very true, but i made a point to batkin in a post in Poker clinic, that in this spot shoving, i am getting called by any villan having a pair........ although yes i had better odds here than in that other hand by far. but still, just goes to show that bluffing is -ev at these stakes.

hmmmmmmmmmm i didnt say it was always going to work and you had to pick your opponents. Its a suprising call though with that hand! although you had so many outs!
It wasnt a bad shove at all it was just unlucky

And love the FAO BATKIN

DOHHHHHHH

See you shove all in here with ace high, trying to represent the flush.

Yet when you flopped quads (clinic) you checked flop and turn.

So you obviously never have a flush here, coz u wud try and maximise your win.........

The play is pretty easy to read. This isn't really a problem at this level though, as people only look at their own cards. This is all you need to do.

Bet/raise when u r strong, check/fold when you are weak, check/call when u aren't sure!
