Default Re: OT: [censored] thread, September, READ RULES IN TOP POST

I faked a physical tell on Friday night in the Orleans tournament. It was awesome. Dude two to my right loves to call every one of my preflop raises in position because apparently I always bluff and someone needs to catch me. I raise KQo and he calls on the button. 4 to the flop see 8-high, two hearts. Checks to him and he bets 1/4-pot. Two players fold. I obviously float. Turn is the J[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] and I do the Caro's Book of Tells looking at chips, pot, board, chips, board, chips, away..... chips, check. He checks behind and I get ready a 2/3-pot bet before the river comes. It's an offsuit queen. I bet. He says "I know you have hearts. I can't beat hearts. Nice call on the flop," and mucks. Um... nice hand to you too, buddy.

Luckily, someone else at the table discovered a sure-fire way to flop a set with 44 every time: limp-call 2/5 of your stack UTG and then trap me and my double-gutter for the rest.
