Sorry, this is my second dumb post of the day, but I love this hand. I've been hunting for a legitimate reason to do this for a LONG time, but, as far as I can recall (remember, I'm a drunk), the opportunity has never reared it's beautiful, perfect, head.

So, without further ado, the LEGIT- the one and only- TREBLE CHECK-RAISE (TCR) BITCHES!

Party Poker 5/10 Hold'em (9 handed) FTR converter on zerodivide.cx

Preflop: Hero is BB with [5h], [Ah].
5 folds, Hero calls.

Easy blind defense with a suited ace and an aggressive player

Flop: (4.33 SB) [Jd], [Ad], [8c] (2 players)
Hero checks, CO bets, Hero calls.

Not a good flop to wait for the turn. Iceman check-raises with top-pair, but gets 3-bet. Better ace? Big draw? Let's see a turn.

Turn: (5.16 BB) [5s] (2 players)
Hero checks, CO bets, Hero calls.

Oooh, that's one of my 2 bombercards. Iceman check-raises again, and gets three-bet; the crowd goes silent. This, my friends, is where legends are made, stories for the ages.

River: (11.16 BB) [5c] (2 players)
Hero checks, CO bets, CO folds.

"I'd just like, uh, to thank my family... all the people who believed in me, my friends, fellow posters at FCP, and especially the fucking donkey who made it all possible. And to all those who doubted me, who said, 'It can't be done!' To you, I say... I did it! Don't give up; don't ever give up!"

Final Pot: 14.16 BB


Yes, I realize I am probably the biggest dork on the planet, and, no: it doesn't bother me.

well done !

you did not show right ?

let him be baffled.
I would be.

You play good for a drunk.

I woulda lead river; but you get more style points.

Checkraising every street, can't say i've had the chance to do that ever, guy must have really been baffled.

Oddly enough pretty recently I played a very similar hand in which i was checkraised on every street on a similar board. AQx flop I had QQ, opponent had A9 and caught runner 9s and checkraised me on ever street.

Kind of confused as far as what he would play that way, guessing he majorly overplayed some hand like KQd as nothing else makes sense,

Yeah, he had to have some combination of diamonds and Kings, Queens, nines, and tens giving him a gutshot/open-ender w/a flush draw.

If I hadn't been reasonably certain my opponent sucked, and if I hadn't been searching for my WhiteWhale for thousands of hands, I would have probably check-called the river, as he played the hand kind of like a set.

It's awesome when you get check-raised on every street when he's drawing to runner-runner/2 outs...

This hand has a much better ending than the triple bluff raise.

Ditto.

The triple check/raise. Very sexy.
