    I sometimes wonder what people are thinking when they get caught up losing money in situations like this. WTF is your opponent thinking?

    On the flop: "Ehh, that check raise is just a play, he's totally kidding.
    On the turn: "Huh, he did it again. I STILL think he's kidding. LOL this guy is an idiot I will take all of his moneys!!!!!1"

    NH sir.

    Sweet.
    It's not what's inside that counts. Have you seen what's inside?
    Internal organs. And they're getting uglier by the minute.

    I think this is a good line to use against overly aggressive opponents with strong hands out of position. In a live mixed game last week, I played NL Holdem hand where I called a button raise from an aggressive opponent in the big blind with 5-6 offsuit. The flop came 3, 4, 7 with two spades, I check-raised and the guy called. I checked an offsuit jack on the turn, he bet again, I raised and he folded.

    This is a good example of how 25NL can be completley crushed. I would love it if my opponents went all in with middle pair/crappy kicker when i have the 100% STONE NUTS.
