Ouch, that first hands sucks. Heres what I don't understand. All to often someone will chase their hand and then when they hit it they don't bet or raise. He hits his flush and doesn't raise. He has to think its good or he wouldn't have been drawing to it.

I cried when I saw you over-limp KQo from the CO.

Honestly Fnord that was a mis-click on that KQ. I almost never limp KQo from anywhere. UTG+1 was new to the table, sat down with $30 and had just shown down Q9o that he raised on the flop and turn with just overcards. My mistake was not recognizing textbook fish strategy, go super aggro with an unimproved Q9o and limp with bullets...

Typical passive play. Passive players are more afraid of losing money than they are interested in winning money. Basically they throw their chips out there and then close their eyes, cross their fingers and start praying that they win. Exactly what this guy did with his weak flush.

I wish I could play against these players all the time...

It's a gambling game right? Someone bets and everyone else calls (unless they have the nuts on the river.)

When you do decide to enter the pot with KQo from LP, you gotta raise and put pressure on those left to act. If you get re-raised pre-flop you've at least learned something about your opponent's hand.

That's at least better than limping

I agree, it would have at least probably saved me a couple of bets on the turn if I even had stuck around that long.
