unfortunatley the site i play at dosnt send hand histories so ill try to type it out as good as i can.

6 player table
New to table. 1 familiar face but other then that no reads. Havent seen the player in question around much on a small site so im assuming he is atleast new to the site. The player in question had just lost a decent sized pot 3 hands ago but seemed to take it in stride just typing "Nice Hand"
I am Button in a $2/4 NL game

i am dealt :Jh: :Jc:
UTG ($475) calls $4
2 Folds
Button ($415) raises to $14
Both blinds fold
UTG calls

Flop
:Tc:

UTG checks
Button bets $25
UTG calls $25

Turn


UTG checks
Buttons bets $60
UTG calls $60

River
:Kd:

UTG goes all in about $375

what do you do?

 Fold find a better spot to call off your entire stack.

what aces said, this is a very marginal spot where you may lose all your money
take your ego out of the equation and judge the situation dispassionately

I ended up calling after almost timing out....all the numbers were telling me to fold but i just felt like something was up...

he flips over


and i take it down.

I used to never trust my "feelings" when at a poker table but ever since i have started going for it my game has defiantely improved. when you go for it and are right its such a rush...and when you lose you definately learn alot and remember it for next time. i think this has helped me develop my game more then anything else in recent history
