Default RESULTS

I thought about it for a while, then realized I was stuck a few grand and if I won this hand I'd be positive again, so there's no way I could consider folding.

I also figured pushing might possibly somehow maybe let him off the hook if all he has is AK, so better line was to call the check-raise and get it in on the river, as BluffThis suggested. I can also probably drop the hand if an ace falls on the river, since I think a lot of his range consists of aces up. Except I doubt I would've dropped it, but it's nice to think these things.

Anyway, I called.

River was a J which changed nothing, he pushes I call.

He has AQ, MHIG.

Sure to add more fuel to the "never fold a set" fire, but I thought it was a genuinely difficult decision, until I realized, ohno stuck, gamboooool!

you said you think he could have AK with this line, so you shouldn't fold on any river (even the ace, or I should say, especially the ace)

Default Re: RESULTS

My vibe was AQ, AA, or QQ as I was playing the hand, I thought there was a remote chance of AK but not really likely.

That's the worst possible reasoning for making poker decisions.

Still, interesting hand though.

How do you hit 750+ posts and not understand the elementary rules of poker? When you are stuck, you must play until you are unstuck, and to do that you have to gambooooooooool in raised pots.
