Sometimes I do wonder what goes through a players mind when he decides to call a bet, personally it might be a fly passing through his ears on this occassion. I'm dealt 9 J diamonds so call the blind no one raise so on to the flop Qd 10c 8d so I flopped a striaght, one off a flush & one off a striaght flush. normally I would have check but I just had an urge elimate possible contenders cos my striaght could turn in to flush and it could be beaten so I decide to raise 4 times the blind (800) the only person to call is the chip leader. I would just like to point out I give people their dues if they are a good player I will acknowledge it but in this case it was pure luck this guy is chip leader. So on to the turn 8h. I'm still not worried striaght beats 3 of a kind but I really want him out of the hand now so I throw 1000 chips in to the pot he calls. The river comes down another flamin 8 I'm sunk I know a full house is a possibity he checks I decide not to risk any more chips as he will probably call. Shock horror he has a queen in his hand to give him full house. Winning all the way til the river. Surely it must have crossed his mind I had the striaght from the beginning, he was either brave or a fool my money was on the later from watchin him play.

It does suck, I was playing in my pub league last night. Having a terrible night partly due to me not really in the mood. So I'm short stacked with 1200 chips & blinds 200/400 when I get dealt in late pos. So I've pretty much had enough already so go all in everyone folds after me it comes to another ss with 1000 chips he thinks for a while not sure whether to call & in the end calls,quick as a flash the player sat next to me calls as well. So we all turn over our cards. The guy with 1000 has , the person sat next to me has . The winner of this hand has a pair of 7's, I end up taking the second pot of 400 but still end up 800 chips down
