There's always those players that try to slow play their Aces and at times it's the right thing to do and then there's times when you try to go for the glory (allin) and there's the player who takes that challenge and you lose that way. Guess all I'm saying is you win some and you lose some. Doesn't matter how you play it!

i reckon this is probably a case of a misclick. there is no sane reason to call off the all in bet with no pair and no draw on that board. he didn't shove to get you to fold he called off with nothing. just my guess at what happened there
Typical micro stakes play, guy just decides to donk his stack with suited connectors no matter what comes out on the flop because he's running out of patience and because he doesn't care about 2 bucks. Thing is, he wasn't thinking in term of big blinds... This kind of bingo is what makes live poker more fun than online poker. Non sense plays happen live too, but I've never seen such a retarded play live though.

....It was certainly not a misclick. They took a long time before calling the all in on the flop.
To make it even worse... it was on a Zoom table, so the "running out of patience" explanation is unlikely too - just fold and get a new hand...
The whole situation was very confusing to me. I posted this, not because I was annoyed at losing my $1.57 or whatever it was... just in sheer amazement at the play.

Posted by Macubaas: Definately a bad beat but my question is what on earth has the villain in head to go all in with that hand on that board!!
I know the level is micro so you should expect some crazy moves but this is simply nuts.
same with me, always in my mind what is in his brain call with that card when hit nothing on flop !!! Too many bad beat like that or similar happen to me. And I never got an answer .
