Played at Motor City Casino today. Chips were on a roller coaster ride for the most part.


Its about 6 (I'm leaving at 7) I'm in the BB with 4/6 hearts. 7 of the 8 players limp in ( this was common). I  toss my chips in the middle and see a free flop.

Flop comes 3c/7c/5d. Wow.......nice hand........

I check. A dude that has been at the table since it opened (and I had labeled as solid, but predictable) bet 25 bucks. A new guy in late position (had played 90 minutes, folded all but two hands, both times showed pocket aces and Queens) shoved for 117. Huh..........I put him on a set, the other guy on a draw, probably a flush draw. He has me covered (I have 197). I do a club check, tank for about 1 minute and just call. The reason I just call is I'm afraid if I push, then the initial better will fold. I want his money to. It worked out. He just called.

My remaining 85 is is going in on the turn no matter what it is. The turn is garbage, I push, he calls. Nobody rolls their cards over.

River is a K. As soon as the K hits the board, the all in dude flips his cards over, says two pair and starts to rake in the pot. I flip mine, announce "I've got the nuts"............(dumbass shoved with 117 with a pair of 7's and a K Kicker, hmmmmmmmmm).

Other dude mucks, says he was on a flush draw and a straight draw. I win something around a 570 pot.



I bought in for 200, was stuck for 350 at one point. Cashed out at 525 for a profit, and played at a fun table.

DD:

Life is good when the other players "cooperate" at the table.

Unfotunately, it doesn't work out that way very often. In fact, how many times has that same guy sucked out his flush on the river being a 4:1 dog.....

The players cooperated, but the cards didn't...

Be safe,

At our home game, 4-6 is nicknamed "Baby Monster". Reason being, it's a baby hand that can usually bring down a monster.

Unfortunately for me, one time at a casino, I was on the receiving end of that scenario.

I was UTG w/ AA. I raised and got one caller UTG+2. Flop came 3-5-7.

Long story short, he flips over 4-6 for the nuts by the time the river was dealt.....BALLS!!!!

Baby Monster....gotta love her....gotta hate her

He should have paid me off on that one......
