    MP, 10 handed 1-2 NL cash game.

    Dealt: K-K

    EP rasie to 12.
    Hero smooth calls.
    Player to the immediate left smooth calls.


    Flop: 9-9-8 rainbow.

    EP Cbets 25
    Hero raises to 75
    Player to left smooth calls.
    EP folds.

    Turn: blank.

    Hero checks.
    Player to left checks.

    River: blank

    Hero checks.
    Player to left bets


    How much would you call, if anything? I made a freaking tilt call on this hand, knowing i was out flopped!!! Im pretty sure it wasnt a difficult fold. Can this ever be anything other than trips or better to justify any kind of call?

    BTW, that has to be the worst feeling in poker. To know you're beat, be pissed about it and call anyway. Has anyone else ever tilt called?

    tilt call all the time, huge leak for me, i spew chips finding out on different streets too, at least you didnt check call the turn if this monkey bet

    anyways, no, it can never be a hand that youre beating unless the person to your left is really bad and has JT, T7, etc...

    and even then, i am fairly certain that they do not bet the river with their busted straight because they were bad enough to overcall on that board and probably are mentally blocked when it comes to poker

    also, whats in the pot? like 180 or something?

    i might call 50 dollars...and hate myself for it

    No it's not always a 9. Sometimes it's 88

    Have I ever tilt called?


    Bwah hah hah.... Sometimes I feel like one of those people that lack the ability to make changes in future behavior based on past experiences...."Hey a flame...the last one burned my skin, but maybe this one won't!" "Wow, I have KK, and this guy called my 5XBB from the small blind, and an Ace came on the flop....and he's betting into me...hmmm....let's just call one more time and see how bad it feels so I will never, ever do it again!"

    my question to you scuba

    if this guy shoves, on a rainbow board here...
    are you tempted to call assuming that his range includes TT+?

    this guy turned his hand face up with his call imo, not the best play on his part.

    Your missing the point. I have publicly shown a terribly call on my part. And i didnt put alot of thought into the hand, i knew I was beat, and tilt called.

    OK. I'll play along. No areaman, I am not tempted to call a shove on the river thinking I am ahead of his range.
