Message: [QUOTE="canbora, post: 6892043, member: 9538"] Honestly? I THOUGHT, he THOUGHT I had overs, like AQ or something, and was just trying to push him off the pot. I THOUGHT he THOUGHT, I was weak and was doing this, and he was just pushing me out of the pot at the river. Again, a whole stack, to steal nearly a third, didnt seem fully ridiculous. What else would you do? anything smalerl and nearly the whole stack is in anyway. And to get reraised would just be sick. SO you do a full shove to make them make a "yes or no" decision. And I figured he did this vs a big raise was ... to mix it up. Just like we've been doing. Again, we traded paint over and over and over again. Something had to give. One of us had to fall eventually. I guess that someone was me lol. I didnt think he thought I had a big over pair. Its also reasonable, he had KJ and maybe he thought I had a J as well and wanted to push me out. I see people do that panic bet all the time. Again, I only "knew" the guy for 50 hands. I dont know his full profile. He was just a better player. I wasn't FULLY aware of that until this hand. And I fully realize we can go from my opponents opinion.. hahaha... but, just assuming we do, and assuming hes being fair or honest, as I said, he even said that was a crap sammich. I obviously know he could be just "feeding the fish" here, as i say. again... its just all in circles at this point. This was a $30 lesson that I bought and I'm making good use of my purchase. I never did it again. I've actually come to realize that in cash games, overpairs really aren't that great. Its better to have top top because then you take other cards out of contention. When you have a overpair, the whole board is there to get more dynamic. Its usuaslly bad news bears most of the time I'm finding. In tournies its great because you useually get into a reraise match, its one person, you're two short stacks all in, and you double up. In cash games about full stacks, long term, for thousands and thousands and thousands of hands, its long term odds. Its more difficult. [/QUOTE]
