Chips: 2,152 | | | Re: Pokerstars $1.2 tournament -- wtf happened on that river!? What I don't get, when you thought you were dead on the turn (for some reason) how would that Jack had helped you?
btw, I would never ever put that guy on a Q.
I would just have bet something like 400 for value on the river, for the case he does have the Queen, he would possible just call and you would still have 500 in chips left.
But according to the topic, all in calls with bottom pair are daily business in these $1 games.

As it is, I dont think Hero has done anything wrong here.
Thanks for pointing out my error deuce  |

think the people that check/call 3 streets w/ AQ are pretty rare.  | | Thread Tools | Search this Thread | | | | | Display Modes | Linear Mode |
