Oh, come on...

[AceLosesKing]

Playing in an online $500 freeroll. 3000 entrants. 71 left. Top 48 get money.

I'm sitting on 38k in chips. The average stack is 44k. Blinds 3000/6000.

I'm sitting in like... no 2 position, I think. I'm dealt pocket Aces. Straightaway I raise it to 12k to see a flop. Two callers, both out chip me (60k and 44k).

Flop:

I'm first to act, I push all in for 24ish k. 60k calls me with .

River: .

Come the hell on.

66th, if anyone was wondering

[bennymacca]

go and speak to Rob D about calling all in with a flush draw...

LOL it was probably him

[Scotty]

Were the two callers the SB and BB? I'm gonna take a guess that it was one late position caller, and the BB who completed.

your min raise gave them a biiig sniff too.


It's possible that the player with 3 5 might have folded preflop to a more respectable raise



Have you noticed the amount of girls that if they do raise it's a min raise? What's up with that?

[Scotty]

Thinking the same thing with the min raise, Pete. But wanted to get an idea of the pot size pre-flop before dissecting it any further.

[BigPete33]

I just wanted to call aaron a girl for min raising

[Scotty]

I know

[bennymacca]

i hate min raisers

if ur gonna raise, be a man/(manly girl) and shove ur chips in there.

lol i have a big argument with cooky at the willo about this, so now he min raises my big blind every time LOL

[Garth Kay]

Min raise pre flop?? Pffftttt!!!!
It's NO LIMIT people.
The only time you should be min raising is on the turn!!!!!!!

[bennymacca]

i think the only time a min raise is good is when you hold the nuts, and the whole table is still playing, and you are in late position.

a min raise means that everyone will probably still call, and fatten the pot up for a big move on the turn or river.
