Commentary:

It was nearing the end of a long session against a regular villain who was a tag. The table was five-handed at this point. It was the usual thrust and counterthrust, he suggesting he had a big hand I suggesting I did not believe him. However, on fifth he had three spades showing including the queen of spades and he was betting it like he had it but then he would do that even if he had not so I decide just to call him down. I really don't think he has it but there is a nagging feeling in the back of my mind. Yet again being heads up on fifth with some dead money and knowing this guy knows that you only have to bet once without being called heads up and the pot becomes his I am confident enough that he does not have the flush.

The question of whether he has the flush on fifth is somewhat moot for by the river he most certainly does. But so do I. His flush is queen high in spades. I have backed into the king high flush in spades. He makes the twenty-first raise on the river and I call. I discover I am good.

Then despite the thought that drove my, namely I am good and I am not stopping betting. The same thought which must have gripped my opponent. I looked at the pot size and was astounded. I am horrified to realize that the moment had gripped me and I do not know where the ace of spades was. It had not been folded in the upcards and could have easily been in his hand. What made me call was the thought that he may have backed into a full house if the three flush board on fifth was masking trips.

I do not regret calling but do regret losing control and not knowing where the ace of apades was at the very minimum. Egregious.

it took you to the 21st raise to consider that he might have backed into a full house? [img]/images/graemlins/confused.gif[/img]
