well, the reason i posted this is not a bad beat - because it wasnt. i thought of this as an interesting hand where a garbage hand somehow overcame the impossible and caught implied odds to take down a monster.

if you think about it, he put in most of his money when he was ahead. the reraise all-in was another 250+, so it was certainly considerable.


anyway, my reads on the guy were a perfect LAgg. i knew he didnt have KJ+ because he woulda raised preflop. he would also have raised with 22 or 44. in fact, ive seen him reraise with these hands just to isolate. funny thing is he did it against aces one time and lost his stack. i put him on Kx, with x being somewhat decent - probably a 10.


anyway, i was repping aces the whole way through, any decent player would know that. so i was just wondering about the play...if implied odds (on any 2 cards) with 2 players with deep stacks could make this play worthwhile.
