What makes you think he's not Sufi, Hindu, or Pastafarian?

2-7 showdown, #5 vs #2 vs #1. After hand I ask of its a kill..." No pot was to small" (needs to be 5 big bets).

I'll bite. #2 and #1 were all in for less than 1 big bet, while 2 other guys each drew 3, 3, 3, one of whom made #5.

Third draw went 1-pat-pat and all players had a least a rack behind

Someone is new to the game and said "is 2, 3, 4, 5, 7 a good hand?".

i envision the #5 being in position and making some kind of freezeplay then not vbetting river when checked to. the few times ive played live deuce, funplayers love doing this with basically any 8.

the best is when the oop turn bettor has #1 and checks to c/r cuz of the freeze and then whiffs the c/r, lol.

nah, taking the shuttle from downtown too much of a hassle, i've more or less given up on hammond. just not worth it if you dont have a car, and you dont need a car in chicago. also i think that game runs wednesday and friday and traffic is extra pain added on top. nothing interesting runs on the weekends there unfortunately.

Perhaps too much content:

Hustler 25/50 around 3 AM. I open in the CO five handed and a very laggy Korean man 3bets. Blinds fold, I call. My image is LAG and terrible.

Flop Q46 one club. I check/call.

Turn Ac. I check he checks.

River 6h. I check he bets. What's the worst hand you call here?

I don't think many people 3 bet 10 hi, don't bluff the A turn and then decide to bluff complete brick River

Most people don't have a lot of bluffs when they check back that turn. If they had bluffs they would have bluffed on the turn. Unless they are good.
