Joe, It doesn't really matter what you're playing there, anybody who has played with you is calling a push on the flop in NL anyway

That? That's nothing. At least he had something that closely resembled justification of the cold call. If he flipped over J3s, that would be an example of everything that's wrong with limit poker (and is therefore everything that's right with PLAYING limit poker).

Wait, I forgot he was in the SB. That's an even easier call for him.

Acidjoe raises to (36) and is all-in <--- I did this since he was a LAG and might even call with a weaker hand. I think it looked weaker than raising to 15 or so which is what I would have done if his stack was deeper.

ACIDJOE-ITIS = "too scared to play flops with players worse than myself"

AcidJoe

LOL mouse..... I mean moose. I wasn't scared to play a flop, against that person I would have re raised to 15. His stack was 18. I made a play that I thought might induce a call with a weaker hand, it happened. I lost which happens as well. I guess in retrospect I could have just called his raise hit my A bet out and have him fold....
