I don't think he's talking about the converter.

I count between 7 and 26.

At first it said heros hand was KQo and he limped in preflop, I guess its fixed now, this still seems like some type of joke post.

Wrong #1 - failed to raise pre-flop from button or fold pre-flop is also an option. calling is bad. you're inviting a steal raise and you're not going to know where you're at.

#2 - calling the raise pre-flop. fold is best, re-raise all in is better than calling.

#3 - calling the flop is bad. push is best. fold is better than call.

#4 - calling the turn, folding is better.

basically you were a huge calling station - you limped and then called x 3. be more aggressive.

well, I assume you don't want him to call - so you must disagree that push is better than fold. He can't re-raise less than AI w/o being pot committed. there's a lot of money in the pot, he's got some fold equity, he's got top pair (which may be up against a worse ace or actually lord knows what with all the information gathering that's gone on here). it's kind of a blind AI push but it puts villian to a difficult decision. folding is just giving up and maybe that's the right thing to do when you've screwed up a hand as badly as this one was. but there's a fair amount of money in the pot. and when you are behind you do suck out once in a while and he is going to fold some. I think it's probably close b/t folding and pushing.
