Neither is K9. Yet he was still able to call the pre-flop raise and the flop raise without hitting anything.

I made the pre-flop call because I was getting 3:1 for my money, and the all-in play had been non-thinking all night.

But to call after the flop, and lose to runner/runner, that is a bad beat. If I'd lost to the all-in, which I maybe didn't have to call, then I would've taken poor play.

That was a big big big call to make preflop. preflop poor play, on the flop that guys was allways going to call, because he prob thinks he is pot comit.
What do you mean, thats unrelated!

Yes, I accept feedback that the call pre-flop wasn't great. But I made the call based on the information I had taken on the player going all in. You all know that you can get a read on a player, and you will call with marginal hands, because you know you have them beat.

But I don't think you are ever that pot committed (he had $1200 left) that you need to call when you have absolutely nothing.

You were also only getting much closer to 2:1 on you money pre-flop, not 3:1.
