Default Pathetic slowplay

Sure I lost the hand but I am posting this in Glory corner because I lost a lot less than I should have if this villian had any brain.

First mistake, donk limps and then cold calls my raise pf. Had he at least 3 bet me he could have got at least a few more dollars out of me and thats IF i didnt decide to just shove all in right there.

Also his attempt at a value bet on the river is appalling. Sure I called it, who isnt going to call 15c on a $3 pot. But he probably could have gotten more out if any A or KK like what I had.

But I should be thankful, his woeful play saved me a lot of money

Whenever a donk does this to me I always type in the chatbox "thanks for making it cheap!".

I try not to feed the fishes

I figure he probably thinks his tactic his good, after all he got me to bet $1 on the flop right? And I even called the 15c river bet, what an idiot!!

The less he knows about his poor play, the more money I stand to make off him.

He had a plan , it failed. Unlucky flop for him. Poor guy. He hits his 2 outer which cost him alot of money.

Calling him a donk is going a bit far... you got very lucky in some ways . I mean how much do you pay if no Ace comes?

If he knew u have KK tho , man he would be kicking himself for his pf slowplay

However , like they say ..

Standard play = money
Sneaky play = big win or big loss

Not sure what playstyle pays more over time Im guessing standard play ..
but luck definately factors alot more in the sneaky plays.


BTW Limp Re-raise pf is a good way to bluff ( high risk donk play coming up ) The Villian lay down JJ ( according to him )

There is really no excuse for not reraising PF, I have already raised so I am repping a hand, if I am bluffing he is unlikely to get more out of me anyway unless I get lucky and hit big on the flop in which case he is beat. If I have a hand then I am calling a reraise and instantly he has a bigger pot to work with.

On the flop the only move he could have made that wouldnt have given away the fact that he had me beat would be to open raise. If he check raises I know for sure I am beat and lay it down, if he check calls a non drawy board I am pretty sure he has the A, maybe with a crappy kicker but still I know I am beat. A raise however could be a standard cbet with low pockets or junk or an actual hand.

River bet is absolutely atrocious, sure he gets an extra 15c out of me but he should be making it more or its really not worth the effort, in fact if he is not going to bet out here a check would have been much better as it may have enticed me to make a semi bluff thinking he was weak.

Calling him a donk is being too nice. LOOOOOOOL at super-slowplayaments.

Best response is type "nh" into chatbox.

I looked at hand again a bit closer to see what his main mistake ( after the pf slowplay )

He stuffed up big time by betting the flop. WHAT AN IDIOT

If hes going to slow play AA pf , do it right and slow play it on flop too for the love of donkness lol and pray a K comes on the river to save his plan from utter failure.


As he played tho .. River = ALL IN you fold .

He doesnt end up on forums as a joke unless you had backdoor flush of course or str8
