I laughed and didn't feel a twinge of remorse for this one

Nice raise w/ the DN on the button... he'd be proud.

And good work flopping second nuts. Always nice to bust the "min-raising-donkeys" when they misplay a big hand, and can't let go.

go you sir, go you.

I think min raising preflop is one of the worst plays ever in NL

nh but what ugly turn and river cards. yuck

Yeah, spade, then board pair. Eh!

I seriously laugh to myself with stuff like this happens. You raise with a suited connector in LP (say to $4) and then the SB makes it $7.50 total. I laugh, happily call, and completely crap on their AA when I flop two pair.

I've used the min. raise in medium/big pots on the turn/river more often lately. But something I will never do, nor ever advocate, is a min. raise preflop. It's horrible, awful, no-good, very bad poker.

GH.

LOL. That happened to me in a 5/10 shorthanded game. I made it 30 preflop from the button with KsJs and the BB made it 50. He did that all night. This hand, the flop came KJJ, so I stuck it and he called off all his money with AA.

I will take any flop with any two cards in this situation and must admit, it's my favorite feeling to crack those aces.
