the £22 bounty hunter...is king high ever good here?
obviously i realise the villain in this hand is a regular poster so therefore please avoid the bog standard jumping to his defence cos he posts a lot nonsense. we have been at the same table for about 2-3 rounds nothing too out of order as the blinds are too big for any real poker to be played

like i said this is a terrible call in my opinion but i would just like to know what others think on the hand above. sorry it didnt paste out as clear as normal but there were no flush draws that could influence the call.
2 questions
what do you think of the call that villain makes with just king high on the turn?
can king high ever be expected to be ahead in this spot?
only posting because of the discussion following the hand.
Comments
1 the villain had to much to drink on the weekend
2 yes when it wins
King high can be good against a serial blind stealer/raiser...
He hit, big deal, get over it... Why post the villains name and comments about jumping to his defence? You obviously want a reaction because he sucked out on you...
I think this thread is more suited to Area 51
2 that really is a silly question ;o)
VVUL huuuuume,and yes i wouldnt be happy with a call in this either.Soz for ya mate,dav
If a guy calls me here, i do appreciate the call, and i am happy because i got my money in ahead. If he hits the river, so be it, suck it up and move on to the next game.
PS how come you saw cowgomoos tounge in cheek remark but not mine?
Typical bad beat thread sigh, I did not call with K high btw - I have a pair of 6's with a King kicker, why, cos it was against you and K high is normally good here v you, also I don't feel like grinding with 9BB - Im lazy, what can i say. Finally I know the K is coming, poker is easy when you can see the cards and im going for the Orford flush. Be gratefull I called, why you moaning? Im not drawing dead, do i call there normally, no, do i call v a LAG, yes - hence the call.
As for your comments about my posts being a lot of nonsense, not very nice is it, especially coming from someone who hardly ever posts!! Also, not nice to leave villain's name in the post, if you posted more you may know that!!
I hope this post is not filled with to much nonsense for you btw, can't believe I wasted time writing a response to you, I am sad and have to much time on my hands.
BTW ure scary as well
Phil is a troll and should be ignored. I know i will from now on, i have seen enough of his posts to make this judgement.
Dylan's comments are fair enough, and it is not the done thing to post the name of a villain in a hand when you are criticising the villian's play. (rightly, or wrongly)
I stand by my first comments that this thread belongs in Area 51, the OP's intentions seem to be to ridicule the villian rather than seeking proper strategic advice.
My final post on this thread
Hoggers
Sometimes king high is good in this situation.
Hugh-mongoose mis read by Dylan.
But he was due 1 (or a few 100)
U just have to play the hand as u see it - if u want the "over time" response, of course it is never a good call over time.
But mtts r like 1 off situations, u get 1 life, u got it in good, happy days.
VUL! - stop bluffing calling stations!!!!
