Ewwwww... that's sickening.I like the first call, pot is big enough, even to overcall, and we could easily be ahead here.The repop is like a WTF type move... like how does he not bet that river with a hand that beats you? He can't possibly assume it'll be bet behind him, can he? I probably call out of pure confusion, although button calling before us makes it a fold, in theory, probably... I dunno. Ghey spot.

And the guy that bet the river ended up folding to the raise. Weirdest hand ever, Ill have to post results on this one later.

I have to call getting 21:1Button might have KQ, AK UTG could have 9I mean who knows?pots/hands like this, I just won't fold for 1 BB, call it a leak

This probably IS a leak, but I often call in these situations KNOWING I'm beat, because it's cheaper to pay and lose 99 times out of a 100 than it is to fold and go on tilt for about 3 weeks. I believe Smash- fucking prick- used to refer to this as reverse implied tilt odds. That's the only concept of his I've ever taken to heart. I'm willing to leak off a bet or two here and there if it means I won't start playing poorly until I'm broke.Wang

wtf does "tendencey" to do so imply/meanIt's what I tend to do into multiway fields oop if I've been doing it so far.Does it mean I do it >50% of the time? Not necessarily; but it was meant to imply I tend to do it more than I might recommend doing it in hindsight.Although, here, it still seems plausibleYou can't get all that implication from that post?geezsh.I'm hungry.Miss Myra Bar-b-Que is on the way
