So....After one of the worst weeks I've had in the last year of playing poker online....Here's a little story for you.I'm on the button, and call the blind with J
3
, clearly not a good hand, but with the players I'm sitting with...if I hit my hand...they'll pay me off. The small blind calls, and the bb raises $3 dollars on top of the .50 cent blind. It comes to me, and for whatever the reason, I want to play this hand. I do not normally play on pure emotion, or "hunches", and am usually much tighter. However, I want to play this hand.Flop comes 5
6
8
Nice, a draw instead of top pair, crappy kicker. The bettor throws $5 dollars into the $7.50 pot. I do not have the right odds to call at this point, but the implied odds force me to. He appears to have AA or KK, and will definitely pay me off if I hit my club.Turn....7
BAM!Just turned J3 suited into a J hi flush...and this guy can't be scared out of the pot... He goes all in. $45.50 he throws into the pot with the board having 5
6
7
8
.....this guy has to have 44 or 99 ....what could he have that would warrant a pre-flop raise of 6 times the bb, yet still be an all in hand.....I call..almost instantly, knowing that my hand is the best...at least at this point.River....2
NO! the worst card I can see is a club, even worse than a board pair...since I still really think this guy has AA....and here's the 115 dollar showdown.....He's got A
A
jesus.The club on the turn should have slowed his betting down, in addition to the fact that any 4 or 9 KILLED his hand. At best he had to figure he had 9 outs against my hand going into the river, yet he didn't care. When all was said and done, he had 7 outs, and exactly 15.9% chance of winning the pot. There is absolutely nothing I did wrong in that hand, except play J3 suited...and I got totally screwed by a runner runner nut flush suckout, by a guy who overplayed the hell out of his aces...I'd venture to say he actually bluffed the hand since he couldn't have possibly thought his aces were any good by the turn.I would appreciate feedback, providing it is not of a negative nature.
