ah, what can you say? he's wants  a double up and will probably have 2 live cards. As long as you don't have a pair he's essentially fine and can take that shot.

And don't call yourself luckbox when you're not lucky, it means someone who's actually lucky will now have to use the "Hadacehighbutlostarace" username.

*edit, this is obviously an attempt at humour in the early morning...then again...this is also quite obviously a bad beat story ;)

his play is terrible. if he's gonna call the all-in re-raise anyway he may as well just set you in. but uhm. 50p?

Being a newbie over here, I have to admit this is something I don't understand.

If you didn't want him to call, why go all in with a rag ace ?

I mean, with any 2 cards it's , what , 60 / 40 in your favour ?  And if he has a pair, then you're in trouble with only 3 outs ( probably (( and excluding the flush/straight, obviously )))

So why berate him ?  If you're looking to double up then you couldn't ask for a better call.

Sorry if I'm sounding stupid.
