    I'm pretty sure this was an easier call than it looks, especially because I made the call without a pair, but a lot of people laughed at the table when I made it. Can anyone back me up here? I put my opponent on TJ or a busted flush. Props to me.

    Really not loving calling off another $7.55 with A-Q high. Let him take this one off you, and nail him when he tries to do it again and you have the nuts.

    However, from how the hand went, I can see why you thought he was mega weak. You look like an idiot next time, mind, when he shows up with A-4 clubs instead. Good advertisement though, you now look like a station who will call ANYTHING.

    Don't do it too often at 0.10/0.25, but nice call here.

    Here's the prtoblem as I see it... you made a great call and got rewarded this time. What happens next time and the next when you are wrong? Playing like this is a MINUS EV play in the long run.
    Most of tghe time, when someone makes a read and calls like this, they think they can do it every time and stack off time and time again. Consider yourself luck this time and learn from this.
