Villain shows [9c]


Let the bluffer hang himself. This is someone who had already lost one pot betting all streets with 87 on a J7xxx board -- and was called down by someone with A7. So clearly that hand I had just seen wasn't his first 3-barrel bluff. I figured top pair was good more than 50% of the time and that he would push if I showed any weakness at all....

And no, I never play like this....

I am really tired of that phrase.

OK, I see.

All of the "valuetown" posts I have ever seen are from limit. Maybe a better phrase would be in order for no-limit.

Let's put it this way.

What's the worst hand you have ever called with on the river, for a full stack, in a full ring NLHE game, and won the hand?

Top pair 4th kicker (this hand) is probably the winner in that category for me.
