flush/opened ended hits on turn? Wow, that's sick.

set fills up on the river? Even sicker.

Top pair/flush draw doesn't hold up. Sickest of all.

Amazing how you can still play poker after these sick, sick, "suckouts."

I'm not sure this poster was being sarcastic or bitter. I read it as "wow, that really is sick." And the "suckouts" in quotes as "I put suckouts in quotes because they weren't really suckouts, but kind of, and they suck."

I hope I'm right. Maybe I'm just in a glass is half full mood because I'm heading to play in a casino in a few hours.

Anyway, as I already posted, I feel for you. I hope I have better luck or the luck of your villains [img]/images/graemlins/wink.gif[/img]

Quick sample hand to give you an idea of how the play was at my table (9-handed):

UTG limps, UTG+1 makes it 12, 4 callers around including the button... SB makes it 41, bb FLATS. All in all, six callers preflop for 41. In a 1/2 game. Okay. Flop comes Q 9 7. SB bets 75, MP makes it 150, button FLATS with like, 45 behind. SB (probably the only halfway decent player at the table) tanks for like 6 hours and folds... MP puts the button all in in the dark for another $45. Button calls in the dark.

Final board: Q 9 7 6 3

SB folded KK
MP flips up 1010
Button tables Q4 of clubs for the win
