after i was almost done typing all of this hand i got some crap come up and delete my whole post so i'm gonna just lay out the base of what happened...
me holding - 99 with 3 ppl in on flop
9 - K - A comes out
sb - small raise
bb - call
me - call
4th spot - call
turn 9 - K - A (A)
sb - medium raise
bb - calls
me - call
4th spot calls
everyone calls
river 9 - K - A - A - K
i'm scared now...my full is wimpy compared to the other 2 possible fulls....
so i fold being scared and knowing someone is holding at least one Ace....
sb - all in
bb - calls
me - fold
4th spot - re raises all in for more chips
bb - calls
sb - has K9 with K's over A's full
bb - has KQ with same hand
4th spot - has AA with four A's
i was so happy i folded.....kinda sucked.....what if i went all in and everyone called me....4th spot would've for sure lol...i was doomed...luckily i folded.... | | Read Entire Entry |

Dont play your hand in the sb or bb if it is raised and your hand is not that good or if they just call and you check you usally pick up a draw and you call down the bets and dont hit anything, so be carfull when in the sb and bb.

i was at a casino and had about 350+ chips in front of me. (after buying in with a $100 and sitting at the table for about 4 hours). im in early position, i think 2 after the button and i get dealt K/Q suited. so i decided to raise up just a bit. im not a big fan of these kinds of hands, but at the same time i dont want any limpers. i get 2 callers in middle position. a woman and a guy named diago. the flop comes down 9, 5, K with no draws. i want to see where everyone is at and i bet out $25, the woman folds and diago calls. the turn card is 9 and i think that im good, but i still bet out and this i bet big to show i have a strong hand..i bet $40 and diago goes all in over that which was about $130 more to me. so i call time and begin thinking of that hands he could have. i was positive he didnt have K/9 cuz he would just called. i was thinking that maybe he could have K/rag and was really considering calling him. then it hit me, maybe diago is holding a 9 in his hand. ::story break::

I was playing in a cash game with a few of my buddies and I had deadman's hand suited (A8) and usually I might've called before the flop to see the flop BUT as action came around to me I called and the guy next to me raised 5 bucks, then he got reraised 10. So i decided to stay out and fold...
Flop comes A 8 8 and boy am I pissed! Just tossed a full house and the two that were still in the hand were betting like mad men! Lol turns out I would've lost my whole stack probably (about $200) cause the guy next to me had pocket aces.
Whew.

I was just playing this morning at a 25 cent NL table. I had had some good luck and was up about 28 bucks. I was dealt 2 queens and before the bet came to me the pot was raised to 3 dollars. Normally I would re-raise with queens, but seeing as how I didn't want to lose all my money I had made in one shot I just called. I had put this raiser on AA or KK or possibly AK too. Flop brought an ace and help for me so I got out of it quick. 2 people ended up playing for a pot of nearly 50 bucks (the raiser with AK and someone else with A10). I could have lost a lot more than 3 bucks here .
