Haha, Hellmuth said if the person who was the underdog when the money went in and they won the pot then it was a bad beat. Interestingly enough several hands later he got his AK in against a PP, then hit his K and the PP rivered trips and he lost his shit.

I'm not absolutely sure I know what this means but this is what I think it is.
Let's say it's a preflop and someone raises the blind and I then call and raise. I'm making 2 bets.

Tell me if I'm right or wrong please.

Edit: oops didn't realize answer was already given. I just scrolled down to read the other posts.

FYI - and I should put this in the poker pet peeves thread - it's not possible to "Call and raise." They are two different actions. A call is a call and a raise is a raise. If you are playing and say, "call," don't expect to be able to raise after that, because you won't be able to.

So many people say this all the time, but you never hear anyone say, "I fold and call."

hmm I know you can't call and raise; I should rephrase that. What I meant to say is I'm betting double; playing as if I were to call and then raise but all in one.

I'm not making sense am I

Wait let me get the quote off someone who explained it much better than I did.


Here ...he explains it much better. I'm just beginning to understand all these terms

This is not the same thing.

What this says is: Bet, Raise, Call. Of course the amount of the call includes the raise (you can't call the first bet but not the second), but there is no such thing as this "call and raise" stuff, and all it does is confuse people who are trying to follow the action as it is described...

Yes bad misuse of the words call and raise; they should never be used together. Thank you for clearing that up. My bad for using those two words together to mean something else.

YES!!! That eneds to be added to my pet peeve list -- equally as annoying as someone saying they raise 50 (when it hasnt been bet yet) is "I call your 50.... and raise you another 50" THAT my friend, is a string bet since you're so eager to call them on me!

That reminds me of one more

"I call you all in"

I dunno where to begin on this one
