I tried to make the flop 3-bet kinda sketchy to maximize fold equity versus overpairs. Guess I was a little off there….
Not only is this an awful board to expect me to show up with air, but when he 7-bet bluffs (wow, what an awesome thing to be able to say), I have to call $45 into a $3600 pot. The best part is that I thought my 6-bet was all in. I just hit the raise button, but apparently that left me with just enough room to give him the illusion of fold equity.
You don’t know you how nervous I was when that deuce rolled off on the turn.
