Hi mate.
Congratulations for keeping good results and make progress on poker online. Sometimes we play against strange players, or manic for life, or calling-stations or without moving in any street, in that spots for that kind of hands you have to bet after a check on a flop, and see what the oponent do, for try to win more chips, and not only the pot that are before the board. And in that kind of hands depending on the position on the table and the oponents that we face, sometimes can be stronge hands and vailable hands to play.

Sounds like you were on a very passive table,unless the blinds were too high to even have a stab at winning the pot.My poker has gone to rubbish these days and I have no patience now so I will definitely be putting in a bet if no one seems interested.

yea i had that happen in a freeroll at 888, also played a hand with AQ, 4 players stayed in with me, didn't hit anything, and they didn't also, i ended up winning with A high. weird how these things happen.

And i bet that this happened in games that doesnt have big value regarding prizes When you are playing a game that you need to be in it, as much as possible, nothing holds till river. Not that anyone would complain though, regardless the game, winning like that.

haha it happens mate but sometimes you will lose, by sometimes i mean a lot if you tend to call bet on flop and turn and river when you have low pairs then it is receipt for disaster but sometimes it works if you know the other players play book, like he loves to bet on turn and river with air, or bet big on flop but give up on turn and so on, anyway good luck at the tables hope you do well and make some good money mate, cheers have a nice day mate!

me thinks that key moment here is that your were playing fifty fifty's- often they are very passive, especially when multitabling regs-nits flood the tables. btw i liked the old dons way better that this 50/50 shaize. anyway best of luck at the tables and under the tables.
