    Nut Flush draw snap call
  • edited October 2010
    he probs has some kind of weird combo draw. But don't be surprised if he turned over 7s or something. People play weird he probably hit a set and thought wowwwwwweeee i flat, instead of looking at the flop.

    In Response to What would you put him? on and would you call here?:
    It would appear to me that 1/ you have just been mined like a good'un. 2/ He/she has larger overpair. 3/ He/she reckons you are weak and wants to re-represent broken flush draw with set / 2 pair. 4/ They reckon you are paranoid and can bang you off the hand with air like a-q ( really good play imo, scary ) 5/ Pot/ego stuck don't want to back down. Therefore call and make the plaintiff cry of most players when you lose that you hate playing jacks. Failing that fold and give them some credit. This is a marginal spot. Ultimately there are no definitive answers to questions like this so call and learn. It's ok. One day you win and praise your intuitive skill. Another you lose and think i knew it. This is what poker is like. Don't be afraid to learn. Afterall it is supposed to be fun. You must lose to win in time .Seeing as you are playing within your bankroll i say call and learn. But what do i know . Fa :)  But whatever you do don't be afraid. Phil Ivey does not possess magic powers. He is human and spent this entire his life playing cards. Cool huh ?

    alternatively, Ivey puts his opponent on a range/works out what % of the time they are bluffing and works out if the call is correct - although he prob does alot more than this

    i wish i had magic powers
