This was an interesting hand i noticed while playing a 2/4 dollar NLH live cash game on christmas eve. The two players that encountered each other had similar stack sizes of about $500 each, give and take several dollars. The table was moderately loose with some solid players. It was folded to the guy in mid position who raised it to $15. It was then folded around to me on the small blind which I also folded. The only remaining guy was the big blind who min raised it to $30. This guy had shown so loose holdings previously. The guy back in mid position called the extra $15. The flop came A 5 3 rainbow. The big blind guy half bet the pot and the mid position guy called. The turn was a 4 and the big blind guy barreled again for half the pot and the mid position guy again called. The river came a 7 and there was no possible flushes. The final board read A 5 3 4 7. There was approximately $250 in the pot now. Both players still had stacks in the range of $350-$400 left. The guy in the big blind took about 20 seconds then pushed allin, basically a massive over bet. The guy in mid position also took his time and spent well over a minute. Then finally called. The who pushed allin in the big blind revealed pocket 22s for a A-5 straight. The mid position guy looked puzzled then left the table after he got stacked. The big blind guy cheekily said merry christmas just to shed the extra pain. However, the question is what hand did the other guy have when he made the massive call because he mucked his hand and didn't show it. What do you guys think??
