The Pirate is Hauling The Junk
All you Pirate fans will love this one. We are four handed and I limped in with wired 6's under the gun. The Pirate also limps and we all see the flop of QS, 4D, 2D with a $4 pot.
I make a $3 bet and get raised by the Pirate to $7. The blinds fold and I call the extra $4 to see the 6D on the turn. Keeping things conservative, I check and call a $10 bet.
The river is QD, so I ship my remaining stack of $47 and get called… Am I good?
The Pirate shows the Q2 and cleans me out.
The range of cards that he'll call on the button even with a raise is pretty wide. If I were to find fault with any of the play it would have been with just that, not raising preflop four handed with a pocket pair. However, given the hands, I don't see any way that I keep any of the chips in front of me.

The only thing you did wrong was (if I am reading the betting correctly) call a pot sized bet out of position with pocket 6's with a Q on the board. Any Queen has you completely dominated and you only have 2 outs.
ReplyDeleteSide note: My nine year old stopped going to the Sunday night game I play because a lady did this to him when he had KQ on the button. A queen flopped, he bet the pot, she called, spiked her two outer, then a K came on the river and she took all of his money. He said "I'm not playing with bad players who make horrible calls like that." I tried explaining that bad calls are where you make your money but he was too pissed. LOL
Before and after that, you did everything right (all just my opinion of course).
