I've pushed villian off two pots where I lucked out and turned trips, 3rd time is a charm to get him or go broke. He's calling nearly every flop and betting alot too.

That river bet came out of nowhere but he was calling fast too. I'm kind of sick as I really think he's got a hand... I also feel like I'm likely to hold the best hand but what can I beat?

Wow, I have absolutely no idea what kind of hand this guy might have, but I think your hand might be too good to fold. Top pair or a missed-draw bluff seem too big of candidates to convince me I'm beat.

With your read on him, it would be hard to let that hand go.

BTW, the guy has 10K chips in level 2? Is this a re-buy?

Unless he limped in with 66 (highly possible for some players) then I don't see how you could be beat here. My guess is he hit two pair or maybe limped with AJ and thinks he is king of cool and good poker players. Make the call and suck some chips of this muckhead.

um, he thinks you have a jack, he prolly has Ax of clubs. Hes using the scare of the 2 7s to cover his bluff of a missed flush.

No rebuy...
He started with about 3k when I got on the table, he then started sucking out on everyone when he wouldn't fold. Action player who doesn't know when to stop, thinks he needs to win every pot...



I decided to call because my hand was too good to let go of and this was a good chance to double up or go out.

He showed 7,3 and the table went to town on him verbally as I doubled up. Seems nearly everyone on the table had grown to hate him and was waiting for someone to crack him good to rub it in.

I finished 34th out of 1500+, inching closer and closer to the FT. Last hand A,4 ran down my pocket queens we got it in preflop and he flopped the wheel on me.
