Over the years I have been known for, lets say playing "questionable cards". But let the truth be known that 99% of the time, the players at my table give me the right odds to make my "questionable plays". Last week was a great example. I was playing in a $20.00 rebuy satellite to get into the $500.00 Ultimate Players Choice. (UB runs these a couple times a day and are a great way to satellite into the $500.00 buyin). It was the start of the second hour and I had about 9000 in chips, in the BB w/ 4-7 off. 1st position makes it 300w/A-Q, 4th position smooth calls with Q-Q, button calls with 5-5, SB calls and it cost me 200 in the BB so I call...flop comes Q-5-6 rainbow...dream flop for all:)
Now with 1200 in the pot A-Q ONLY BETS 375 and the set of queens smooth calls as does the set of 5's. I call right away and the turn is a 9. A-Q now makes it a whopping 775 and it gets smooth called by the sets yet again. They are begging for me to win this hand. It is impossible with the odds that im getting to fold my 8 outter here. The river comes BINGO the nut 3. Within seconds everyone gets all there chips in the middle, and I end up with 34000 chips and won my seat into the 500.00 that I happend to win the next night. Weeeee! $11k all because the donks gave me the pot odds to call
