joespi: bets 340 Sharphin: calls 340 SimpLe-SI-08 has activated his time bank SimpLe-SI-08 said, "wow" SimpLe-SI-08 said, "this is sick" SimpLe-SI-08 said, "really think i'm beat" SimpLe-SI-08: folds
Ok now here is my logic for folding an overpair on that board. The guy in the BB flat called my re-raise which I really didnt like, then he led out on the flop with a bet just over half-pot? The question I asked myself is - what did he call my re-raise with? If he called it with AK is he really gonna lead out on the flop, especially with 2 initial raisers behind him? THEN the guy UTG flat calls the BB's flop bet. I mean wtf has just happened? I really have to be beat. One of them has to have AA, KK or a set of jacks unless they are both serious fish. So I elected to fold instead.
*** TURN ***[J 5 3 ] [9 ]
joespi: bets 300 Sharphin: calls 300
*** RIVER *** [J 5 3 ] [9 ] [9 ]
joespi: checks Sharphin: checks
*** SHOW DOWN ***
joespi: shows [K K ] (a pair of Kings) Sharphin: mucks hand joespi collected 1890 from pot
Made me so flipping happy. Was jumping around the room like a mad man. Frankly that is my most memorable hand of the tens of thousands I've played. The thing that made me even happier is that not a lot of people can put something like that together and bring themselves to folding.

Yes pretty nice,
Being able to put down cards that would normally make you go into an all-in-fury is one of the first sign of getting to the next levels of playing poker.
