2/4 game on laddies i have c600 and other guy has 400 ish

Can only remember basic details but hand wnet as follows

I am in cut off with JJ and raise to 20 preflop
Button calls - no one else left in hand

Flop 68Q - two diamonds i think
I bet 40 ish and he calls

Turn Q

I bet 100 he calls

River J (woohoo)

I bet 100, he reraises to 269 and I call

He has 66 for 666QQ, and I have JJJQQ and he went on about my bad play - I pointed out that 2/3 of money went in when he was behind

Was the abuse justified?

He was slow playing and he abuses you for that, wally!

I think you've found yourself a bad loser, add him as a friend  ;D

Abuse is never justified!

Don't see how he can complain, especially as he's just calling. He'd have more of an arguement had he pushed in but being a calling station is always going to hurt.

Nice payday :)

He tried to milk you for as much as he could, and got unlucky on the river.  That's the risk he took.  No - he wasn't right to abuse you, but I guess he was really chastising himself for letting you catch up.

tell him to F off

I gave him more abuse it has to be said - but more because I never complain at the table about bad beats and I pointed out that he only raised when behind and he should look at his own play and would've avoided the river with a raise on turn. H ea lso said aI hit a lucky 2 outer and didn't like it when I pointed out it was a 4 outer lol

what was the abuse?

just about fishing, being lucky, i'd lose it all etc etc and denying that he played it at all badly - that's all. Just riles me when I basicall y get called a fish by someone who has lost a hand thru thier own play. I take far more bad beats than I ever give and never complain at the time

I get over it by kicking the dog first thing in the morning to make up for any bad beats I get that day

Who?

The dog?

he prefers a kicking

Abuse like this amuses me, the other day i got slagged off for pushing over limper very short (about 3 bb's) in a sng and our limper calls with j10s and loses the race. He then types obscenitys about how a6 is a poor hand, hmmm ok so i have pushed short with a better hand being called by a donk limper with a worst hand and im the fish??????

He hit a two-outer on you and you return the favour by hitting a two-outer on him. You get abuse for getting as lucky as he did. Your oppo's point is ridiculous. By the way you can't fish if you bet....that's just er...playing well.

4 outer!! :P

what was he saying was bad about it?

raise on cut off with JJ - nowt wrong with that

Pot size bet on flop - maybe a wee bit too big a bet but that's nit picking. A continution bet here is perfectly fine

Bet on the turn - For me this is the only really debatable move you made. When he calls your bet on the flop there is a very good chance he either has a Q or he is on a flush draw. So the Q on the turn has to be seen as a scare card by yourself.

All in on the river - This plays itself so nothing wrong there.

So what was he actually saying you did wrong?

He's probably just hacked off that he played it cute and you hit a 2 outer on the river

Hope u didnt educate him


I find extreme sarcasm works better here

I find agreeing with them is better.

Something along the lines of "Sorry mate just got lucky there. I'm on a bit of a roll today I bust AK with A9 and bust AA with pocket 5's earlier too"   ;D

I kinda ruled out a Q as I reckon he would've reraised my continuation bet so it was either an over pair or set. The Q on turn gave me chance to represent the Q and scare him off an overpair but once he called I wasn't putting any more in the pot, unless I hit the river as he was not scared of the second Q and I thought he probably had the set

I returned to play on Laddies today and i too received abuse off 2 seperate games...must be the time of month for them ..I almost asked for C Kev to come rail me..then thought sod it ...water off a ducks back..
