Poker, its a funny old game, the gods are just playing with me
i play a $2 turbo on full tilt, play steady and when we get down to 3 the other 2 guys are so passive that i just bet everything until the bet back, it didnt take too long and i won!! at last 2 wins in 2 days, need a few more now
but then my other temptation reared its ugly head, i put $6 in a cash table!!! why do i do it???????
a few good hands where i didn't put the guy on anything so reraised and took some pots, can't remember any details!!
now the bad.
i get AQ i raise 3xbb, think 1 caller
flop comes pretty raggy, he checks so i bet bout half-3/4 pot..... he thins then calls
turn a 6 and pairs the board, he checks again.... well he not showing any strength so i fire again at it, this time a pot size bet....
again he dwells before calling
river cant remember he checks and now i think i must be being trapped so i check back
i show and i either had 1 or 2 pairs, cant remember exactly now
so what he have........ K4hearts, and u know what the river was... yup the 3rd heart to give him the FLUSH!! he had nothing but kept calling to the river where he duely got the winning hand
so what i do wrong?? should i have bet more??
a few hands later and still pretty pissed off i get A10 diamonds 2 limpers so i raise 4xBB, SB folds, BB calls and one other calls
flop is J89, with one diamond
1st guy checks, 2nd bets 20c, i reraise to 80c now the original checker re-reraises to $1.80......
other guy folds... so i got open ended str8 and a runner runner nut flush draw....
i decide to jam in my remaining $3.50 or similar amount
the guy thinks for a while and calls
showdown
ME A10 str8 and flush draw
HIM 53clubs ??????? there are 2 clubs on the board!!!!
so turn... a Q!!!! i got the str8 for once the gods are smiling on me!!!!!
River... CLUB!! he takes the flush and my $6 is gone
so did i play it wrong? was it just the gods? or is it just that flush draws always hit against me?
so after getting my account up it now at either $10 or $16 not sure
brilliant!! i couldnt get pokerstars to work so will look into that 2moro

It seems the guy may have been getting the correct pot odds to call for the flush. Whether i would or not against that sort of raise is another question.. maybe with an ace high flush draw...
After your comment i'd thought i'd add a united mention to my blog!
