my first str flush - a fish pay day



Posted Sun Jan 14, 2007 7:02 am GMT by MrDarling
edit I started this thread to boast with my rivering a str8 flush, but since had a couple of more hands in which I play badly but won loads of money.... /edit

Hand 1:
Villain was very aggressive, raising 3/4 preflop and always a pot cont bet - unless he hit big and slow played.

Felt I had the right odds to call push even if he did have trips - really didn't put him on the hand he had.
could have been funny had we not put all the money in before the river Smile

2 hands after this happen.
This guy is pretty new to the table but he did bet me out of my blind almost every round.
And btw, I know it is an horrible pre flop call

flop call I simply didn't believe him.
By the turn, I thought I had some outs , again put him on the wrong hand. This time my calls are much worse.
I am a fish!!

For some reason I did put Paul on a flush draw, was hoping bigbay to have a weaker K. So I wanted to create a side pot incase the flush come in. Not for one second did I consider a set or even 2 pairs - so yes, I pushed all my money in with TPTK

Hands 4 - same villain

Excellent flop for my K's. Villain stack was maybe too small for me to worry too much about him actually hitting something.
