Low end of the straight and pfist3r has $50. Very tough call. You either have to fold or raise big - possibly push. I may be the weakest player ever, but I wait for a better spot and fold.

Calling is the worst move unless you disconnect on the turn. I like offering that as an option because it cracks me up that people do this.

I think pfst3r is probably drawing with a pair, or something like that. Maybe T8 or J9, he took a long time before deciding to call. I think if he had made the strait he might have put more money in (knowing he'll get a call) by raising, because it looks like the raising villain has 2 pr or a set that he's trying to protect.


Anyway i pushed over, and pfst3r folded. Villain #1 flipped 97 for two pair which made him a boat on the turn. Ah well Cest'La Poker.

I think thats the right play, certainly against 2.

Get it all in with the best hand. What did he have, like... 4 outs? Ah well, at least he only got 6.65 of your stack
