The best situation in poker?

[amcgrath1uk]

I have a similar story...

Playing 1st ever live game in a casino.. a piddly crapshoot $3 PL rebuy... rebuy ends and split tables, move straight into BB

Look at my cards  and think insta-fold. all fold except SB who limps..

flop is  , we both check

turn is ( giving me a nice boat) we both check, both after thought

river is a 

on the river he raises minimum amount... I think for about a minute... he pot limit raises... and we both continue raising till we are both all in

he turns...  .. I grimace.. and turn mine over

he( or maybe was a she I couldnt tell) has a gutted look

INSTANT table chip leader

I think thats a classic squeeze play.

Yes I think that was what he was trying but a bit silly though under the circumstances and holding 22's . I remember a WPT episode when a short stacked Chip Reese moved in for about a quarter of the two big stacks chips, James Tiffin an amateur flat called in the SB with queens and then Barry Grenstein moved all in over the top with AK from the BB. I remember thinking at the time if he moved in there  BG would probable have folded. BG eliminated them both when he flopped a boat. I always remember this episode because Randy Jensen was playing and after BG re-raised him he said something like 'I'm going to find those kids(referring to his charity donations) and punch 'em'. The whole audience was shocked, I just p*ssed myself laughing.
