Brian was on the right track, but opted for the call (disbelieving QJhh).<br /><br />Villain in this case was actually a genuinely nice guy. I think he plays for the enjoyment of the comradery of the game. He's not worried about money and therefore I was inclined to believe his speech to top off the strong inclination to fold.<br /><br The Poker Meisterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18289059101454598371noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9142521684451555818.post-73271596011882564042013-04-09T08:48:21.179-04:002013-04-09T08:48:21.179-04:00I have the 9h, which complicated the issue.

Old man = nit usually. Speech = strong usually. Talking you out of calling = weak usually. It sounds to me like he also has a flush, but not the nut flush. I'm putting him on something like 10/Jh or J/9h, both of which have you beat. Though I'd really HATE to fold here, I think this is a fold.<br /><br />PatrickPatrickhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05212219823493448661noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9142521684451555818.post-58487709134531664052013-04-09T05:33:24.612-04:002013-04-09T05:33:24.612-04:006c 4d.

I would make a crying call (hoping he doesn't have the bigger flush) You are getting 2.5 to 1 ($100 call to win $256) and I think that there is better than a 50/50 chance he either has a set or smaller flush.<br /><br />In my experience, he almost always has it in this spot but sometimes these old guys are cmitchhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10042498440232473004noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9142521684451555818.post-8086042042711764102013-04-08T13:15:03.214-04:002013-04-08T13:15:03.214-04:00Additional rule: I can't give out the chips i...Additional rule: I can't give out the chips if you're Anonymous.

If so, then I could see a tight old guy doing this with QhJh and checking the flop. He turns the nuts, and (in his mind) value-min-raises, but not enough to scare you off with anything, so that if the Th hits the river, he gets the bonus. When the 6h falls, he still has the nuts.<br /><br />How long did he take to re-raise Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9142521684451555818.post-29169802642821085732013-04-08T11:30:51.221-04:002013-04-08T11:30:51.221-04:00I like contests...lol.
