$30 heads up

#1 28th March 2009, 4:09 PM

To say I'm a bit upset is an understatement and I am seriously worried that my opponent had information not available to me.

Heads up, blinds 20/40. Me 1600 chips, him 1400 chips. He goes all in. I have KK. Understandably I call but expecting AA or other high PP or AK.

No, he has 10 5 unsuited. Imagine how p'd off I am to see a 5 on the flop and another on the turn. No explanation as to why he went all in when asked.

Anyone else had similar experience? There is absolutely no reason in the world to go all in.

Wow that must have been a tough one to take. In heads up guys do play hands that they would not even think about in a SnG with a few players but 10 5 unsuited that was not poker. I guess there is ot much anybody can say to you to make you feel better. I think you had to call and in doing so you were a big favorite. He had around a 2% chance of flopping 2 pairs which was the minimum he needed to beat you. His chances of hitting trips were less than 1.5%. So for every 100 hands you play he would have won 2. Hard to take.

That sucks dude, I have a similar experience where I had trip Aces on the flop and the idiot goes all in and hits runner runner straight with like 2 5 off suit. There are some donks out there but in the long run you'll find that you will come out on top.

People tend to play a LOT more aggressively HU. I've seen all kinds of wtf? plays. Heads-up isn't so much about the cards, as it is playing the player. But--obviously this guy is horrible if he's trying to steal at the 20/40 blind level by shoving with 10/5. It just sucks that you had him so dominated and he lucked sacked on you. Happens all the time though...as a poker player you have to learn to just roll with it.

But, if you really think there was something shady going on (I really doubt it, but hey), send the info to the site's support so they can investigate.

Lol!
That was not poker maybe lotto.
I think you had to call with KK just he was lucky but every situation he didnt win!
You will win 90-95% and he will win 5-10%!
10 5 unbelive if you remember his name you dont play never he is donk.
