Agreed. This is what I ended up doing. He spent maybe 5 seconds thinking, and then called. River was a blank, I flipped up my hand, and he mucked??????!!!!

The only hand I can possibly imagine him having after he mucked is A [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]K [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]. I definitely did not think I was ahead, but figured that if he had a pair 99-AA, I might get him to lay it down considering he was scared of me.

I really think people who are saying we have the best hand are ludicrous. Given description of Villain, he's not showing up with complete air or 66 in this spot, he usually has a higher pair than us once he leads the turn. If we are winning, it's against big hearts. Shoving the turn is essentially a bluff to try and fold out 99/TT/JJ, and to not give a cheap shot to the aforementioned AhKh etc.

So Hero's saying that he shoved, villain called and lost? Then what's the point of this post? You won, big deal, who cares villain had, if you had him dominated?

I think this whole hand was made up and never happened.
