But the guy who took you should not have shown his cards, what an idiot
How else was he supposed to win the main pot against the guy who went all in pre-flop?
This reminds me of a time I was playing just for fun with a few of my boys, most of them are horrible, but my friend took the cake for dumbest decision of all time. #1 is short-stacked so he limps in. I have AK so I raise. #3 calls. #1 re-raises a bit more and is all-in, me and #3 call. Flop is 8-8-J. #1 sees the flop and yells out "YES...I WON...and flips over pocket 8s".
There is no sidepot, so I just check, #3 checks. Turn is a blank, I check, my friend checks. River comes, I check, my friend bets half the pot. There was no sidepot, we already knew 100% that #1 had won the pot with his Quad-8s, yet my friend #3 bets the river anyways. I obviously fold, and dude turns over A-10 like it meant something
Started with 20 and left with 65. Like you're an ESPN regular yourself.
And please don't compare your story with mine. That is utter stupidity on what he did. Betting on the river and other dude showing his quads after the flop. We all had nothing on the community.
Buddy, my point is that you did not get outplayed, and the hand you described was not unusual...you just completely misplayed it. I'm no pokerpro myself, but from the way you described it, I can tell you are still a very inexperienced player. You made way too many mistakes in that one hand alone.First, you should've either went all in or folded pre-flop after the re-raising had happened. On the flop, why even call with ace-high? Your opponent gaveup on the turn, but you checked behind him. Finally, he bets on the river and you still dont have anything, your only move was to fold, you showed 3 signs ofweaknesses (pre, on the flop, on the turn) to pull off a bluff in this situation.
