*** HOLE CARDS ***
I'd been pretty dead the first 20 or so hands. This was the first hand I really played.
Dealt to crushmastac [Ah Ad]
gakins: raises 90 to 120
This guy has seen 80% of the flops. He's pretty aggressive.
crushmastac: raises 180 to 300
sarspec: folds
RobWagsf: calls 300
This worried me. This guy had played only 2 more hands than me (4/20) and he was very tight. I had his range on TT-KK here.
Kwame Hart: folds
bilew222: folds
bilew222 is sitting out
plumberium: folds
USLawStinks: folds
gakins: calls 180
*** FLOP *** [Ks Qd Tc]
My heart sank when I saw this flop. For one, 3 of the 4 holdings I put Rob on has just made a set. Secondly, gakins likes hands like KQ, QT, KT, so I'm fearing both a set and two pair.
gakins: checks
crushmastac: bets 270
I want to know where I stand
RobWagsf: calls 270
gakins: raises 630 to 900 and is all-in
Here I actually put gakins on KQ. Rob's call wasnt comforting either.
bilew222 has returned
2*crazyace is connected
crushmastac: folds
That's probably the easiest AA fold I've ever had to make.
RobWagsf: calls 630
*** TURN *** [Ks Qd Tc] [3d]
*** RIVER *** [Ks Qd Tc 3d] [3c]
*** SHOW DOWN ***
gakins: shows [Kh As] (two pair, Kings and Threes)
RobWagsf: shows [Kd Kc] (a full house, Kings full of Threes)
Turns out I was crushed on the flop as expected (except I was a little surprised to see AK in gakins' hand) and saved myself 800 chips, only to go out 10 hands later when 77 set, but TT set too.
RobWagsf collected 3015 from pot



This was actually earlier. Only about the 6th hand. It just boggles my mind how badly some people overplay flush draws. It almost boggles my mind as much as how often the FD gets there when I hold a monster.
