worst hand of the night, dont know what i was thinking....
I was calling cause i thought it would be a split for sure and he is just trying to get me off a hand..
5 made no sense, if i called on that dry flop, i had to have a K so he could continue on the turn with 5x....
couldnt put him on a 8 as well.

and he shows K8... blaaaah

Hello zumpar,

Add to full stack if playing BSS. :)

Preflop: Those hands ain't good for multiway pots. No way you can Call here, either squeeze it or just fold.

As played
Postflop: You don't bgeat anything on the river which shoves like that, his range hardly consist of 5x/8x which plays like that.

Best Regards.

As an aside – I'm fairly new to these hand evaluations. I know that we're not supposed to post the actual results of the hand so that they can be evaluated purely from a procedural perspective. However, I find that seeing the villain's hand makes it a lot easier (for me anyway) to understand what he was thinking and why he played each street the way he did.

I've seen more than a few wild a-- crazy bluffs at the NL2 tables, so without seeing the results you have no idea whether you're looking at a reasonable player's actions, or not.

My vote – post more results.

BTW - Thanks for the post zumpar. I like to see the hands where the submitter knows he made a mistake, AND LOST THE HAND, but still posts it anyway. _thumbsup:

yeah for sure you invest .30 going to the river. you proceed to call another 1.60 on the river with a tie at best. this is like 6x your initial investment. i wouldnt say your hand wins even 2 out of 6 times in that spot .calling for a tie is illogical for that amount.. bad call.
