    Default Too ballsy?

    First hand at the table. I felt if he had a hand, he'd have raised at some point prior. This smelled to me like a big stack trying to push people around (not to mention that his chat as he pushed read something like "the river man rides again!").

    Party Poker No-Limit Hold'em, $ BB (9 handed) converter

    SB ($24.45)
    BB ($49.1)
    UTG ($62.95)
    UTG+1 ($131.45)
    MP1 ($50)
    Hero ($15)
    MP3 ($32.35)
    CO ($43.25)
    Button ($124.25)

    Preflop: Hero is MP2 with J, 8. SB posts a blind of $0.25. Hero posts a blind of $0.5.
    1 fold, UTG+1 calls $0.50, MP1 calls $0.50, Hero (poster) checks, 2 folds, Button calls $0.50, SB (poster) completes, BB checks.

    Flop: ($3) J, 6, T (6 players)
    SB checks, BB checks, UTG+1 checks, MP1 checks, Hero bets $2, Button folds, SB folds, BB folds, UTG+1 calls $130.95 (All-In), MP1 folds, Hero calls $12.50 (All-In).

    Turn: ($148.45) 3 (2 players, 2 all-in)

    River: ($148.45) 7 (2 players, 2 all-in)

    Final Pot: $148.45

    Thanks. Most of the hands I posted today were from the upswing before things took a turn for the worst. He turned over K9s and I brought in more $$$ with J8o than I have at any other point in my game so far.

    $50 upswing, followed by $250 downswing. Not so nice. I'm pouring over the hands to see where I screwed up. Haven't even gotten to the money hands (where I sucked it up) yet.

    Exception: the AKs hand I posted yesterday was part of the downswing.

    calling an all-in with TP-bad kicker on a 6 player flop looks like suicide to me...but great read, seeing through him on your very first hand :P
