Believe me. Even though I knew I was well ahead I wanted him to fold. I was happy winning what was already out there with a hand I couldn't improve.
IMO his call was VERY STUPID but not that surprising at this level of play.
Again, not crying, I'm a big boy.
Reminds me of the reason why I'm not really cut out to play poker for big $$$'s.
I have a tough time reconciling doing everything correctly and still losing quite often just because of the math.

Not sure if you remember me, but you were kind enough to get me complimentary passes for each day on my 4-day visit to Hollywood Park in late 2013. I needed this trip to add Hollywood Park to my visit list, as they closed for good just a few weeks later. Somewhere on an old laptop I have a nice picture of you in the booth calling a race. Back then Texas Holdem was completely off my radar.
As to doing the math, I have to confess that despite my current level of success, I need more off-the-table study.
Best wishes in your poker journey!
