to me and I complete, BB folds. I had to look at the hand history three times to believe it.I wonder if you pre-select your move if it still prompts you "are you sure you want to be an idiot and fold when you can check". I"ve come pretty close to pre-selecting fold in the BB when I wasn't paying attention. Link to post Share on other sites

psujohn 0 Posted August 18, 2005 Share Posted August 18, 2005 the OP was the BB and folded to the CO raise.Doh! Used to reading posts in strat which very rarely involve hands that the OP folds pre-flop. Never mind.That leaves the question - can you open-farrel using the pre-selection buttons or does it still warn you that you're being an idiot. I suppose I could try. Wonder what an open-farrel does to your table image. Link to post Share on other sites
Snowman 0 Posted August 18, 2005 Author Share Posted August 18, 2005 Doh! Used to reading posts in strat which very rarely involve hands that the OP folds pre-flop. Never mind.No worries. I'm used to posting there, but I thought the strategic value of this post was... limited. Unless it's a play that's waaaay over my head. Link to post Share on other sites
Solodell 0 Posted August 18, 2005 Share Posted August 18, 2005 he was obviously slowplaying the A and then didn't want the other guy to know he could slowplay, so he folded to avoid the showdown.not that it's necessary, but (sw) Link to post Share on other sites
Wingmaster05 0 Posted August 18, 2005 Share Posted August 18, 2005 Speaking of Farell, i couldve swore i saw a john farell that survived day 1 of the WSOP main event. had something like 30K in front of him.
