Man oh man, was I tilted after this. Ruined my f*ck night.

$3/$6 Hold'em. I'm in Seat 9 with the button.

Seat 10 has the small blind.
Seat 1 has the big blind.
Seat 2 makes it a live $6.
Seat 3 folds.
Seat 4 calls $6.
Seat 5 folds.
Seat 6 folds.
Seat 7 folds.
Seat 8 folds.
Seat 9 (Hero) is dealt A Spade A Heart . Hero raises to $9.
Seat 10 (SB) folds.
Seat 1 (BB) folds.
Seat 2 re-raises to $12 blind.
Seat 4 calls.
Hero caps at $15.
Seat 2 calls.
Seat 4 calls.

Pot: $49. $45 after $4 rake is taken.


Flop: A Diamond 8 Club 5 Heart

Seat 2 checks.
Seat 4 checks.
Hero bets $3
Seat 2 calls.
Seat 4 calls.

Pot: $58


Turn: Q Club

Seat 2 checks.
Seat 4 checks.
Hero bets $6.
Seat 2 raises to $12 (Sweeeeeet!).
Seat 4 thinks, then re-raises to $18 (Sweeter, but I wish she would fold).
Hero caps the betting at $24.
Seat 2 calls.
Seat 4 calls.

Pot: $130


River: 2 Club No way...

Seat 2 checks.
Seat 4 bets.
Hero grudgingly calls.
Seat 2 calls.


Seat 2 shows Q Heart 8 Spade Two pair, Queens and Eights.
Seat 4 shows J Club 10 Club Flush, Queen high.
Seat 4 wins $148 with a flush, Queen high.




That hurt so bad. Why in the hell would you get involved in a capped pot with JT, then why would you call on the flop with absolutely nothing? I can possibly see calling on the turn with a good draw and such HUGE odds, but why in the hell would you re-raise two people who obviously have a strong interest in the hand? I just about lost it, because the woman in seat 4 had no f*cking clue what she was doing. But, I guess she and Seat 2 came to "gamble."

Yea, supposedly the fish make us money in the long run....that is, if they don't bankrupt us in the short run...

Amazingly seat four was correct to call on the flop. She had 7.2% equity, and was getting good numbers to call one. Sorry, I just had to point that out. Laughing

A very tough beat for sure.
