Sucky sucky. Humorous chat transcript follows. I don't recommend playing this way.

Setup - table is really getting tight and turning into a blind stealing war. I haven't caught a hand in a while and decide to spice things up a bit. Villain has been calling and cold calling a LOT. Flop couldn't have hit me much harder. I use the stop and go between the flop and turn to fake the King. This hand sends the villain over the edge and he leaves 3 hands later.

Party Poker 2/4 Hold'em (10 handed) converter

Preflop: Hero is MP2 with 9, J.
4 folds, Hero raises, MP3 calls, 4 folds.

Flop: (5.50 SB) 8, 4, 7 (2 players)
Hero bets, MP3 raises, Hero calls.

Turn: (4.75 BB) K (2 players)
Hero bets, MP3 calls.

River: (6.75 BB) Q (2 players)
Hero bets, MP3 calls.

Final Pot: 8.75 BB

Results in white below:
Hero has 9s Js (flush, queen high).
MP3 has Jd Jh (one pair, jacks).
Outcome: Hero wins 8.75 BB.


villain: rofl
villain: good raise with the j 9
lhoney2: good cold call
villain: omg its suited
lhoney2: easier to make flushes that way
villain: jackass
lhoney2: yep
lhoney2: your jacks weren't sooted
#2072296748: The_12ounder wins $39 from the main pot with a flush, ace high.
lhoney2: guess that's why you didnt raise

I don't get the turn bet, he folds there like never. Also, rethink your seat selection if he's cold-calling a lot. Otherwise, perfect hand.

Love the table chat, that's exactly what I'm talking about...

I had raised this guy's blind and got caught stealing a few times. He wasn't in the blind this time, but I had seen him make plays at the flop then lay down when it came to the big bets. I didn't know he had JJ!

12 outs + a little fold equity...if it's not a good bet it's close. I'm trying to rep a hand here. Guess you think that's kinda fancy?

Oh yeah, forgot to mention I had a feeling a spade was hitting on the river.

The problem is he almost never folds here, sometimes raises and expects to be check/raised if you really had the King.
