  2. I think he played it ok. His stack is a little low for my taste to make that play, but he was looking to play that in position and he hit his miracle flop and destacked you. He was priced in preflop.
  3. i personally dont think theres anything wrong w/ his play. you wouldnt be posting this hand if the flop was 932 and you bust him. if he folds the flop he still has 20 BBs
    your raise was very small, giving him odds to call preflop
  4. He obv figured you for an over pair
    hit his 2 pair and reeled you in
  5. you are complaining?

    you want him to make those calls.

    he knows what you have, and can outplay you, or take all your chips when he hits his hand.

    jesus.....
  6. I am not as skilled as pearljammer but I also believe he was stubborn that hand. With such a low stack I dont see the implied odds in making that call.
     
  7. lol, no you don't. The re-raise was ridiculous. You priced him in to beat you.
  8. def raise more pre, let him know he'll be playing for his entire stack if he wants to play this pot.
  9. with that short of a stack if the guy raises 4 times, no way he can call with 2 off cards. Anyone who thinks that raising small you get players playing bad hands you don't. You get players calling with hands that can beat you, you have to play the odds and price them out preflop.
  10. wut he said ^^^
     
  11. That was a horrendous pre flop reraise. You bet like you wanted a call and you got it, he probably put you on QQ-AA and decided for that price he could take you down with a monster flop. Raise more, especially when you know the player you are up against can outplay you post flop.
