OK here is an interesting hand from $25/$50NL. Ask yourself if you have the stones to play like this ...
This is a very interesting hand I observed between Jeff Williams (yellowsub86) and big cash game player and tournament winner Williamhill. Williamhill flops a str8 and yellowsub donks off his stack with 4th pair playing power poker. Luckily for yellowsub he has Presto and goes runner-runner miracle full house to scoop a $12K pot:
*** HOLE CARDS ***
Williamhill raises $150 to $200
yellowsub86 raises $450 to $650
Williamhill calls $450
*** FLOP *** [Tc 7d Jh]
Williamhill checks
yellowsub86 bets $850
Williamhill raises $850 to $1700
yellowsub86 raises $4400 to $6100 (this is a serious bet and can only be called by a set or a str8)
Williamhill calls $3645.70 and is all-in (calling with the nutz but we know that flopped str8s always lose)
*** TURN *** [Tc 7d Jh] [Js]
*** RIVER *** [Tc 7d Jh Js] [5d]
*** SHOW DOWN ***
Williamhill shows [9c 8c] (a straight, Seven to Jack)
yellowsub86 shows [5h 5c] (a full house, Fives full of Jacks)
yellowsub86 collected $12063.40 from pot
Interesting that yellowsub with reraise with 55 and Williamhill will call with 98s. Drawing thin to a runner runner situation yellowsub pulls off a miracle. Williamhill will steam about this for a while.
Welcome to the big games …

Presto is Gold (Part 27) [But it was all for naught]
Pokerstars $5/10NL, 6-handed
*** HOLE CARDS ***

Fuel55 raises $90 to $130 with [5c 5d] from CO
Victim raises $2478 to $2608 and is all-in
Fuel55 calls $462 and is all-in (well I figure him for a big ace and can’t really fold a pair – especially the SIGNATURE HAND)

*** TURN *** [9s 2s 5h] [6h]
*** RIVER *** [9s 2s 5h 6h] [7h]

Fuel55: shows [5c 5d] (three of a kind, Fives)
