Outrageous plays!

Ok, lately there has been alot of heeing and hawing over good folds, getting outdrawn and 'do I have the best hand here' in no limit hands. How boring is that! In NL, we don't need no stinking best hands!

Now I want to hear stories of outrageus bluffs,shoves vs nits and how you won a gigantic pot with 6 high and put a squeeze on two TAGs with a 3rd shove over a bet/re-raise repping three tens.

So let's hear em! :D

Theres a reason that doesnt happen often. For example: TAG has QQ and you have some junk preflop and you call his raise. Flop comes out an ace. He bets and you raise him. He check calls the rest of the way down (bad play on his part). People get married to big pairs which is why bluffing people is generally not gonna happen.

It happens all the time.

Why are you trying to bluff a tag when an ace flops when there has only been a single preflop raise?

Yes, a check/call to see if he slows down on turn is probably better.

Not necessarily a bad play at all.

Bluff someone else.
