This one is for Piers! Cheers Piers! I was going to fold preflop after the first raise until his raise got 2 callers, then I figured WTH, it's only another dollar, Piers would do it! I didn't have the guts to bet the river. I probably should have though after they all just called my flop and turn bets. Actually, Piers, I'm pretty sure you would have check raised the flop right?

Empire Poker 1/2 Hold'em (10 handed)

Preflop: Hero is BB with , . A POWER hand if ever there was one!
UTG raises, 1 fold, UTG+2 calls, 1 fold, MP2 calls, MP3 calls, 3 folds, Hero calls.

Flop: (10.50 SB) , , (5 players)
Hero bets, UTG calls, UTG+2 calls, MP2 calls, MP3 calls.

Turn: (7.75 BB) (5 players)
Hero bets, UTG calls, UTG+2 folds, MP2 calls, MP3 calls.

River: (11.75 BB) (4 players)
Hero checks, UTG checks, MP2 checks, MP3 checks.

Their sorry ass hands are below in white.
UTG doesn't show AK
MP2 doesn't show AK
MP3 doesn't show AJ

Final Pot: 11.75 BB Not too bad for a blind defense right?

Sorry man.. that was a terrible call by you. I seriously doubt Piers would defend his BB with such complete trash with two other callers already in there. You had no need to defend your BB here.

Check-raising the flop would be stupid. Always pay attention to who raised pre-flop. Since you decided to stay in the hand, lead out with a bet and if UTG wants to re-raise with whatever, so be it - make everyone else face two bets cold. If you check and UTG bets, you have no idea where you are in the hand.

Naah, we were just playing with you. We know you know it was a lucksack moment, but it does piss you off when some schmuck UTG with stats like 84/53/0.50 raises your BB with something you KNOW is trash.

And BTW, my wife thinks I'm quite the sexy beast. And Kelly McGillis? You seen her lately? She went from a hot woman (Top Gun, and Witness--damn) to looking like she got smacked in the face with a bag of WTF.

And you won the hand--you played it expertly.

[EscapePlan9]

Post-flop you played the hand great.

[SebQtaneus]

Tib,

OMG! I just looked up some recent pics of K. McGillis and you are soooo right about her. She was pretty hot back in the early mid 80's but now she's lookin like a hag. EEWWWWW!!!!

You aint thinking of changing your name to sexy beast now are you?

[Tiburon]

Name change? Never.

Kelly McGillis went from this:



To this:



Like I said, she got hit in the face with a bag of WTF.
