I have a straight flush....but what am I beating??
 

Live $200 tourney.

EP (15,000) is an asian tight old man nitty type.
Rest of the table is kinda loose. We are still pretty deep.

Blinds are 75-150

I have ~20k UTG and limp w/ A [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]6 [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img].

EP raises to 400 which means TT+,AK,AQ

I fully intend to muck, but 3 other people call, so I call too.
Pot: 2000
Flop is:

T [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]8 [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]9 [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]

Blinds check, I check to the raiser, and he bets 1500.

Folded back to me and I decide to try to sell the naked Ah and think for a bit before just calling.

Turn is a 4s and I check planning on chraising him all in, but he checks behind.

River is 7 [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] making a final board of:

8 [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]9 [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]T [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]4 [img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img]7 [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]

I bet 2k and he calls time...

He asks me if I have the A [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]..I stay silent, and finally he says "you no have Ace of heart, I'm all in".

I feel like he should know that I have the ace there alot and would not risk jamming w/ the Kh when he knows I wouldn't call w/ the Qh given the board.

Since I have the Ah, he can't have it, so he has to have exactly red JJ, right?

Am I crazy??

If he has it then power to him ... I go broke here every time because I couldn't live with myself if someone made me fold a straight flush with the K of hearts

it's probably a live thing, which i guess is tough to get across in a post.

He's got it. I can't fold but you should.

Yeah. Wow this sucks. If you had red 66, I think you gotta call, because he could be a moron with the Ah and doesn't see the sf. But that speech is almost always the nuts (or what they think is the nuts). If the board is 8 [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] 3 [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] 3 [img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] 5 [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] J [img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] and someone says "I don't think you have the flush, I'm all in", they have a boat EVERY TIME. I think since there's no way that he has a boat, and no way he has the Ah, he HAS to have the Jh. Has to.

Yeah, he wouldnt raise unless he had it, he's not raising with Kh. But im still calling, cause he might be a total donk.

Re: I have a straight flush....but what am I beating??
 

Could put him on K [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]Q [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] or Q [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]J [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] on a pf steal that went well and just got better. Is it possible that he has K [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]J [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] or K [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] Jx ?

It sure seems like he's got the J [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] in any case. But I really don't think you can lay this down, if that's what you're getting at?

Re: I have a straight flush....but what am I beating??
 

Yeah, I couldn't live with myself if I didn't call but it would be equally hard after I saw his Jh.

Soss --

You got it exactly right. There are a few subtle variations on the theme that sometimes indicate bluffs, but this line is the jack of hearts far more than anything else.

Good fold, if you made it.

I'm not this good ... if you folded and he showed the J then you are the man

Do you show the folded 6?
