So i was playing my usual 25 cent/50 cent no limit game, when towards the end, after i hadn't seen a hand in at least 1/2 an hour, i got dealth JJ.

I raised it 4 dollars on the button. Both blinds called.

The Flop Came 10 3 5 rainbow. I bet out 3. Small raised me all in 2. 50, big called, and here is where if anything i made my mistake i raised big blind another 3. He called.

Turn came another 5. I checked, he put me all in for another 3. Now be4 i called i was just thinking to myself, wtf could he have that would be worth calling 4 dolalrs pre flop. I doubt he had pocket 3's, or 5's. The only real thing i could put him on was a A 10, or maybe K 10.

I called it, and was a bit surprised to c that the bastard had called a 4 dollar bet with a 3 5. Yup a 3 5. I Bet 8 times the blind annd he called me with a 3 5. River came a 3, to actually giv him 2 boats.

Now i was jsut shocked at this point. I just couldn't comprehend him doing this. Maybe if he was the better ok, but wat was he trying to do??? Bluff me by calling me???

That was just a bad beat. That angered me and i had to rant. So ya.

Some people are stubborn with their big blind. Until recently I was one of those people. You always knew with me I'd call up to 5 times the big blind with damn near anything, so if the flop came rags, you had to wonder what I had.


I don't do it as much anymore, but it only takes a few times to really break a player. I've called up to 5 times in the BB in the dark before.
