playing against a donkey
Ok was playing live last night as usual. Down to the last three. I have played with the second chip leader on many an occassion and i know hes a good player, the chip leader to my left however i hadnt played with him, but i knew how his brother played. His brother was a very loose player who often connected and was a very lucky player, so i wasnt sure on how to take him.
So on my BB i look down to Q 10 suited, the chip leader had said he was calling before the dealer even dished out the cards and SB folded. I checked not overly confident with Q 10 and as small stack though maybe if i see a flop and connect and go all in he'll fold.
Flop: Q, 9, 4
So ive hit top pair with a reasonable kicker. I shove all in being first to act, he still hasnt looked at his cards, but unbelieveably calls. Im pretty sure im ahead, and what does he show, 9,4.
In the end he had a full house and i was out. I couldnt believe the luck of this family. He then won the heads up in pretty much the same manner.

I assume you were really short stacked for him to be getting the odds to play without looking at his cards. Either way, he's been incredibly lucky to hit 2 pair on the flop to take you out.
Get him next week mate!
and ill get him tonight theres a new venue for the league and its in his town so im going just to beat him lol
Given the way he played that hand last night, I'd have been a bit annoyed with him, even if I'd doubled up. I cannot understand why he wouldnt give you and the game the respect it deserves for being the final 3. If it was me, I'd want to win knowing i'd outplayed my opponent, not because he suddenly decided to play a hand for half his stack blind.
Hopefully tonight you have your revenge, and do so when he is playing his hand properly mate
