    Love it when players just give me all their money

    One of the big tells in the 1/2NL game is that a big preflop raise ($15+) from certain players is always pocket QQ, KK or AA.

    I have pocket 33 with 500 behind and call 20 raise from BB on button

    There is 45 in pot and flop comes T23 and guy leads out for 75 and has 230 left.

    I just decide to go all in. Never played with the guy before and usually when a player makes a big bet like this they don't fold. Guy insta calls and has pocket KK.

    He shakes his head and asks me what I was thinking calling such a big preflop raise with such a shitty hand.

    LOL how hard of a hand to play that way do you think it is
    First calling the 20 with 33 is no big deal you can call that with 56 if the right number get in.
    Second when you know the big pair is in no matter how you play the hand your getting all the
    money....the only difference is if it was me the big pr would 4 flush me here lol

    When your that deep you should never lose you whole stack (when deeper than 150 BB's) with one pair and no redraws. But it happens all the time at this level.
