I was playing in a sng on JokerStars when i was dealt pocket nines in the big blind.
There was six of us left...............when i say six of us,i actually mean myself and five donks.........The blinds were 75/150 and i have 1800 chips. A donk(with 3000) limps in first position and the rest fold leaving a pot of 375.Flop is
Ac,9s,10s...I bet 300 and he calls......................Just read somewhere that certain people think poker is 90% luck and 10% skill......Well people who think like that generally manage to get ALL their chips in with the worse hand 90% of the time and NEED to get lucky 90% of the time.....nuff said.
Sorry,ranting a bit..back to the hand. Now i don't like his call and when the jack of spades hits on the turn i like it even less. Now,what is he holding? Well i put him on a draw which narrows his hands down alot. Flush draw? If he was sitting with the ace x of spades he would have re raised me on the flop,same applies to a set of aces or 10s for that matter,so he could be holding a hand like 78,JQ or the worse scenario is 7,8 of spades or kq of spades..maybe he has a hand like king 8 of spades?
This lad had sucked out with a horrible flop call with 10s of an all in by a lad holding aces and he rivered a 10 earlier so that was the only info i had on him other than he had called a couple of pre flop raises after limping but had not shown these hands.
I bet 500 and he calls again and the river is an ace which now gives me the full house and at this point i typed into the chatbox...king queen of spades? but no reply...crap...i bet 400 and he re raises all in..i have to call now and he shows the king queen of spades..................................SSSSSSSSSSSSHHHHHHHHIIIIIIIITTTTTTTTTT!!!!!
Another hand or two that were possible for donks here were JQ or KJ with the Q or K being spades but the KJ was unlikely.So he had limped with KQ in first position and managed to end up with straight flush.....Great....What a lucky plonker But at least he got the rest of his chips in with best hand....TWAT...Let me know how you would have played this please and make sure you agree with my play as 90% of the time i am right.

I would say your %90 right %50 of the time with a %25 chance of of your %90 being %100 correct ...... EH WTF am I going on about!
ReplyDeleteeverythings %50,, its either right or wrong :-)
I think if you raise pre flop he calls and all the money goes in on the flop. you lose either way. Unlucky
ReplyDeleteyour not wrong mate,either way..50% of the time!!!
ReplyDeleteI probably would've shoved pre-flop given that you only have 12BB unless I was particularly suspicious about his limp UTG, I find poker tracker HUD stats v.useful. Having said that I am paying off the possibilty of a str8 flush there every time, ul.
ReplyDeleteThis hand would have played out the same had i shoved against this player dapperdanman.If he limps in 1st position with kq and the fact that he had limped and called raises previously i believe that if i shove,he calls.Thanks for the reply and your take on the hand.much appreciated.
