KK cracked by nut flush on the river
Tuesday, November 25th, 2008 | AK suited, all-in, donkey, nut flush | No Comments
I’m doing quite fine this evening. I’m even hitting rivers, normally not one of my specialities 
To illustrate this, see the attached video. I pick up
on the big blind, and see a raise to 1$ and a call. I decided just to call and not to raise, despite of my bad position. Afterwards maybe the good decision: the guy with KK would probably have reraised me all-in preflop. Not sure if I would have folded that, but Q6 would probably have. Well, so I just called.
The flop didn’t hit me, but I picked up a nice nut flush draw (+ I certainly got some additional outs because of my 2 overcards). The guy in first position decided to play it quick: he immediately pushed all-in with his overpair. The next one flat called (what was he actually thinking? Top pair with pretty good kicker will be enough? Wouldn’t think so, pal)
Ok, my turn! Why should I ever fold this? I got lots of outs plus the pot odds are just too good to let this slip. So I called and also just called the remaining bets of the player with Q6. Maybe it was a better move to push that guy all-in straight away, but ok.
The turn came a blank, but the river offered me a big smile 
So I took down a nice pot.
damn, didn’t see that coming
