The A**hole Card thread (LC)

[James.]

a hand in which i spew:

the shoe in tunica

limpers to me, i check the blind with A8o.

Flop: J85r

check, i bet, one call, sb c/r, i call, limper calls.

Turn: 8

sb leads, i raise, limper folds, sb 3bet, i call.

River: x

sb checks, i bet, sb c/r me like a freakin expert, i call like the fish i am. sb shows 55. i look the fool, good thing i'm heavily sedated. i lose 4bb after the a$$hole card hits. i doubt i call, much less raise, many other turns.

The dreaded turn and river combo, wherein you make the temporary nuts on the turn and lose on the river:

A bunch of limpers, small blind calls, I knuckle with T-9o in the BB. Flop comes 9-8-7 with one spade. Small blind bets, I raise, one cold-callers, sb calls. Turn is the jack of spades. Small blind checks, I bet, cold-caller folds, small blind calls. River a 3rd spade. Small blind checks, I bet, small blind calls, I proudly show my straight, and he turns over Qs-2s for the rivered flush. I particularly like this one because the winner bet his Q-9-8-7-2 and check-called his flush.

NL game and I overlimp couple of limpers with 44, 6 to AQJ flop and it's checked around. Turn is a 4 and a lose a huge pot to KT...

this is another tendency i see all the time people love to spew chips when they dont have anything then slowdown when they actually make a hand

Last night Comm 20, Drunken Asian Mike opens UTG with 65hh, claims he has 22 and is 3-bet by a laggy CO with AQhh. Mike Calls.

Flop: Ks 7h 3h....4 bets go in....at this point I put Mike squarely on 33

Turn: 8h... 5 bets go in

River: 4h.... 6 bets....AQhh is all-in and would still be raising right now if he had the money.

guy posts utg+1 and checks his option, HJ limps, CO limps, i check Qs3s in the bb

flop is 9s7s2d
i check, utg+1 bets, HJ calls, CO calls, i call

turn Qh
i check, utg+1 bets, HJ folds, CO calls, i c/r, utg+1 3-bets, CO calls, i call

river 4s
i bet, utg+1 calls, CO raises, i call, utg+1 calls

CO shows his As6s, i muck, utg+1 shows his 22 to try to get sympathy from the table. a**hole carded on both the turn and river

Meh, just to be nitty -- not really an a**hole card because although it killed AQ's hand, he already had the nuts on the turn. The river didn't improve his hand; in fact it deteriorated it because now he only has the second nuts.

20/40 Borgata...

Folds to me in the cutoff and I raise T9dd.. SB is unknown villain who calls as does BB.

Flop comes 9 7 3. Checked to me I bet, they both call.

Turn is the 6 . Checked to me I bet, only SB calls.

River is the 8. Villain donks, I raise, he 3-bets... I cry-call to see his JTos.. nice ******* river card costing me a few extra BBs..

[Fianchetto]

100/200 live game.

Villian open raises, I 3-bet w/ AJs and get 4-bet by original raiser. heads up. Of course he has AA.

A$$hole card #1 is the Ace that comes on the flop. Why flop an ace? There's only one left, and if I don't flop a pair I get away cheap.

Flop: A 3 6r,

He bets, I raise, he 3-bets, I call.

A$$hole card #2 is the jack on the turn. Just cruel.

Turn: J

He bets, I raise, He 3-bets, I call.

River: deuce of purple horseshoes.

He bets, I cry and call.

=========

Also is there such a thing as an A$$hole flop?

100/200 4-handed aggro live game.

CO opens , I 3-bet from the SB w/ 88, BB calls , CO calls. 3 handed.

Flop: 899

I lead/3-bet after CO raises. Still 3 ways.

Turn: 7

It gets capped still 3 ways with CO and I driving the action.

River: 6

I lead, BB calls, CO raises, I call, now BB back raises ( he had been calling the whole way, never raising). CO calls, I call.

CO: 97
BB: 98
me: third place

Lovely. Flop a boat and put in about 1700 drawing dead. Then I get to hear from the BB about how pleased he is with himself for making the expert slowplay and trapping both of us. Ugh.

[jkamowitz]

Playing 20/40 open QQ utg and both blind blinds call A58r they both call turn Q and I put in 8 bets in the heat of it against spewy sb only to be stopped by the dealer and realize to myself "WTF did I just do?" only put on bet on the river though and low and behold the three one's.

[private joker]

OMG how did I forget to post this hand from a week ago...

UTG limps, MP limps with 66, CO raises with AJ, SB cold-calls with 99, and I call in the BB with AT.

The flop comes J66. I bet, MP calls, CO raises, SB cold-calls (lolol), I call.

The turn is the biggest a$$hole card to end all a$$hole cards: the 9.

All hell breaks loose, naturally, and I'm able to fold the river when another huge a$$hole card comes -- the J.

[NinaWilliams]

fianchetto, raising that flop w AJ is sick bad.

Also, I've made up a different term for this but I'd prob get banned for saying it here.

I was thinking that too but didn't want to say it in this thread. All that raise does is let worse hands off cheap and allow better hands to pound us, forcing to either put a ton more money in way behind or to take a hand with showdown value and turn it into a fold on the turn.
