Bdawg31 vs Penguinfan worst luck battle!!!!!

The problem is you allowed him to put 1/2 his stack in, so when u push after that it's kinda odd since you expect to be called. Do you have the best hand? you possibly do, otherwise you have 6 outs (overs)

I don't hate your play actually (the idea behind it), but it's not ideal in this situationbc of how large of a bet he made and its obvious that he's committed

On a side note Brian you have to play a bit of level 2 poker, you cant jus look at your own cards otherwise aware opponents will steal a large percent of pots from you simply by playing back. In addition you say you WOULDN'T play an overpair like that -- that is the beauty of playing it that way then isn't it? Switching up your game is very important.

yea I agree that switching up your play is very important but this really does look like a bluff to me. But with that board it is a bad play with AQ plain and simple there are sooo many draws out right now and I dont want to semi/bluff here with AQ, because honestly it is a bluff because you have to put your opponent on total rags that didnt hit to make that play correct?

truth is the guy had a great draw and made a pretty simple call seeing as he had soo much in pot and still had like 2k or so behind if he lost here.

with as many draws out your right I might of pushed with overpair

I just wanted to add here zybomb,


I make plays like this but I pick my spots very carefully. The thing is I have to have a pretty good read on the player and figure he would lay down a hand to me. I mean im not going to make this play against a weak player seeing as I would expect a call but against a strong player im commiting them to pot and hoping they dont hit something.

so lets put it this way.

against you im just continuation betting with my overpair
againt eejit im going all in.

just kidding eejit
actully im not
