Default Do you like to suck out?

Obviously winning is better than losing, but do you enjoy sucking out on people?

I just sucked out on someone for their whole stack and after the hand I felt bad. I didn't feel bad for sucking out, I felt bad that I had put my money in with way the worst of it.

Indifferent.

However, I truly love reverse sucking out.

I have set on flop, we get all in, he has flush draw, flush hits turn (oh well, that's poker), river pairs the board (yes! you and your flush can go straight to jail, do not pass go, do not collect my 100 dollars!).

Perhaps I'll get over this eventually...

I think resucks are better than having someone push in on you when you have the nuts.

For me it's a mixture of the first and fourth choices.

I was going to type a long response, but this sums it up for me too.

At first when I realize what's happened, I'm disappointed I put my money in behind, but I'll take any suckout I can get.

Amen. Until I can truly take pleasure in my Sklansky dollars, I'll take pleasure every time my set fills up against the flopped nuts.

Default Re: Do you like to suck out?

I love sucking out.

Hate being in a position where I need to, but love it when it happens - it's better than aces holding up. I do a silly little dance. I was likely to lose and then I win? AWESOME!

I don't feel guilty at all it's just the universe converting some of my sklansky dollars to real money.
