In the DADI last night, I got mixed up in a hand with Fuel55, who I don't remember playing with previously.
Here's his version of the hand:
A8s in position - A34 rainbow flop, on_thg puts in a continuation bet and I put him all in. vs on_thg calls with A9. Horrible call and he knows it, but enough to win the hand.
Here's the actual hand history -- I'm deliberately forgoing using a hand converter:

Now answer me this: Who's the bigger donkey?
Edit 5/31/06:
By the way, that's a rhetorical question. Here's a revised description of the action from Fuel55 (hope it's okay that I post this):
A8s in position - A34 rainbow flop, on_thg puts in a continuation bet (or least that is what I believe given that he bets most flops from what I have observed) and I put him all in given that he could have any pair from KK down to 55 or a whack of other hands that my A8 is ahead of. on_thg calls with A9. Over the long term this is a -EV call. I called it a horrible call at the time (but, as CJ has pointed out, the correct call this time) and he has enough to win the hand.
Poker. What a game.

Definately Fuel55, who I have to wonder if he actually wins at poker. One interesting thing I find about him is that he does post hands he plays horribly on his blog and then proclaims how brilliant he is. That is worth something I suppose.
Don't worry Mike, you'll always be my donkey.
I love Wes. He has outed me as the losing ABC poker player that I am. No tertiary thinking from me - that's for sure.
Where's StB with the donkey song?
All the credit for building relationships and setting the world on a straighter course goes to CJ. Without him all of this would never have happened.
(Aside: I still don't forgive him have AA in the BB in the big FT tourney 8 months ago when I came a stealin' from the SB ...)
