SLOWROLL AFTER NITROLL AFTER SLOWROLL... [Warning: Strat inside]

Just a frustrated venting post here. Been running so bad that it had come to a point where I would have to be putting together a buy-in from the spare change in my room in order to be playing the regular stakes (2/5 NL).

So this maniac who's raised just about every other hand preflop and c-betted every time before giving it up on the turn, makes it $15 to go. A few other people call and I call on the BTN with A3. Both blinds call.

Flop ($90): 542
The original raiser bets $50. Everyone else folds.

Now I know here that if he has any high club, he's not folding to any raise. So I decide to take a safe card and promptly let go of my hand if another hits. I call. The blinds fold.

Turn ($190): A

Kind of an action killer card. Not only do I lose action from any overpair but there is an apparent 4-straight on the board.

To my surprise, Villain fires $200. I only lose to a flush here. What are the odds that he has just that? I mean he did bet out the flop into 5 people, why not slow-play a bit? Either way I have pretty much the 2nd nuts here. It's either flush or way behind for him.

I go all in for $500 and change total. That's about $300 more for him to call and he goes into the tank. I'm like **** I should have raised him on the flop now he won't pay me.

But then I did not expect him to believe me for a straight or a flush and to call of the last $300 with any Ace or high spade. He calls.. with a disappointed crying-call look on his face and his head tilted about 15 degrees downward. I announce "Straight!".

As soon as the word hit his ears, he rapidly and aggressively reached to flip over his card. Between that moment and before the cards were even turned I could relive a holocaust in my heads; *********** MOTHER****ING FML ANOTHER ****ING SET-UP/SLOWROLL FOR A 3 BI POT ON MY LAST BUY-IN BEFORE THE ****ING PAYDAY......

Spoiler:


- What are you waiting for?
- I wasn't sure
- I mean what are you slow-rolling for?

And of course the nit to my left agreed that it was a "tough call" and went on to berate me for accusing a slow-roll and how it was clearly not a slow-roll. Didn't want to burn any more energy. Back to the rail. Whale status lost

Re: SLOWROLL AFTER NITROLL AFTER SLOWROLL... [Warning: Strat inside]

you know he's not folding any high spade, so you... call?

good flat pre on the button though

A3 is a powerful hand

Serious question... Could you have played the hand any worse on any street?

Nice bankroll management.

'I say straight, villain rapidly turns over his flush'

How in the world is that a slowroll
