CavemanDoctor 0 Posted March 28, 2005 Share Posted March 28, 2005 Really, you shouldn't be complaining. Be damn happy you got to split the pot.AA getting screwed is when you go up against KK and the river gives the other person a set. Not that I'm speaking from experience or anything.

Like I said with my edit, like many other people, I've had AA cracked and lost the entire pot more than just once or twice. I don't see splitting the pot as getting screwed having gone through the aforementioned experience. Different strokes. Link to post Share on other sites
Emptyeye 0 Posted March 28, 2005 Share Posted March 28, 2005 Here's an interesting thought: Why not fire at the river one more time?Granted, any reasonable player is (Correctly) going to say "What the hell could you have that includes a seven that you would play that aggressively?" and call you, but if you're confident enough HE doesn't have a seven, it's a gamble worth taking IMO. People are silly sometimes, and it's surprising what they'll fold to if you give them the opportunity.That said, given the texture of the board, I wouldn't have been at all surprised if the clown had made a straight before the river and that 5 was actually your saving grace.

rollito 0 Posted March 28, 2005 Share Posted March 28, 2005 yup..sucks to split that pot.....but why not take a shot at the river.....you could be reasonably certain he doesnt have a 7 so he prob calls you but its basically a free roll to take one more shot at it at the river......dn wrote about a pot he took from a guy when the board made a straight he flipped his hand up and said striaght instead of i play the board and he won the pot.....i know this example wouldn't work on the internet but a bet might make him fold Link to post Share on other sites
