Re: ***** November LC Thread *****

Okay, the 20 down is official:

What pisses me off the most about this hand is that no matter what I would have done, I was destined to lose. I am not not math genius, but I know that the chances of seeing back-door straight draws are pretty slim, and yet another one........:::::::

"What happened in the rest of the game daveT?" Oh, I'll tell you, he hit EVERYTHING!!!!! And this is like the 10th damn back-door straight draw, back door trips, backdoor flush that I have lost to over the past few days. Ugh!

Re: ***** November LC Thread *****

why no bet on the flop? He *probably* was going to call no matter what, but you didn't actually put him to a real decision until he had already made the straight.

Re: ***** November LC Thread *****

Jeeze, now we have full HHs being posted in the LC!

Re: ***** November LC Thread *****

What difference does it make why I didn't bet? Nothing I do makes sense anyways.

I thought about shoving the flop, but I figured, hey this guy is a stupid nut-peddling rock, so he won't call with that ace up there, and I check because maybe maybe he will call with some sort of pocket pair on a later street because there is no way he has some bs hand here.
