Took a shot and missed

$600 NL.

I'd been casing this guy all night. He was 2 to my right and loose as a goose. Just patiently waiting for an opportunity to trap him.

I get dealt in LP. Loose guy limps with a few others. I make a veritable pot raise, and isolate the maniac. He obliges by calling..


Pot is 60$

Flop is

He overbets the pot as he usually does by betting 70$. I know he has a queen at this point. I call, knowing that I'll push on any turn besides an A or Q.

Turn is

He overbets the pot again, betting $200. I push all in for 500$ more. He insta-calls.

I know he has AQ or KQ, even QJ is a possibility.

River is

He shows AQo and scoops.

Rotten luck but nicely played. You'll get him next time.

The Bad Beat Baby says you played it right, that Ace must a felt like a kick to the gut. Next time you play him take it all back and then some. And while your at it, kick his dog and pee in his cheerios. Poker is war, if you can't beat him at the tables go to his house and lay the smack down.

trod, is your new avatar your g/f looking around your apartment and saying "nope, that'll have to go"?
