Default Re: I have a straight flush....but what am I beating??

BTW I think online or even without chat/speech this is a really standard fold.

at what level does that table talk make us fold a hand when he doesn't have the goods ... or are people generally incapable of that kind of deception?

So what if he actually has the K and says that either unwittingly or intentionally getting us to fold the Ace or the 6?

When does level 3 thinking jump too high and fold back to level 1?

There's lots of reasons to fold here. For me, the chat is enough (because a nit would just never, ever, ever do this) but as Black Aces, OP and others have pointed out, simple hand reading is enough. It's a four flush board. We have the the nut flush card and the other end of the SF card. It looks a lot like we have the ace at least.

He would have to be a retard here shoving a K for value. A K is the worst heart to have here, you only beat 1 hand the Q. Since you have the A and it would be two times as retarded to push the Q he has to have the J.

Nice fold.........

"So I asked him "do you have the Ace"? knowing he may have it but he doesn't have the J (my read at the table) and I shove with air because now he thinks I have the nut straight flush and I know he is a thinking player"

Obviously this didn't happen ... awesome fold ... but it MUST happen.

The river's great, but I think you really messed up flop + turn.

Well Sir I think this play would make you either the worst or greatest player in the world. Depending on if he folds or not lol.
