Default KK cracked at 100/200 stars. No problem just surprised!!!




I play a lot of poker and am not a huge huge winner (as in the 100's of thousands that some online players claim to make) but I do well out of it. I mainly play around the 30/60 50/100 level but sometimes play much bigger- normally when losing to be honest!!!
In this instance i've had a bad 24hr session, I don't tilt as in starting spewing but maybe in this case i'm playing slightly more passively than is optimal due to very shaken confidence.
Maybe some will criticize this post for being a fairly uninteresting hand, maybe i played it badly, maybe i would have lost more if i'd played it better but either way i was surprised to see the cards this guy flipped over. Pre-flop and on the flop what could he have been hoping for in a multiway pot. Flopping a Ace loses him a big pot most times as does turning 2-pair......

He coldcalls A3o in the SB. Play him a long time and take his money down and be happy!

Preflop is just an optimistic and bad call.

Postflop he played it perfect.

I disagree, the flop call is just as bad as the preflop call. When he calls on the flop the hand is still 4 way and goes on to become 5 way. What is he hoping to walk into. The risk reward is so out of line, in my view he's calling only to hit another 3. The ace most times is a big loser for him. I could have qq jj or aa aq aj so easily and what about all the other callers k10 lurking? Ace of diamonds could be a bad card also.

He is getting 13-1 to call flop, 14-1 including the guy behind him. He only needs like ~3.5 outs to make the call. Another 3 is very likely to be good - 2 outs. He also has the ace of diamonds. Good call.

I call BS on anyone even hinting that they would fold bottom pair+backdoor nut flush+overcard getting 13-1. 3 cold callers here? I gotta play at PS more.

Highstakespro I agree with you. You are dead (save running quads) way too often here. 5 way on a 3-J-Q board. KT, AQ, AJ, diamonds, redraw after hitting an ace (even if it is good). If you like high variancve and more frequent losing sessions, call. I would not call this. I used to call this before my win rate has increased and leveled off at its current, higher # of BB/100.

Having said all that.... I would have folded it pre flop
