yourFish

Here's some of the worst poker I've ever seen. I know yourDa of old. He used to play limit, and was one of the biggest fish ever to (dis)grace the .25/.50 game. Like me, he moved over to STTs, but unlike me, he never bothered learning how not to suck.

This is new from him though. His MO used to be to limp into every pot. Now he's discovered the raise button.

PRE-FLOP
tamasscg folds, takecare99 folds, yourDa bets $250

WTF? 11BB raise!

Winshester folds, Bawghert77 folds, zac26atak folds, Dr Zen folds, Pokernix1 calls $230.


Double WTF!!

There is no hand you want to call with here but not ship it in except maybe AA.

FLOP [board cards: 5C KD 3S ]
Pokernix1 checks, yourDa bets $2,700 and is all-in

Just a slight overbet.

Now have a guess what he has. You're thinking he must have AK, right? Maybe a set of kings, AA, set of 3s or 5s. All will be revealed.

Pokernix1 calls $1,230 and is all-in.

Well, this guy must have some sort of king, right? At the least a king?

PRE-FLOP
yourDa calls $30, Winshester folds, Bawghert77 folds, zac26atak folds, Dr Zen calls $30


I have QTs. It's a bit loose to call with, but yourDa will pay me handsomely if I flop big.

tamasscg calls $15, takecare99 checks.

FLOP [board cards: 7H JC 2H ]

That's an okay flop. I have a flush draw and an over. I will call a small bet, I suppose.

tamasscg checks, takecare99 checks, yourDa bets $210

wat

In case you're not clear why this is bad: consider what yourDa might have here and what others might have. If yourDa has a strong hand, like AJ or 22, he will fold out everything weaker that might have paid him. If he has a weak hand, he's asking to be called or shoved over by stronger hands.

Dr Zen folds, tamasscg folds, takecare99 folds.

But no one had one.

This is more like vintage yourDa:

PRE-FLOP

I'm going to tell you now, yourDa has A3. This is typically awful poker. He should fold that shit superfast.

Winshester folds.

FLOP [board cards: AC 8S 8D ]
yourDa checks, Bawghert77 bets $180, yourDa calls $180.

I HAS PURRRRRRRRRR.

TURN [board cards: AC 8S 8D 2H ]
yourDa checks, Bawghert77 bets $375, yourDa calls $375.

At this point, anyone not drunk, stoned or demented knows he's beat. Your opponent raised pre, bet the flop and turn decently and you still think your TPNK is ahead? Think again, Mr Retardofish. He cannot even win if he pairs his 3 because the board has paired. He is dead to an 8 if villain's kicker is bigger than an 8, and a 7 or 2 if it isn't.


RIVER [board cards: AC 8S 8D 2H 7H ]
yourDa checks, Bawghert77 bets $645 and is all-in, yourDa calls $645.

SHOWDOWN
Bawghert77 shows [ KS AS ]

The only person surprised by that was yourDa.

Did he once call someone down and they showed a bluff in this kind of spot?

yourDa shows [ 3D AD ]

but it was sooooooooooooooooooooooooooted.

yourDa comes from Brisbane. WAINS?
