Re: An Exercise in Hand Reading

Yeah but they dont think about it like that, if they have quads there checking/calling to the river, thats most players anyway. I was watching a poker programme the other week to emphasise this "hand to big to bet" brigade.

Somebody had A9c and called a raise

flop 9s 9d Jc

He checks and other guy bets and he calls

Turn is Qc

So now board is 99JQ with him having A9 and the nut flush draw.

He puts out a bet and the commentator says...." I think he has too big a hand to bet"

I immediately switched programmes because I must have forgot poker commentators annoy me more than anything thats every annoyed me.

Anyway.. Yeah pretty much spot on should be JJ or KK with jacks probably more likely as you cant really put someone on quads can you?
