Any one get the subtitle reference?


Villain is super donkish, but really aggressive, but stupid at the same time. I have seen him shut down and not c-bet quite a few times, and I assumed he was on Broadway cards and whiffed. That is why I bet the flop.

Full Tilt No-Limit Hold'em, $0.25 BB (6 handed) Full-Tilt Converter Tool from FlopTurnRiver.com (Format: FlopTurnRiver Cards)

SB ($28.30)
BB ($118.35)
Hero ($32.10)
MP ($25)
CO ($24.65)
Button ($13.10)

Preflop: Hero is UTG with , .
Hero raises to $0.85, 3 folds, SB raises to $2.9, 1 fold, Hero calls $1.95.

Flop: ($5.95) , , (2 players)
SB checks, Hero bets $3.75, SB calls $3.75.

Turn: ($13.45) (2 players)
SB bets $9, Hero...

There's like no way we are ahead here and/or can get him to fold, right?

Thanks.

You figure him for a draw, so I like that you made that bitch pay on the turn.


An e-mail from my dad, who is a weekend online super low limit, only for fun player:
"Hey Bud,
What is a "donk"?
I was small blind, had 2 and 3 off suit, with a 100 raise. I called.
Flop was 5, 2, 2. They raised, so I came over the top. We ended up all in and I won.
He asked my how I could call a $100 with a 2 & a 3. My reply was "just hit the call key". I think I ticked them off.
What do you think? That is when he called me a "donk".
Love you
Dad"

Dear StilettoNole,

Fold preflop. T9s is a bad hand to call reraises with unless stacks are very deep and/or you have a very narrow range of hands to put your opponent on.

I would not bet this flop since he is trapping way more than he misses usually. The turn is an easy fold.

Best of luck,

AK

Yea, don't even get cute with these hands with only one opponent, especially at 25 NL. The PF raise is ok, but You should have folded after the raise.

I don't get the reference unless you're talking about the Nirvana song but I have a feeling that mentioning Nirvana makes me sound old these days.

I don't open with T9s UTG.
If I mis-click and open with T9s UTG I don't call the re-raise.
If I mis-click and do call the re-raise I don't bet this flop.
If I mis-click and do call this flop I insta-fold the turn.

I don't get the reference, which leads me to believe this is a fold.

Also, the information I'm given on every street leads me to believe you should fold that street... except for the flop... you can check it... but I'd still prefer a fold because you're going to looose
