Bottom pair, apparently he thought Manny would not call $2 raise into $154 pot after initial $60 bet. Fold equity means fold dial illuminates to some or because he "raised $135"

MANNY24FAN: nice straight
bayne_s shows [Jc Kh Ts 3c]
MANNY24FAN shows [Qs Ac Ks Qc] expected holding
Uncalled bet of $133 returned to all-in nice
*** TURN *** [9c 4h Qd] [Td] w00t
*** RIVER *** [9c 4h Qd Td] [3d] wtf
all-in nice shows a flush, Queen high
MANNY24FAN shows three of a kind, Queens
all-in nice wins the side pot ($59) with a flush, Queen high
bayne_s shows a straight, King high
all-in nice wins the main pot ($154.50) with a flush, Queen high

At least I had this to fall back on

*** TURN *** [2d Td 6c] [Js]
*** RIVER *** [2d Td 6c Js] [3c]
bayne_s shows a pair of Aces
cardfather shows a pair of Jacks
bayne_s wins the pot ($705.60) with a pair of Aces

The "hand specialist" let me know that surgery would not be required for my pinky w00t, but I would have it in a splint for 6 weeks and if fingertip bent the 6 weeks restarted.

I also caved and ordered daughter an ipod, her reaction when I forwarded her that it had shipped: "It's a little late"

Congrats to LJ on Riverchasers victory. I got some chips early but then took on a coin flip with boofdiggity and lost 34th consec all in flip
