Sorry - Absolute doesnt seem to be working with the converter. I have taken out a bunch of useless info.

Stage #143571853: Holdem Normal $0.50/$1
ROCKETWAD - Pocket [9c,9h]
ROCKETWAD - Calls $0.50 (I am UTG)
SNAP2000 - Raises $0.50 to $1 (MP+1)
3DRAGONS_FL - Calls $1 (Button)
JAGURE - All-In (Timeout) (BB)
ROCKETWAD - Calls $0.50 (me again)

I don't like to raise nines UTG. Personal preference. Especially when I have just sat down.

FLOP [6c,5h,5d]

ROCKETWAD - Checks
SNAP2000 - Bets $0.50
3DRAGONS_FL - Calls $0.50
ROCKETWAD - Raises $0.50 to $1
SNAP2000 - Calls $0.50
3DRAGONS_FL - Calls $0.50

Check-raise with a pretty good hand here, plus I will get an idea of what the pre-flop raiser has.

TURN [6c,5h,5d,Ks]

ROCKETWAD - Bets $1
SNAP2000 - Calls $1
3DRAGONS_FL - Folds

Hmmm. Just a call to my lead-out bet with the king showing. No ace king for that guy (unless its a trap), or any king for that matter me thinks.

RIVER [6c,5h,5d,Ks,2s]

ROCKETWAD - Bets $1
SNAP2000 - Calls $1

Still bet here?

SHOW DOWN
ROCKETWAD - Show cards [9c,9h]
SNAP2000 - Show cards [Js,Jd]


RESULT Total Pot($10.75:$2.25,$8.50) Rake ($0.50) Board [6c,5h,5d,Ks,2s]

Results don't matter (I have finally come to accept it), but wanted to save time when people ask "so what did he have".

So, you agree with betting out on the turn and river like I did?

From my semi-educated knowledge, I do. The guy was just super passive about raising you anywhere. Who knows what he may be calling you down with in this hand. You had the lead, kept it and he NEVER tried to take it away.
You can't look at the fact that you lost the hand b/c the guy never gave you a clue to his hand. (I looked at the results, sorry). He may have put you on an overpair? WHo knows? But he was super passive i nthe hand, and just b/c a King popped up, doesn't mean you should stop betting. He may have folded on the end for that last bet, who knows.
Personally I probably woulda played the hand the same way and woulda had the same result. Although, I might raised UTG to give the impression of a stonger hand though, this may induce a fold from him more often on the end too.

Standard standard standard. Don't ever check that turn.

STOP POSTING RESULTS. It makes it harder to analyze the hand. Okay? Just stop doing it.

The only way it is harder to analyze is if you go and read those tiny little letters. Just stop doing THAT...lol
:wink:

Thanks for the input on the hand in question.
