I Don't Think It Was That Hard A Laydown


Recommended Posts

I'm playing a home game tournament last night and early on I get dealt QC 9H in the button. Three players see the flop and it comes 10H JH AH. It's checked to me and I put out a feeler bet and get two callers. Turn comes KH. First player bets and second person raises. I take a couple minutes before I decide to fold. First player re-raises all in and gets called. Sure enough, he has the QH for the royal. I let everyone know what I folded and they're just simply amazed I had the ability to lay it down. I didn't think it was that difficult a fold. Maybe that's why I ended up winning the tournament :)Is that an easy fold for anyone else?

That's the one card that puts you out of the tourney early so unless you have a real strong tell on your opponent that he doesn't have you beat or unless you got short-stacked early, you should wait for a better opportunity to get it all to the center IMO.

In a home game, I dealt a very similar situation. The guy with the 9 didn't lay it down.It's a weird feeling to deal someone a Royal when you've played thousands upon thousands more hands than him and never gotten one yourself.

The second time my friend Jill showed up to our home game, I dealt her a Royal. And by dealt, I mean flopped. Best part? Guy next to her flopped a set of kings.

I once folded pocket queens when an ace and king came on flop, and there was a bet, a raise and a reraise.The queens ended up being goodSo was that a bad fold?
