wow is all i can say.
limp calls 8 with jto. calls 14 on a gutshot, and then bets only 2 out on the river with the made hand. He probably coulda milked 15 bux here easy.
this really shows the difference between the good player and the donkey.
good players might chase but when they hit they make you pay.
donkeys chase a lot, but barely make you pay when they hit.
great hand!

he was pretty bad, but in his defense, he did have the flush to fear.

And limp-calling with JT isn't a bad move.

And the full house, but his river bet is pretty low!

Head's up, sure. But no way is this a losing play in a threeway pot. I'd consider calling T8s in that same situation if the stacks were deep enough to make it worthwhile.
