Default So I just played 1 of the craziest pots I've ever seen

It's a home game. No Limit Hold'Em $.50/$1 blinds $40 buyin.
I'm just messing around, and am currently stuck for $200. lol.

10 players 7 of them are quite bad.

I have about $80 in front of me.

UTG limps, UTG+1 limps, MP1 limps, I limp in MP2 wiht 35o.

This is where it gets a bit crazy.
MP3 limps, HJ limps,
CO raises to $4 LOL. BTN cold calls with a huge stack like $200. SB calls, BB calls, UTG folds, UTG+1 calls, MP1 calls, I call,
MP3 SHOVES for $18 and reopens action. HJ shoves over for $19.5, CO FOLDS HAHAHAHHAHA, BTN calls, SB PUSHES FOR $24. BB calls with, all fold to me, where i'm looking at calling $20 into like a $150 pot.

I call. BTN calls and closes action.

Flop is Th 3h Tc.

BB pushes for $10, I have $50 behind with BTN behind and he's itching to put his chips in.

I fold. This is debatable. However I felt there was no way I win this pot without catching a 3. I have two outs vs 66 and up, 0 outs vs any Ten and everyone had over cards and someone has a flush draw. So I fold.

BTN calls, hands are flipped over.

SB - Jd 7d
BB - 2c 3c
MP3 - AdQs
HJ - As 6s
BTN - Ah 6h


WTF I have the best hand.

Turn 4c, river 5h.

23 scoops a $200 pot. With a pair of threes.

That I had outkicked, and caught a better pair on the river.

I've played a lot of poker, and I've never seen that.

Afterwards, the CO is complaining he folded T7. LOL

Just WOW

That's brutal. I had a similar experience a long time ago but was on the winning end. Its one of the few haands I'll never forget and up until a few years ago I had the hand history and screen shot saved still because it was nuts.

This was 2001 or 2002 - $30/$60 @ PartyPoker. At the time this was the biggest game that was open online, PokerStars had a $50/$100, but it was a restricted table you needed permission to play on.

This have changed a lot the wait list for $30/$60 online used to be hours long because there was only 2 tables and Party said the reason they did not add more is because they didn't have the staff to monitor for collussion properly? LOL yup, things have for sure changed.

Anyways I have 7d 3d the flop comes 2 4 6 with two diamonds. It gets four way capped on the flop. The turn a non diamond 4 its capped again. The river not a diamond 6 the guy who just capped checks, I bet, button raises, player folds and I've oviously missed big time her and have just a 7 kicker with the board paired 4's and 6's. I can't beat much but i think for a while and figure I can beat pocket 3's and I can beat 25 lol I know I'm loosing here but this pot is huge. I call the pot ships to me: "xxxx wins $1512 with seven kicker" Thats how Party displayed it back then just the card that played. Also there was no way to look and see what he had because hand histories did not show back then and and cards were always turned up incorrect, just started with SB and went around table so even though I called his bet he was able to muck. All he could of had was pocket 33, 23, 25 he obviously had one of them. the entire table was like omg wtf just happened.. Everyyone kept copy and pasting "xxxx wins $1512 with seven kicker".. not to mention this game had like a 5 hour waiting list and a massive rail. the guy who folded said the pot was half his so he mst of had 57. talk about a huge pot with 3 players all playing garbage

I saw at the table for a similiar hand at Foxwoods years ago. I don't know if you remember Mike Salem (tall guy probably the best player there). I can't remember the stakes probably 10/20 or 20/40. He had 32 suited and flopped a four flush Q55 he bet other guy called turn Q bet guy called river 2 he misses bets and the guy called him with 33 for a split. I still don't think the other guy saw 2 pair on the board.
