All-In on a paired board and he didn't even have the top 2 pair. Granted this was a 5 person max table but it still seems like a foolish play to me. The funny thing is I thought about this a moment since my kicker was not top but I knew I had no choice but to call. This guy had been very aggressive post flop the whole time I played this table so the all-in shouldn't really surprise me.

So he bluffed with his whole stack ($23.60) in order to get a $2.50 pot and he only had 4 outs. One of his outs may have been counterfieted and none of his outs were good if you had a boat, which was very possible since the pot was unraised. Hmmm... yes there are really bad players out there.

NEVER GO BROKE IN AN UNRAISED POT!

Obviously, he was trying to grab the pot with a bluff after your weak lead in bet. But a bet of $4 would have accomplished the same thing without the risk of losing his entire stack.

Add him to your list and play on. Nice find.

Hehe, very true - thats the kind of player who needs to have a practice offline. If he'd played something like poker academy, a lovely big box pops up on your screen telling you that's a bad move, perhaps he may learn that way Wink

Either that or when he blows too many stacks betting high for little reason.
