That happens to me everyday.
Thank God for a few of the attached hand, to make up for those
bad beats.

[kingsnthahole]

thats tough eej,
i dont know what your table image was at that time, but i def wouldnt 5 bet AJ, even if you had position on the guy...if a donkeys gonna call a 5 bet with JT, hes gonna call a 3 bet with JT...my personal philosiphy with this hand is small ball, if u turn a big hand with it, then you continue with small ball and value bet. With that said, i don't know your personal style so im not gonna judge, the guy got luck and hit his 3 outer...it happens, and in a tourney with the preflop raise and the pot size on the turn, your forced to play long ball and shove hoping he didn't hit his 3 outer...
i don't neccessarily think i owulda changed gears mid hand with this flop, so u played it right...

[GloBug]

well i woulda played it the same way and lost the same way. not much out there to think otherwise. kinda reminds me of all the beatings i have taken on the ndnpt. lol

[eejit101]

Argh, its my mission to stop you sayig 5 bet and 3 bet! 3bet = raise and reraise, 5 bet = 2 more reraises after that.

You mean 3x and 5x big blind (BB). Mwah!!!!!!!!!!!!

And im just wondering if anyone slows down on the turn, as im assuming the flop bet is spot on.

yeah flop bet was good and as for the turn. i mean there is nothing threatening to u. i guess u could slow down by checking and see what he has. but would u really fold if he pushed. thats what u need to ask yourself. only thing is trips but even then. honestly it was luck for him to win. he rode your coat tails and hit. it happens. kinda sucks though.

[freeringo]

I thought he was talking abouy the bet to blind ratio.

[eejit101]

He was, and if youve learnt something by now, its that i hate poker terms used wrongly

As in having 77 in your hand, 7 on flop, and saying "i have trips". ITS A SET!!!!!!!!

3 betting is a reraising a raise.

5 betting is re-re-reraising.

Nuff said!!


Dont know why but it drives me insane

I noticed a lot of people mix trips and sets..............i personally dont care..

i didnt not know the re-re-reraising was a 5 bet.......to much re in it lol

[kingsnthahole]

as for the 3 or 5 thing, it's not gonna happen, sorry eej....sets and trips are a different thing, i agree...
but as long as i'm winning i could call a royal flush 2 pair if i want right?
lol

Eejit i think your opponent had a read on you or put you on AJ..........because he raised you when he hit two pair. that means he felt you didnt have a set. its rough and i certainly don't play AJ very aggressive like that. i play AJ like i have a A5 suited....looking to hit two pair or flush up.

but thats a tough hand and he got lucky on that turn.what are you going to do.

[eejit101]

A read?

First time ive played this guy, and this was the third hand in the game.

eejit

The only thing that I find suspect is your call on the raise on the turn. I don't understand his call preflop, but I'm finding that more and more online. The flop call isn't that bad, he had top pair and an average kicker. If he puts you on AK or AQ then his call is right on, but we don't know what he puts you on. Now, on the turn the T hits, you lead out again. I think that is a good bet, but calling his all in doesn't make much sense. He's told you by calling the flop that I got a part of that and you need to start to consider what hands he could have. It's possible he has a set and you are hammered, or he could have a variety of Jx hands. His raise on the turn tells me that he has hit even more of that board. Having only played 3 hands, neither of you had a "true" read on your opponent, so you have to basically play the cards against the board. I think his bet on the turn was a "I've hit it hard, go away bet." If you could make the fold it would be a big one, but it's gonna be a hard fold. Not sure I could make that fold and I'm tighter than most.

[eejit101]

Thanks. IF i bet less as i was dicussing while playing it, i could have folded. Problem is i bet %'s of the pot, not of my stack, maybe i shud hange

[Gu1nne55]

That's really a tough one. I think I would have played it the same way. Every poker player knows these kind of bad beats. But although you know it, it's always frustrating again.
