agree that going all in was not correct

hard to argue it was

I showed up.

And in one of the most devastating turn of events in the history of poker, my flopped set ended up losing to a flush on the river.

Got all my money in as a 71% favorite. That's what pros do.

tatddy,

SBR poker doesnt even come close to being real poker. At that point in the tourney, he was WELL away from the money and took a shot at getting you to fold. It isnt like we paid money for the tournament or that we will win alot from the tournament

I'm not upset over it. It was a laugher. Nobody takes this seriously. Thanks for the headline, PO.

Point is poker is a game of obtaining information. Could have bet 900 instead of 5K and left himself with tons of play. Shopping there you're only getting called if you're losing.

Once again I agree that shipping in that situation was a questionable call.................

Yes. He had top pair, too. Maybe he was hoping the board would pair twice.

Nice to see you showed up. Like there was ever any doubt.

in defense of the guy tatddy, he didnt think that he was on a draw at all

He had ace-king and he had the nut draw, but he was the one who went all in trying to take down the pot on the turn. I am sure that he wasnt expecting a call

You got it 100%.

His calculated outs were actually 9, not 6. Also he had to figure another ace would help him with no straight possibilities on the board and maybe even a king...

Shipping it like that was kind of strange but standard for SBR poker... He had top pair + best kicker so it's not like he went all-in with strictly a flush draw.

I agree - it was kind of strange - but not crazy.
