..what are they?  Surely any 2 can win, as long as they are suited. Thought I
got on to a good table when I saw this...but the bugger did a hit and run. 

I post this to show you how even a donkey like me could win at these sort of
stakes.  Great preflop call, 4.5 BBs with K4 suited in EP when its 8 handed....

And god only knows what gtevan had to be able to underbet so much at the turn,
with the possible flush draw out there and K4 boy passively calling the flop
bet...indicating either a monster or a draw...push or fold given the stacks for
gtevan at turn, surely?

I actually had Gtevan on a boat with that small turn bet, trying to suck in the
flush draw...Alas, it just proves anything can happen in this game.  Pity the
table broke up 2 hands later....They dont come any eaiser than this one.

Not exactly sure what he was doing....he had $30 (5BBs), sat out for a while,
and then posted both BB and dead SB in MP....I suppose he was hoping to steal
the blinds, and figuring he would be getting the odds if called..which brings us
to the question: why post BB and a dead SB when you dont need to, with such a
small stack? 

I suppose the call might not be too bad from the BB if it closes the
betting...but to call with K4 with a few active players behind is a joke, right?

I thought with rampaging, you hope to enter the hand as a slight dog at
least...25, welll...:-)

It is that extra button, not coded into the software, but nevertheless often
in evidence. The self-destruct button.
