    any 2 cards.
    that,s why i stopped playing cash,
    it,s absolute garbage.

    one nite playing n/l  5/10p

    i went all-in pre flop 7 times
    with qqx3
    kkx2
    aax2
    and lost every hand
    pluss £70+

    now playing dym
    and loving it
    had kk the other day
    called an all-in,obviously had aa
    lost £3.30
    won the session though £22.50 i think from memory

    good luck buddy

    He must have thought you were bluffing on the button, 4x raise!!

    Surely  9 4 soooted is good here!!!

    It just doesn`t surprise me anymore,

    UL and run better.

    just forget that hand and look for him next time you play by the looks of it you'll get your money back plus more, im guessing hes a calling station so make it expensive for him to see the flop

    It happens and it hurts but there are loads of any 2 suited merchants at ALL levels on the site. With a paired board you are only beating a bluff or an underpair when he shoves so the call is -EV. Just one to take on the chin and move on. I've played with you and you're a decent player and gonna be ahead of the villain in profits long term all day long!!!

    Sammy Farha wud do this all day long, do we assume hes a donkey, or has reasoning/plan in the hand.  Yeap its total spew, but mayb he had a plan, intending to get creative post vs you, but flopped hot instead.

    think we often just assume ppl are idiots when theres sometimes alot more going on.

    its clearly bad in isolation, but maybe the player was.  I'm pretty aggro in cash, to set up my action.  ill play 46 same as AK if mood strikes.  range balancing etc.

    So when somebody shoves over our continuation bet when we are holding JJ on a 5 9 9 board we are to assume they hold pocket 10's or under or pure air are we? Basically we are to assume the villain is a moron. I struggle to believe that is your actual viewpoint as despite the misleading nickname you are one of the tightest players on this site.
