Exactly. On a full table, you can lay odds that somebody has the nuts or at least the second nuts. Yet, there are people calling with two pair and even one high pair against a board that has a four straight or a four flush showing. Of course, everything depends on how the hand has developed. If you get a 9 high flush, but it came runner runner on the last two cards, and you are down to two players, you might call. But even then I'd be making a crying call. I've never figured out why NH is a compliment. I didn't do anything to deserve it. My favorite though is the guy who is losing who tells you everything you did wrong on the last hand. I always figure it is the real pros who are playing low dollar games and losing consistently who know the most about the game. <VBG> It reminds me of people who want to borrow money from you at the race track to make one more bet that's a sure thing. Hell, if you knew anything about betting, how come you're out of money?
