I was in a $4, 6 player Ring game going in with the minimum of $1.20 due my shrinking stack (under $10). After 90 hands I up around $2.33 and going to quit play at 100 hands. On hand 98 I had pocket K's. I raise the limp to 5 BB and he calls. I have note on him, based on 20 or so hands this session that says he likes to play a lot of hands and gets aggressive when he has the nuts. So far so good.
The flop is Td Jc Qc. My K's are still best but there is a straight or straight draw out there. I bet 1/2 the pot and this player RR all-in. Crap I think. He does have a wide range and based on his limp I doubt he has AK and I wonder if he might have a straight from the low end. I tend to forget that in his past play that I've seen, when he has the nuts, or apparent nuts, he bets aggressively. I decide it's unlikely he has the straight and I call. BIG MISTAKE. Indeed he does have a straight, holding Kh 9s. I'm feeling very bad as I've gone from $2.33 up to minus $1.80. Grrrrrr.
Unfortunately I have no-one but myself to blame for that. I knew when he hits he suddenly bets big, I'd not seen him bluff, and basically he overbets instead of slow or medium playing his good hand. I should have folded my pocket K's at his all-in, PERIOD!
Over and out.
