I had been waiting to stack that last guy for a while ... whats up with these 50NL players calling with really weird hands? Yesterday I raised PF with aces, flop was A10x, BB checked, I checked, turn blank, He bets small I call, river 9 he bets $7 or so, I raise to $25 and he calls with Jack 9? It's working for me ... thats for sure.

I though this kind of sophisticated play was only done in $10NL -
I can understand c/r with a gut draw but calling a hugh over bet allin? How dumb can you be?!

Have seen players call allin with 23s, T7o etc.. but thought that was restricted to the micro levels.

Well, good for you. You were due
