Default Re: How badly can I get owned here?

I know exactly who you're talking about, Shawn, and I couldn't have said it any better than Barry already did.

But this thread reminds me of a funny fives-full hand I played last night.

I open 55, one of the blinds calls.

Flop QQ5. He checks I bet he calls.
Turn 9. He checks I bet he calls.
River Q. He bets.

I cry and laugh and get ready to muck. But he's starting to squirm for some reason and I think I pick up a tell that he doesn't want me to call for some reason. So I show him my hand. The table groans around me. I say, "What are you sitting on over there, pocket sixes?" He says "Want me to show you?" So I say yes. He laughs and shakes his head. I decide maybe I should make a loose call here, so I do.

He taps the table and says "good call." Sweet! My spirits are lifted just long enough for him to then turn his hand over and say "You were right." And he has 66. I eat cyanide.

OK sorry for writing that in this thread.
