  1. Is this just a cooler that everyone goes broke with, or is there some way I could've gotten off of this hand? Not looking for sympathy, just opinions on what (If any) I should've done differently. Thanks.

  3. lol sam nice one but as fer the hand cooler
  4. the almost min raise has to tell you something.

    Donks dont make that minraise without the nuts or second nuts. (worst case with a set)

    Worst case you could have smooth called and a club in the river might have saved you your last chips.
  5. "Donks dont make that minraise without the nuts or second nuts. (worst case with a set)"

    One of the very basic but very accurate observations I've come upon while playing all the micro idiots in the 45 man sngs is, "if they min raise... I'm beat!" Trust me, the "min raise with the nuts" is used by plenty of fuckin donkeys.
