Yep.

Before the flop, not too bad. After the flop it would be -EV, methinks.

That sucks.

had you called the flop would be different, so dont worry. but im sure you know that Laughing

You should probably quit playing.

Doh! Shocked
Still a good fold preflop though. Sucks the board did that to you. Couldn't they at least have been all hearts or something? Very Mad

The EV was not +1. Therefore you must fold. Laughing

Seriously though, I don't think this is where you want to put in that much more money.

I think you made the right decision.

Good fold, bad flop Razz Sucks laying down a winning had (Winning monster hand) But the cards can slap you in the face, even when their dead Razz

It’s also risky to bet the idiot end of the royal flush...Smile

It's a good fold. Risking your chip lead against second chip leader with a marginal hand, you made a good fold. A raise of 200-300, I would've probably called, but not 585.

Same thing happened to me, so I know how you feel. I had AJs. Two people started raising/reraising each other, and went all-in so I folded. Thing is, they had A7 vs. K9, I had a slight advantage preflop, and certainly leading after the flop when it gave me the royal.

Ouch Sad

Good fold though for sure. How often are you gonna get a flop like that with that hand?

Good point. I'm not sure how much heat that hand could stand up to if it got a lot of action on the flop. I'd be concerned about the 2 Club 3 Club wrap-around straight flush.

Doesnt the J10 letter/number combo eliminate the wrap straight and bring us back to +1 EV?


Posted Wed Mar 01, 2006 1:45 pm GMT by BeerWench13
The 10 doesn't count as a number as it can be represented by the letter T. Sorry to burst you bubble.

I hope if any newbies read this that they can sense the sarcasm. It would be terrible to think we've led them astray with a wrap-around.
