Still wondering how in the world that person could call me with no pair, no straight or flush draws on the flop and with another guy behind.

http://www.cardrunners.com/pokertool...939741/replay/

Guy raises $2 and i reraise $7 and they call that, flop is nothing and i bet $20 the person calls that with nothing at all and another guy behind with $90 that called the reraise before flop. I know my stack was small but i find this to weird and that person hits runner runner ( 99 ).

He actually had a straight flush draw on the flop.

Agree, his draws are usually good, especially against shortstackers. Unlucky you did not suck out this time.

AA and a 30bb stack... Time to slow down and extract value!

the best hands in holdem 2 cards are draws because:
1. they are disguised
2. u tilt opponents when u hit
3. most casinos and online sites are rigged so u will hit a lot
4. they are FUN. dont u like to hit that 8 out open ended against the top pro that puts you on open ended straight draw?

if u want to win at pokar never fold a draw

By definition, a normal hand is 50/50 to win. This has been proven many times in this forum, so no point covering old ground here

But he has 4 cards, that's twice as many as normal, therefore he's twice as likely to win as he was before. And any 8yo kid can tell you that 50%+50% = 100%

So basically, you're betting into someone who is certain to win. Why would you do that?

I see you raised because you had AA. These youngbloods, lemme tell you son PLO aint just holdem + 2 cards. PLO is a drawing game. You had absolutely no draws at all on the flop, and you go stacking off with 1 pair. Meanwhile villain had every draw you can have with his hand. Hope you learned your lesson. BTW great $3 bet on the turn with like $60 out there, he's definitely folding to that.

^^Standard min-bet to make the estimated 3,5% of bot-villains overfold
