One thing that I will never understand about internet poker, especially the microlimits that I like to dabble in, is how a "normal" hand can all of a sudden get out of control with crazy and irrational raises and reraises. Well, actually, "understand" is probably not the right word, I understand it in the sense that we are only playing for pennies and not all of the players are necessarily taking it seriously, so I guess what I am trying to say is that I don't necessarily see what caused the hand below to get so out of hand on the flop relative to other hands. The winning low hand was raising with his A2crapcrap hand (which is pretty common, I shouldn't be surprised) but all the winning high hand had was a set of kings, three suited cards in the hole, and a whole lot of outs to being a loser. As usual, I called the extra penny from my small blind and was going to fold anyway when I didn't flop quads and that's what I did.
