Zab sent me a dollar on Carbon and I'm gunna grind that shit for a minute.

Wont let me post the image, but here's the basic break down.

88 hole cards

8 on the flop (top pair) flush draw board. pair comes up on the turn (i think) Giving me a top pair FH. 4ok is the only "better hand".

Total rake: $.18

Its a fold preflop. Unless he's really aggressive and raises often, you could only really call if no one has limped early. With 2 players limping, I think A5 suited is a call. After you called with A5 off, I would probably fold on the river. The only hand you would win against is like AQ - A10 and you'd lose to so many hands.

Great full house btw.

I think you played it like the guy you beat with a-5. Unless you can get a reference for 'unknown nuts,' you should slow play unless that's ur style.

If you get a Royal, the person you raise to is a better situation than slow playing since they could have a str8 flush and call ur all-in ne way.

Your problem is prolly playing A5 off to begin with. Suited yes - maybe. ITs such a shet starting hand especially into a raise. But on merge where everyones a donk - I can see you playing this hand this way - If I had a read on this guy Im paying him .10 to see his qq. But Id never be in the hand to begin with unless he was a complete donk or very weak player.

I'm cringing right now...suited yes, really??? What difference does that make. It gives him a couple more percentage points of winning, not nearly worth the investment.
