Im playing a spot of Stud on Stars this morning. Im taking business calls and doing some paperwork so im milling around in a couple of micro limit games. 0.04/0.08 limit with a .01 ante. (pretending that im Smash :shock: ) I've taken my .50c buy in to over $6 and its fish central.If only the $4/$8 game was this loose. Anyway, I have 3 10's showing. And have 8's in the hole by the time 6th street is dealt.. Im capping everything and I have two callers/raisers. Both seem to have flush draws or even already hold one.Anyway all the cards are dealt and I come out betting. The first player folds. OK he missed his draw. Next player raises. I think OK he made his flush draw and has an A showing so its a nut flush. I re raise. He raises that and I call. So I get to see his hand.HE HAD MISSED THE FLUSH DRAW AND HAD RAISED WITH 2 PAIR.Why did he keep going knowing that I had been capping every street and wasnt going stop. When he could even see I had him beat with 3x 10's never mind my boat. Did he really think I would lay down the hand with his raises hoping I only had the 10's showing and I would fold to his possible flush? Or is this just ultimate fish play? Im voting it as the most stupid play I have ever seen!Have you seen worse? What do you make of this?

haha i'd have to agree with you. however, i'm not sure what's stupider, chasing the flush against a paired board on 5th, tripped on 6th, or capping it on 7th after you three-bet him, in hopes of making you fold.i think the last one gets the prize. :-) aseem
