    Hi... Was just watching Poker on TV. Scratching my head on this one ...help! Just cant imagine folding this.

    Final Table at Bellagio -Heads up poker 300/150. Bill is big blind.

    Bill has Q hearts, 7 spade.
    Opponent had 7 hearts, 5 diamond.
    (Pre-flop, no raise and just call)
    Flop: 6,5 spades, and J diamonds
    (Opponent makes pair 5s)
    (pre-turn Check, check)
    Turn: 4 spades
    (Bill bets $300k with possible open-ended straight, possible flush, and is called)
    River: 9 spades (Bill makes his flush, opponent still has 5 pair.)
    Final bet: Bill bets 400k and opponent bets 1.2M. (Bill folds flush)

    Why did Bill fold with a flush?
    Bill would maybe fold if he thought opponent had 2,3 spades to make straight-flush. Is this the only thing that could beat him?

    Was it possible for opponent to beat Bill with a higher spade than Bill's 7 spade?
    Would either of their kickers come into play if both players had a spade?

    Get in line, sillbeer. which end of the line you end up in may come as a surprise. some excellent players already geared up to take your beer money.
    which one takes it all home seems to vary week by week, watch out for each and every one of us. And welcome, we do have unfilled chairs some nights. and at least once we've needed 2 tables. so the more the merrier. Its all for fun and repartee, no real money changing hands.

    It depends on a few things like stack size, but the 8, 10, J, Q, K, or A of spades beats Bill, (as well as 2,3s). That's a lot of heat when his opponent could have any one of those to take it. And if that would have put Bill all-in you just don't take that kind of chance when your tournament like is on the line - unless the other guy is an open book (easy to read).

    Okay. So a higher flush does matter. I was thinking they would split pot. It was for about 1/3 of his stack. Sizeable! Thanks for explanation. I need to read a rules book.

    So based on these two things, it doesn't make sense lol
    Attitude had 3 KOs, including him self, and two others. 1 was obviously Berry. The last one was either Gata or Stu, can't be both.

    So if Tom KOed Stu, than Gata had to be KOed by Berry, and her 2nd KO must have been Winter.
    If Tom KOed Gata, than Its a toss up between Berry and Gata KOing Winter and Stu.

    I went all in on Attitude and I lost it all except my knickers - don't look stu!
    EDIT: I thought I only had one KO and that was Gator. sorry, I forgot to log in last night and check how many KO's each person had. Maybe someone not working can log in?

    Then I guess Attitude didn't take all my chips like I thought...I have a hard time moving that ALL-IN button across the screen...I usually leave a few chips behind.
