Falling asleep during a hand

[tenbob]

Fully deserved, should have backed off this at the turn, that what chatting and playing poker does. In fairness i gave him credit for a big ace pre flop.

Why would he (Andres_98) raise with 6, 5 unsuited? He was lucky he flopped a nut straight. I wonder if he would have chased straight draw? I thought for sure somebody had an 8 or a 4 when I was reading this.

Tough hand.

Raise more preflop. Why are you only betting $1 post flop??? This is a HUGE mistake. 95% of the time you are WAY ahead here and cheap cards hurt you. So what, this time he flopped the straight, if he had flopped an open-ended draw, you weak $1 bet gives him amazing odds to catch up and hit.

His min-raise on the flop doesn't mean that much as a lot of players do this with hands like A8, K8, 99-JJ, etc.

Again, your turn bet is WAY too small. His min-raise on the turn tells you something now and you need to consider possible hand. A4 is an option or of course 65. I hate your turn min re-raise...this play is just bad.

Chicubs i capped the betting the WHOLE way, it was a $1-$2 limit game.
Nothing much more i could have done, it was expensive as it gets for him to play.

Err, ever hear of blind stealing?

Err, ever hear of limit holdem?

(sorry, couldn't resist that)

After the capped flop I check/call this down, more in fear of a set than the straight.
