From time to time I usually play cash games, mostly in the Zoom format (my favorite). It was the BB, bet of 10 cents. UTG folded, UTG + 1, fold, CO call, Button folded, SB increased to 25 cents. So far so good, it leaves with an ace pair. I paid the bet the CO called, too. Flop: 4h, As, Jd. As I did three of a kind, I ordered the pot. 75 cents. CO folded. and the SB gave all in, he was with 1 dollar. I just completed the rest and went for the showdown in the 2.75 dollar dispute. To my surprise the other player gives me an All in with a measly 2h-3s. I thought to myself how a person can give an all in with these letters. And follow the game. Flop: 5h. I thought, taking bad beat with a Three of a Kind Ace is a lot but a lot of bad luck. And already cursing for the bad beat I waited for the river. For my happiness came another 5. I got the River to revert this bbad beat, in addition to zeroing the opponent, increased by 2.75 in my winnings. And I wonder, did the opponent want to force a fold by seeing a flop which he had 4 outs? Did not he analyze the move coldly? And worse as the guy makes me 2.5 bet with a measly 2 and 3 not suited?
