This was the first thing I thought of when I saw the title.

owned

lol

actually, yes, but they were all LHE in B&M's back in Cali. Most bar-league nlhe
freerolls out here don't even bother w/ antes.
True... i have yet 2 play a nlhe tourney live in a B&M.

its funny cuz i was just reading supersystem section on omaha and they recommend this kind of fold vs alot of action because u could be getting freerolled etc

Call the first re-raise and turn-shove any non-club, Jack or 10.

I'm fairly sure that's why Clayton thought this was the worst play in the history of the WSOP, not because the guy folded the nuts, but because he committed the cardinal sin of 3betting without a plan.

standard fold. wait for a better spot. it's the main event of the world series of poker and its your tournament life.

Sounds like the dude read this El Diablo post and was making a smart play

I know someone who is NOT going to appreciate this post!

i am embarrassed for my university

He blew it when he raised to 11k then.

This fold isn't nearly as bad as many of you seem to think.

After the 4 bet for all the chips (I presume) if you think you can narrow him down to JTc then it may have actually been a good play (albeit a nitty one) incredibly enough.

From the other guy's perspective holding JTc....this is the type of opportunity I drool for. Where I can already pretty much tell that my opponent likely has the flop-nuts without the re-draw and is going to be happy to give me that freeroll on him.

Happens most frequently with JTs vs. some other JT or AKs vs. some other AK I think.


For some reason it reminds me of the main-event I played in 2005 where I got all-in preflop with KK against a really nitty player UTG who was very obviously holding AA and I really really thought about getting away...but it was KK obviously and I was bullying the table a little bit so he could have been playing back at me with AK or QQ or something maaaaaybe just because of my aggressiveness...plus by that time we had too many of our damn chips in there for me to not call his all-in push unfortunately (I too was guilty of bad 3-bet sizing!!)

This hand is proof that DONKAMENTS ARE NOT POKER

ez to call when it's only $5

I've always loved that shot.

How ****ing soulread must the other guy have felt if he had JTcc

even if he did have that he probably gained more equity thru the fold

Can people stop pretending to be idiots in this thread ? There are plenty of real ones to go around :-)

quickly as im on break...

i ran into war dekar who said he sat with villain who didnt fold JTo. he told WarDekar he had AJcc and was stunned

so, yeah... there.

^^ Obvious misinformation designed to get action from opponents holding the nuts in the future.

He had a read imo

Wow what a read, the other AA was sooted

When you raise for information and your opponent gives you the information you were looking for, you just have to be diciplined and make the fold
