hand i played where i was pretty LOST…
so i don’t normally post much poker content but i thought this hand was memorable.
i’m stranded on an island and playing one hand heads-up for bragging rights/machismo/some stolen medicine.
don’t really remember the action up till the river but on the river the board is like K95xx no flushes or str8s.
i have J9.
i bet 10 mangos, villian raises me Amoxicillin, i shove all in.
he says “thats the bet of a man that wants me to lay it down”
so i level him by saying “you’re not going to lay it down, cuz people are watching and you don’t want them to see you lose”.
so he goes “ok i call” at which point i realize i don’t know if i was bluffing or value shoving.
then he tables 54 for 3rd pair and i slowroll the J9.
he gets all belligerent “YOU PUSHED ALL IN WITH A PAIR OF NINES????!!!!”
and i’m like “sometimes its enough” all suavely as i get up and walk away.
dude totally thought my 4bet range on the river was polarized so he
tried to hero call me, and i was like BING BANG BLAOW…RANGE MERGE
MOTHERFUCKER.
LOST
