lost a huge pot as an 88 percent favorite
I guess the title is the thread
Live 1/3 at Rivers in Des Plaines
Holding pocket 9s, pre-flop a guy raises $20, I just call
Flop is 9c5d2c. I have the nuts, only worried about a club draw
Same better leads out for $65. I decide to make him think long and hard about his draw. I make it $220
He goes into the tank for 3 or 4 minutes. Decides to go all in. I have $500, he covers me
A flush only completes 35% of the time, and if the board pairs or I get the case 9 I beat the flush anyway. I believe I'm a 75% favorite, and decide not to fold the nuts
He flips over KcKs. My mind reels. I'm not a 75% favorite. I'm an 88% favorite.
Turn comes with a club. I'm still a 77% favorite
River is a club
God damn!!
(I'd do it again)
