Suspicious hand

[AAAAK]

I want to post this hand everywhere because it seems very suspicious..........This player that beat me was not an amateur, he knew how to play and won most of the hands he was in. Somebody PLEASE tell me how he could have even been in this hand let alone catch a gut card on the river for the straight.

RECAP:
1ST 3 CARDS: 4s,6s,2s he called the raise to 10, nothing wrong there

4th street : 4s,6s,2s,Kh he calls a $10 bet, ok a little loose but hell maybe he gets the 4th spade on 5th street

5th street : 4s,6s,2s,Kh,Jd he calls a $20 bet............WITH WHAT....NOTHING????

6th street : 4s,6s,2s,Kh,Jd,3d he CALLS a $20 bet??????

River : He got a 5d for the gutshot straight.

Another interesting fact: My credit limit at PP was $6000 (and has been for years) when I played in that game and after posting this on another major internet forum it was dropped to $500 the next day. All coincidences? You decide.

So, basically, you think Dikshit is out to get you. My diagnosis is paranoia. Is it so unlikely that this player simply just sucks at poker.

First of all, you are showing the queen doorcard. His read is that you are high only, with at best rolled queens. On 4th, he is now heads up after the fold behind. He did violate the paint rule on 4th, but your king left him pretty wide open to hit the low heads up and also to catch a lucky hand. His 5th street call was -EV, however, the 2 is not one of his outs for the low. He caught a great card on 6th and wanted to see if he could catch again on the river, with a big pot now. Again, it was -EV for him to call. Your 8 on 6th was an out for him, but he correctly read that it did not help you, based upon your board.

You would have been in a tough spot if the folder on 4th decided to reraise. Heads up in this situation after 4th, I am slowing down, but your bets look ok to me on an EV basis. You need to accept that you will get outdrawn some times, even if you make the correct bets.

[PoorLawyer]

HIT THE LOW? Can you do that in stud high?

[cgrohman]

Dikshit sold his interest in Party. This guy played the hand fairly heniously, but some people just tilt when they bring it in and start chasing their money. This is not by far the worst beat I've seen.

I have played with many players who didn't understand the game well and would play like this. In fact, I love playing with players like that because even if they win, you always know the money will be coming back. But this player knew how to play and wasn't on tilt...... that's what makes this hand so odd to me.

[Grasshopp3r]

nevermind, I thought that it was stud hi/lo.
