Meh. Sorry guys, I was trying to make a point but obviously picked a too far out there hand for it.

edit: did I mention (I know I did to you, heh) that way back at the start of my poker career, tommy angelo was my role model and I wound up check/calling quads 3 times once? That was fun.

Don't apologize that some don't get it. A crucial skill lacking in some of the best players is on display here, and it isn't your fault some are unable to pick up on it.

And good god people, don't underestimate the value of saving 8BBs and playing on. "I'll have nothing left so I might as well call" when the truth is you'll have 8BBs is just so bad, and yet so prevalent. One steal and one double up and you are at 20BBs, for god's sake.

Well done, adanthar.
