There were not a lot of seats available. I hated this room as soon as I stepped in, I was getting ready to leave as soon as the blinds came back around. I liked these cards, especially with a cheap flop on the button. I was scared of the re-raise, (I'm always scared when pushed all-in) But how can you fold the nuts?

Game #519262103 - (blinds $0.05/$0.10) No Limit Texas Hold'em -
2004/06/10-22:34:33 (CST)
Table "Corvo" (real money) -- Seat 9 is the button
Seat 1: New-Be ($25.88 in chips)
Seat 2: Sunny14 ($13.76 in chips)

Seat 5: Cheap_stuff ($11.25 in chips)
Seat 6: acilfisher ($8.95 in chips)
Seat 7: Gawaine79 ($13.50 in chips)

I think this may have been too big of a raise, but I wanted to get a few people out, I'd hate to play this kind of hand against 4 others, too many opportunities to out-draw.

Ogmocat : Fold
jiimmyford: Fold
Humphrind: Raise All-in ($2.35)

I don't know what they have to say
It makes no difference anyway.
Whatever it is...
I'm against it.

Well played, over betting the pot in this situation is acceptable as the only hand you can worry about is 2 s and they are only going to win 1/3 of the time.

You played it well.
Poker is all about the long long long long long long long term . . .
