One of the many mistakes for today (i think): To justify myself, I have to say that he just called the flop and didn't show any aggression (neither on the flop nor preflop), and I just shoved on the turn... I still have top pair on this board...

But what kind of players make such a call(?!) - "I call no matter what happens next, i have A8s". :unsure:

Any thoughts on the situation please, share, if you wish.

If, indeed, that happens, sometimes the showdown doesn't favor us, for example, I don't make that call with almost a possible ladder of my opponent and/or color, but if you were, I would have checked and in the end if the As gives I would think about it. In the end you had more stack than him. But it's well played, it's just that luck favored someone else and not you.

I don't think you played that wrong . Just incredibly unlucky against a calling station:/
Most of the time you will get his chips

May be...

What do you think about next one: I should have raised before the flop, ah, but I'm 99.9% sure he'll call. Still, he has 74s, uh, how do you fold such a thing...


As far as I understand...he has played 14 hands and they are all limps...1

Wow that is sick . I think the only way you might get that luckbox to fold is on the flop by reraising allin to protect your set from flushdraw.
But who knows he might still call and use the cashout option if he's far behind .

They still call (most of them), no matter what...

That's a play money practice... There is no "cash out"

I need to work on folding sets too...

I am not sure if it really make sense to analyze this more deeply.
It's play money. That's also why 5 people want to see a flop on a 6-max table.

But overall, nothing to worry about since someone put in all his stack with just 7% equity LOL. 🤣

But indeed, someone else could have a set, especially in a limped pot.

So be careful in a similar situation once you switch to real money some day.

I will analyze it as follows...
It's play money.
Yes, they are, it's easy for them to play there (call/fold)... But for me is a chalenge... as you see...

No worryes - as they lost their chips, it have to wait 4 hours for new 15k to play... lol (4h is good time to pass the tilt).
But indeed, someone else could have a set, especially in a limped pot.
Quite a common situation...

Buddie, do you think I will ever switch to real money at all... (My question is a quite serious).

I played a lot with play money, than started to play all freerolls I could. When I got a small bankroll I started with the real money. I never broke since then. Never made a deposit at all. But I'm always disciplined about BR management.

Well, I don't know he probably thought they would split the pot or he would win to the autopsy or he knows you very much how you play because of that he played to the end but it's terrible when you lose like that on the river but the opponent certainly played very badly yesterday I was eliminated in one of the tournaments also before the river I was older on the river I came a card and he put together two pairs and I lost and took 34th place in an expensive tournament and he was because this hand became the chip leader, it's a pity such moments spoil the game
