Is this all an elaborate plot to get bld to divulge what he was holding? If so, its a great idea, and well executed.

My prediction:

Samoleus limped in second position, BLd raised with 8c6s.

BLd was the one who ended up pushing the river, and Samoleus folded the winning hand of 55. BLd shows his bluff.

I got goosebumps and shuddered from head to toe

Pretty obvious from what was said in this thread that Sam folded the hand.

With that in mind the question for you is whether or not you think you can lead him into believing you have JJJ by pushing. If you can, you also have to recognize the difficulty facing him laying down a set which he is clearing representing.

Well yeah but how often does he believe you for these two holdings?

Sam doesnt open limp.

Your loose calls are predicated on the assumption that if u do hit the straight you can take all his chips (if he has a set). And yet now you're saying there's a fair chance he will fold a set if you bluff? Slight logical inconsistency here. If he folds here then why he isnt he also folding when you hit the straight? Or does he conveniently call when you have a hand?
