Vietnam has just doubled up and has resumed being a thorough pain, he's raising relentlessly, and always calls any 3 bet.

Most of the bets placed so far seem more like hopeful punts rather than value spots

Table 11, seat 6, so seat 6 works, as I can see the board, and other hands at showdown, reasonably well from here.
It's so embarrassing in seat 2 or 9 or similar to keep saying "err, what has he got?" or asking the dealer "is the flop 3 clubs or 3 spades?"
why don't you wear glasses?
great write ups by the way.

First break, 41,000 from 30,000 starting. Blinds now go 300-600.
This is playing super fast, and a very disappointing 61 entries so far, so I think we gotta default to gamble mode.
Vietnam has 120,000 and is busting folks left right and centre with all sorts, so you can keep the excellent puns coming for a while yet.

Just heard a great story from the horses mouth, but too long to tell now, will post it when I have more time. Will,google it to check it first, but think it's true.

I have.....
Everyone limps for $10 (almost everyone always limps) & when it gets to me I make it $60 to play. I've not been particularly active, but generally raise my Button.
SB calls, BB calls, (these are the other 2 big stacks, $1,600 & $3,500). Everyone else folds. So far, so good.
Flop is.....
So I've flopped the abso nuts, plus the J-10 2 pair, but I don't have spades or backdoor clubs. I do have extensions with the 2 pair J-10 but they could very easily be "dead" extensions.
It goes check, check, & I make it $200. Think I have to bet here.
I'm a little surprised when the SB now check raises me, as he's very nitty. He made it (approx) $1,000.
Pretty sure I know his hand, & whilst I'm digesting this news, the BB (VERY aggro & playing $3,500) now re-pots it.
Ooh-er mother.
It's all-in for me to call, &, in my case, the main pot will be around $4,500 ignoring the side pot.
You'll be astonished to know that there was a very strong (though perfectly civil) difference of view on the hand, with 3 saying it was a no-brainer call & 2 saying it was a trivial straightforward fold.
In my spot, what is the correct play here, & why?
Why do you have to bet?
If you are gonna fold to a check raise, is it not better to check behind and hope for a safe turn card and then re evaluate?

Get another pair? I have readers for reading/monitors but the TV at 8' away was a problem with or without readers. So the optician prescribed another pair and works a treat for TV and card tables

Button raise 5 limpers with A-K-Q-10, all fold except Crusty.
Flop is Q-Q-A.
I lead, Crusty flats.
Same on turn, both all-in on river.
He has the same hand, A-Q.
Such an anti climax to flop so huge and chop.

Please don't bust, Tikay.
I dread reading the 'sigh, gone' posts.
