Straight Flush....! Giddy up.

[wsorbust]

I'm playin' one of those useless UB Bonus $ tourneys and hit the straight flush. I've been playing extremely tight during the whole thing. The guy raises with decent cards...and from what I can tell, making the usual push/pot bet (or as I like to call it: "The Lederer") after he raises pre. I think I played it pretty well....? eh. Who am I kidding, ya can't analyze with so little info....I'm just so damn excited I hit it! weeeeee!

The "correct" move is to go "OMG STR8 FLUSH" and then check, with an all in on the river LOL

 

[joosebuck]

he's stupid for folding 1000 more into a pot of over 9k.

 

[jayneseo]

He's stupid for betting 3400 on a bluff when there are straight and flush possiblities out there too

Congrats

Bad play by BFuddle. He has to call the 1k more wtf...there was so much in the pot to lay down for only that much more. Congrats on your str8 flush "wsorbust". How did you end up in the tourney?

 

[wsorbust]

Yeah, the only thing I can figure is that he probably paired that J, or he thought he would just call and bluff me off because of my style of play.

As for placing...I crapped out right before the bonus pennies started paying...I'm definitely missing 34and 5th gear...I don't know what happened. . . I haven't been the same since the wsop aired on ESPN last year.....but I definitely had at least 3rd gear before. lol The search continues...I should pick up Harrington or something.
