Poker is so much less stressful when you can just call down TT on J63hh-5o-3o. Less profitable than being able to fold once check raised on the flop, but less stressful
I probably made this calldown a dozen times, figuring eventually someone would check raise for thin value or on a draw or something. Nope, AJ every time. At one point I was playing in a game w/ MacauBound, rodeo, Mason Malmuth, and some unknown asian kid who turned out to play fine, but after that, it was OL $0.25/$0.50 ridiculousness.
Here's an example of a guy who held over me like crazy:
Someone raises and he cold calls and someone 3 bets, and this reasonable playing kid 4 bets the BTN. Awful steamed up southerner calls BB, 5 ways.
Flop AKx checks through.
Turn J BB bets nemesis calls BTN raises (Reasonable player 4 bet pre, checks AKx MW, raises J turn. JJ? JJ). They call.
River 7 Nemesis x/r and gets called in both spots and shows...77.
Kinda wish reasonable player went for the three bet vs the overcall for maximum soul crush.
