I'll go with T since it completes the worst hand at the moment.

The one with the worst amount of outs won... so pokerplayernumber1 was right, it was a 5.
At least if I am not mistaken, this was a test video I made with OBS, I finished in the money.

This hand just happen. I've been trying to stack this dude forever, Villain has 67 bux in his stack, that + 17 is mine and I am finally getting it all back + interest :profit:

NL50 - 5 Handed

Hero BB $50.92
Villain UTG $67.10
MP $67.30
BTN $48.39
SB $48.92

Hero 9♠: 9♥:

UTG raises to $3, MP calls $3, fold, fold, Hero calls $2.50

Flop (Main Pot $9.25)4♥: 9♦: 4♣:

Hero checks, Villain bets $9.25, fold, Hero fist pumps and is ALL IN, Villain calls

Turn (Main Pot $106.09)Q♦:

River (Main Pot $106.09)Q♠:

Spoiler

Villain shows Q♣: Q♥: and wins more of my money + interest

Spoiler

Hero :pcuser:

Doesn't matter how many times this has happened before, it still hurts, especially when taking another shot at NL50 (and not being rolled for NL50):facepalm:

Is it usual for players at this level to open 6BB?
Even from UTG?

Spoiler

Believe me, it was even painful just reading it.
kinda like when you're playing football and one guy takes it in the groin and 22 players on both teams double up and groan

No, he is a fish. My note says he raises x6 with AA or KK. I remember thinking please have Queens or better before i shoved, as I've seen him fold and show JJ :mdr:

I love watching those replays and the delayed reaction on the players face after taking the boot. :coolface:

My reaction:
I insta sat out, and grumbled for like 5 secs and then said to myself "Idiot, you should have called and folded the turn" :why:

What? Not 5♥:7♥: ?

Question: How does a fish get a 50BB stack?

Spoiler

By starting with a 100BB stack and playing normally.

Okay, so this villain used all his time bank to call, which means that he convinced himself that the player on the BTN is capable of TBAI with bluff given check/check action on flop because his hand beats nothing but the bluff imo. Also, every straight draw and flush draw missing by river is another clue, and my over bet on turn could be interpreted as draw heavy thus semi bluff. It's actually pretty deep now that I think about it.
