Firstley, he didn't raise PF, which excluded the ace a bit more, he bet under the pot on the flop. i still thought my hand was the best, turn he bet under the pot , he is either trapping me or has got nothing. i was about %70 sure he had nothing, and then the 9 on the river. he took very long then decided to go all-in, to me and all-in looks weak, i decided to gamble and was correct. after that call i felt like a pro cause i dont know many people that would call with bottom pair. comments are welcome =D

Unless villain was absolutely insane, every street except maybe the river seems terrible.

horrible IMO...
im thinking a WIDE variety of hands beat you here or split

any 9 kills you
any overpair
any ace
straight
and any 5 splits with you...


i just dont see going all in here a good move

Well, I guess being bad at poker is pretty likely to be at least partially an effect of being British. (Seriously though, if you post hands where you play bad and ask for feedback, you'll probably be told that you played them poorly.)

You can be bad at poker and still win money as long as the people you play against are worse.

Let me know when you do, so I can sit at the same table.

Seriously, though, if you're gonna ask "was this a good call" and then not listen to everyone tell you that it was, in fact, a clearly awful call, why bother posting?
