The pre-flop play of fba-1001 and LawmakerDonk is questionable at best.
fba-1001's call of the all-in after all three players have called/raised his flop bet is abysmal.
Both of m1l2n's calls on the flop are terrible.
LawmakerDonk's flat call on the flop is terrible given the texture of the flop.
This hand is a great example of how profitable cash tables can be.After the bad beat an hour earlier, I temporarily stopped being an atheist for the duration of the turn and river cards. It seemed to work. Amen
