CO bets t150, Hero calls t150.

Final Pot: t1000

What I found interesting was the bantering and exchanges, which are summarized below:

on final bet by CO, I say (Hero/Rview487): I'm sure you have the Ace but I have to call. (END of HAND)

stirlingc: lol
rosco544: a 9 had you beat too
rosco544: 8 outs had you
Rview487: that's nice
Rview487: your point?
rosco544: is my point not obvious....you just threw 150 chips in the garbage
Rview487: actually not
Rview487: I lost, but you gave me 5:1 to call on your last bet
rosco544: lol....5:1.....and you probably had about 10:1 to lose that
rosco544: you misread your pot odds

I knew I was up against it here, straight, flush, fullhouse...I'm not suggesting that I played this hand well, and I was certain I had lost it. I would appreciate comments as to my play on this hand, and the conversation that occurred after the hand.
I'm preparing for a major event in a month, and this was a nothing tourney based on money, but I'm attempting to play some tourneys deep to prepare. Thank you.

Don't listen to the fish...except for purposes of Comedy [img]/images/graemlins/tongue.gif[/img]

I would probably have raised a little more on the turn.
I have no prob with the river play.

Thread hijack:

Can anyone please tell me WTF sb is thinking? I see players do this quite frequently, but can't empathise with their thought process.

Do they just see a pretty looking "bet" button and hit it? Or is there any method to the madness.

I just can't get into their heads and it bugs me...

BTW: CO wins 980 chips from the main pot with a straight, ten to ace

wheatrich · #7 01-29-2006, 08:37 PM

Well he tried to give you 180 chips, so it's probably even there.

First mistake is getting involved in this kind of chat dialog. Morons won't let up on you in the chat once you have them spun up. Chat like this does nothing but make worse players play better.

You should feel good. Your opponent made two mistakes on the end. First is the obvious lame-o turn call. Second is that he didn't bet enough on the end to make his implied odds call on the turn worthwhile. Truth be told, he lost and you gained.

Thanks everyone. I appreciate tbe feedback. I was fairly sure I was OK on this one.
And for what it's worth, I know I should have kept my mouth shut.
