Wow, I can not believe this one. I am in a tournament and I have played TWO hands in two levels. Neither went to showdown and I won them by betting out. Then I get a short stack all in when I have 77 and he had T7o. This is POST flop. He hits a Ten on the river. So, I have to get something going. I have 54o in the BB and get to see a free flop.

columbo checks <== he gives me a FREE flop??? great!
>>>DEALING FLOP<<< [ 8c 4d 6c ]
columbo bets 1,450 <== This is an easy bet here, since he can not call it. There is little chance he is ahead here and I am first to the pot.
Big Bo raises 125 to 1,575 and is all-in <<= in effect he calls.
columbo calls 125
Big Bo cards were Kh Qc <= HE CALLS ME WITH OVERS?!?!?!? for ALL his chips?!!?!?
columbo cards were 4s 5d
>>>DEALING TURN<<< [ 8d ]
>>>DEALING RIVER<<< [ Kc ]
Big Bo wins 4,600 with two pair, kings and eights
columbo: OMG
ok, bad beat. Big deal right. So now pokerchick46 actaully says, "what were you doing calling a raise with a pair of fours and a 5 kicker?"
WTF? The raise I called was 125 chips?! So when I mentioned that I knew he missed the board...
"you can know that".
Yes, actually after watching him play for an hour, I can...
and I LOVE this line
"I am not going to argue with you. I am only trying to help"
Argue with me? YOU brought it up... AND you have the facts wrong.
"aks anyone at the table if you should call a raise there"
WTF? again, I am flabergasted. The table breaks and that is that.
I played the hand perfectly, got a bad beat, and got LECTURED for calling my last 125 chips into a pot of 4500.
Want to hear my advice? Keep it to yourself.

Big Bo = Fish
Noted!
Great blog. Basic gap theory, Big Bo never should have called with overs.
