You have the nuts, and get re-raised, what a feeling.

Postby reidy125 » Wed May 05, 2004 1:17 pm GMT

I havent been on the best of runs lately, i've been winning at the 25c tables on pacific poker, probably 2 BB's an hour, I know this is normally regarded as good, but these games are so easy to beat.
Anyway, I had AK diamonds, and at the BB, and raise, to which everyone calls. The flop comes A and 2 diamonds, so I have top pair and the nut flush draw, again I raise, and get called by 2 guys. The turn comes, another diamond, i make the nut flush, there's no full house on the board so I raise again, get reraised, again i raise, he reraises and I call. Anyway, the river's no help to anyone, so I bet, the first guy folds, the 2nd guy just calls this time.
A $12 pot at the 25c tables is amazing..

I guess what I'm saying is, how good do you feel when some guy reraises you, when you have the complete nuts! That made my whole night, I think I won about $40 in a couple of hours there, way way above the BB.

There is no better feeling, especially if it's against ur nearest rival if u r chip leader. I was at a UB SnG with KK sitting on the button. I raised pre-flop of course and got 4 callers with only 8 people in which was a good start. The flop came KK7 and 2 guys raised before me. I was chip leader going into the hand and I took out the guys that were both 2nd AND 3rd in that one hand and cleaned a couple of other guys out heavily. I didn't look back after that of course, most enjoyable hand of poker ever I reckon 8)

ya i remember a hand a while back at my friends house. 25/50 cent blinds.

I looked down to c queens, i raised to 3 bucks and got 2 callers, one who was the chip leader. Flop comes kq2 rainbow. I bet 5, the chip leader calls and the other one folds. Turn is a k. I bet 5 more, he re - raises me all in. I call. He turns over a k. I show my house and just smile.

River brings noting, and i win a damn nice pot.

Had a hand like that last night in .25/.50 PL ($50 buy in). Get AK and raise to $2. BB raises me back to $3.50. I call the $1.50 and the two of us see the flop.

It comes down Q-x-x rainbow. He bets the minimum, .50 (I know what a joke with over $7 in the pot) and I call. Turn is a 10. Same thing, he bets .50 and I call. River is a J. Woo hoo! With no flush possibility or pair on the board, my Broadway is the nuts. He bets $1.50, I make a pot sized raise. Then he re-raises! I'm happy to re-raise and go all-in. He calls and shows pocket 10's.
