Beginner Limit Hold'em Poker Forums

I feel like with that read he is going to have you beat sort of often here, but at the same time he could try bluffing on the paint \"scare card\". It\'s a pretty close one for me here. If the pot were a little bigger I\'d say easy call, so I guess I\'ll say close crying call but its soo close. Sorry this isn\'t that helpful.

The stare is why I called. From my live experience at the tables I play, the \"soul stare\" usually means \"Please fold\". But, DD is probably right.

Agree with this. Strong means weak, weak means strong - this is the basic premise for all tells. Staring conveys obvious strength, therefore it is weakness. I have never beat anyone at showdown who bet and then casually turned and started watching the tv.

Live 6/12

Table has been pretty TP for the last few orbits, which is weird \'cause usually its 19 to every flop.

When I 1st sat down about 3 hrs. ago, BB seemed pretty tighgt straight forward, I remember thinking I would \"respect\" his raises. But, the last hour I\'ve noticed he is pretty bad and loose/donkish, I no longer repect his play.

Folds to me on the HJ I open with A5s. Only BB calls.

FLOP:237 w two clubs
Check, bet, call.

TURN:5 of no club
check, bet, call

RIVER:Q no club
BB now insta donks and stares into my soul.
I call.

or :sick: ???
