An Unexpected Wager
75 stud at Borgata. Four handed must move game. I have (J6) J and raise after a loose passive player limps with a ten up. This player is not loose aggressive but plays many hands and goes to far with them. He will sometimes make a play though and has a few tricks, but generally goes to the river alot. Anyway, we see 4th street heads up (suits didn't seem important to the hand, so I won't bother making them up).
4th Street
Hero: (J6) J 10
Villain: (xx) 10 6
I'm high and bet out. Villain calls.
5th Street
Hero: (J6) J 10 Q
Villain: (xx) 10 6 4
I bet, villain calls.
6th Street
Hero: (J6) J 10 Q A
Villain: (xx) 10 6 4 4
Villain now leads into my board. WTF? He's quite passive, but like I said not a rock. That said, his bet is pretty bold into my board and I got a very bad feeling about it.
FWIW, all my cards, including the kings are totally live. Thoughts?
P.S. This was one of the worst weekends I've ever had gambling - hopefully you all fared better.
