The rundown of the hand, what actually happened.
He raise to 164$. I take 3 seconds to read him not having a set and call. That 14$ pre is a call me bet, which resulted in exactly that, but IÂ’m seriously considering raising bigger pre there, obviously the lag player to my left was nuts and was calling much bigger, and now the pot is four waysÂ…
Anyway I call. I think I have the best hand, lots of 9x 8x 7x on that board, board which is impossible to have a made straight, but certainly hits low cards, which these guys totally have some of the time limp calling.
So I call, not feeling super comfortable because im all in, just donÂ’t like to be all in without close to the nuts.
So run down comes
4-5-9-9-3
Villain turns over 67o for seven high straight.
Feels like how I lose online tournaments, he tried to semi bluff shoves me out, and gets lucky. Absolute disaster. But I lost so many times like that, even though I look +ev, I still think im doing something wrong somewhere and is willing to accept help or tips or ways to see it differently and do something different.
My personal thoughts are that raise bigger pre, and hammer the **** out of that pot, I have the best hand anyway most of the time, and these guys calllls, or raise me all in with seven high eh, I guess he sees weakness where there isnÂ’t, but to give him some rope, I did not always have it with a relatively bigger size than that, so he thinks he can get me out. I donÂ’t think he has a set not at 164$, if he raise to 64$ maybe, but all in? I donÂ’t think so.
So 21$ is 1/3 pot, looks small to me, well not really but to him it looks small, if I bet 45$ there, or 70$, I think he stops thinking he can bluff me out. Ffff.
