Funny AK unimproved hand

I was positive he was bluffing, and felt he couldn't call, i was wrong, but with good results.

Insane. WOW :O

What was your thought process behind making this call? Did A2s or A4s cross your mind? Awesome pot, by the way. I wish I could make reads this sick. :!:

Bmxicle you have about 30buyins for 2/4nl 6max, isnt this too few? I guess if you can hack it [which it looks like by this hand history!] then fair play

Even if he was paired up and had me beat, i felt he couldn't really call me. I was very confident that his overbet was a bluff. I did not make a call here, i pushed over the top of him, and expected him to fold his crappy hand (which turned out to be a draw). Instead he was a total fish and called me on draw.

I would never call an allin w/ AK, but i felt pushing over the top of what i felt was a bluff to get him to fold was fine. Unfortunately he called me which i was very unhappy about, until i saw what he called me with.

It's very very easily enough. In fact, the recommended bankroll for NL ring is 15 buyins, I would think you are leaning more towards 20 buyins for the higher stakes games, however.

I really don't agree with that, in 3 days i just lost about 9 buyins at 600nl/400nl combined. If i played w/ only 15 buyins i would be very scared plaing 400nl w/ only 2800 dollars.
