Knowing how to read the board does help in holdem :)Could be worse, you could have had J2 on a flop of J55 then a turn 2 and bet thinking you had two pair and have been called by AJ.

I have this program and i played with it and it's unbeliveble, not all the cards are precised but enought to win a hand withouth to see the floop.


Fold, fool, fold!

i always seem to mess this up especially when i'm tired

was playing a heads up match yesterday and had J5

opponent raises pre flop small

flop J 22

he bets out I raise he calls

turn is a 5 and with two pair i go all hoping he has AJ or something of course immediately realizing that with the two 2's on the board if he has an overpair I'm totally screwed

he pauses forever calls time -finally folds maybe thinking i had a 2 or something

nevertheless i must stop falling for this

Waaaaay back a long time ago, like probably last year, I was in a situation like that.

I'm on BB with KQ, UTG limped. No one else in pot.
Flop K55
I bet, he calls
Turn Q
I bet, he calls
River is a blank
I make a big bet
He tanks for a bit, then calls
He shows AA

HAHAHAHA! I've got KQ! I wi... Oh, I suck.

I wish the OP would stop making these threads.

*edit*

If he has Queens, Kings, or Aces...sure...

Are you really putting him on this?

You would be fairly silly to not bet here.

J5 beats AJ on a J225 board by the way.
