Default Re: Live 6/12: A8 flops a gutter and goes to war

Playing against weak players is not exactly rocket science, so I'm not sure what you were doing in this hand. Fold preflop (or call), fold flop. You make money in these games by hitting hands and watching your pot odds, not raising calling stations when you have 2 outs. If you do happen to hit a miracle on the turn and don't get outdrawn on the river, even the most brain dead opponent is going to know the straight is obvious, so you don't even have enough implied odds to boost your bad pot odds anyway.
