Texas Hold'em Hand Play-By-Play Example - Another Laydown
I can't reiterate enough how important it is to recognize when you are beaten, and to lay that
hand down! Getting away from a hand, a very strong hand, is crucial. A poor player will not
be able to fold his top pair, but you need to be able to do this to have a winning strategy.
Check out the below hand, I'm playing as FlopTurnRiver, and am dealt AJo in early position.
There is a bet of $.50, a raise of $.50, I call. I hit an Ace on the flop, and bet every round
until the river, at which point I check and then fold...
At the end of this hand, you'll see what the other two opponents had. One sucker
had the identical hand as myself and, unfortunately for him, was unable to lay his hand down.
