[ QUOTE ] Poker.com Blog wrote: The biggest hurdle in online poker as opposed to live poker is your inability to physically read your opponent. In a live game if a player was to check over to you in a hand, you would have a better chance of reading weather or not you actually were ahead here, of if they were setting a trap for you. Thats the exact trap that rose55 laid on for ALLIIIN at a $2/$4 table yesterday. Preflop rose55(A-A) raised to $16 and ALLIIIN(Q-J) was the only caller, but on a Q-A-A rainbow flop rose55 checked the action over to ALLIIIN. At this point it was tricky for ALLIIN, it would be easy to see the check as a sign that rose55 was on the straight draw. ALLIIN checked and the turn was a 7, and once again rose55 checked. That check surely screamed out "STRAIGHT DRAW" and so ALLIIN pushed hard and threw $48 at the pot, only to be called down by rose55. With a possible flush draw out there as well it wouldn't have been crazy to assume that rose had something like K-T or K-J all spades, and was happy to chase to the river. When the river came it was another 7, and another check from rose55 put the ball back in ALLIIN's court. I have found myself in this position recently, and with every blank card to what you have put your opponent on you feel you are just one big bet away from taking the pot unopposed. ALLIIN clearly made a similar decision and pushed $142 into the pot. This was more than rose55 had at the table but with her quad aces she was happy to call. And with a couple of sneaky checks rose55 had a nice little $328 pot and a $400 Floptober Fest bonus to boot! [/ QUOTE ] [/ QUOTE ] Story contains poker-like-substance.

Re: LOL @ carbon poker
The particular promotion was an bonus for Flopping quads queens or higher, so if you had a hand like KK you really wanted to get to the flop.
We had a few people over the month raise is up hard preflop and have everyone fold around to them, because they didnt get to the flop they missed out on their bonus. (Rabbited hands didnt count) Just thought I should clarify what was going on. |
