mtdesmoines 3 Posted February 25, 2008 Share Posted February 25, 2008 Like the title says. Hero: a billion (around $2,500)Villain1: $75Villain2: $650 Villain1 is ready to go home. Villain2 is a grumpy loose cannon. He doesn't have a style or strategy, he just tries to do something and see if he looks smart.ACTIONHero catches Ac As UTG. Opens for $12Villain1: callsVillain2: callsCouple other random calls along the way.Flop (about $50 in the pot)Qc Jh ThHero bets $70Villain1 shovesVillain2 calls.Turn ($275 or so in pot): JdHero bets $150 into side pot. Villain2 callsRiver: QhHero? The KK in the other post, BTW, is the only KK I got dealt in 24 hours. Link to post Share on other sites
nomad_monad 0 Posted February 25, 2008 Share Posted February 25, 2008 i'm trying to think of something villain called you down here with that you beat by the river. Kx is all I see.i'm trying to think of a hand villain has that's ahead of you that would fold to a bet. given villain's description, i don't think he even folds AK. Link to post Share on other sites
NoBBiR 0 Posted February 25, 2008 Share Posted February 25, 2008 I think I'd just check/fold'er. If he has just a king, I can't see him taking a big stab at it so you're likely to get it checked down anyway. I can't really imagine much that you're ever going to be ahead of but a busto'd draw. Just check and pray he had K10 or something. Link to post Share on other sites

Kx is all I see.i'm trying to think of a hand villain has that's ahead of you that would fold to a bet. given villain's description, i don't think he even folds AK.OK. So here's what I did. I thought MAYBE he flopped AQ. He got a goofy look on his face when the board paired on the turn and I bet. So I bet the river: $200. He thinks for 2 minutes and mucks. Other villain has 99. I scoop main and side. Villain claims to have thrown away AK. I dunno. You would think he'd pressure that flop and definitely the turn, but he passive-tarded his way into the muck with the best hand.

mtdesmoines 3 Posted February 25, 2008 Author Share Posted February 25, 2008 Is the dude on crack? He like passivetarded himself to death if he really had AK.Quite possible. Seriously. Anyway. I don't think he had AK. I really don't. Link to post Share on other sites
Sheiky 0 Posted February 25, 2008 Share Posted February 25, 2008 Disgusting, eugh, check fold? I can't see anything else to do even though it sucks bad. Link to post Share on other sites
BuffDan 0 Posted February 26, 2008 Share Posted February 26, 2008 The thing is, all we did was get him to fold when we had the best hand (probably, I mean he could have had AK) , so I don't know what we gained by betting here, unless it was a blocker. Link to post Share on other sites
Royal_Tour 0 Posted February 26, 2008 Share Posted February 26, 2008 you are way to LAGTARD IMO.not just from this hand, but if you have 2500 @ 1,2 NL.. unless its a bigger buy in. You either had to have a siiick disgusting run of cards, or you're just c/raising all in with flush draws and mediocre hands and getting thereI have only seen like 3 people, in all of my playing in canada, vegas, and australia who have been sitting at a 1/2 table with close to 2500.2 were insane luckboxes. (1 the table told me, the other the player himself told me he flopped the nuts like 8 times) and other i dont know, I wasnt at his table Link to post Share on other sites
NoBBiR 0 Posted February 26, 2008 Share Posted February 26, 2008 I've seen people go on heaters and have like 1-1.1k on a 1/2 nl table before, plus he said this was a 24 hour session, so I'm assuming if you just run really good with the combination of being a maniac lag, you can win a lot of money. lol.

Its very rare to run up anything over 6 buyins at fullring. let alone 14.although, a trend i noticed. In australia, they're were a lot of die hard degens and the games were short buy ins. (2-3NL with max 200)it was just super super fishy and overly aggro. Link to post Share on other sites
mtdesmoines 3 Posted February 26, 2008 Author Share Posted February 26, 2008 OK, stop running me down, I'm really proud of this game. I ran this up to almost $4K and cashed out $3500 when I got hit for $400 on a gutterball river that hit the sucker straight over my set of twos, and then watched four to a flush hit on my flopped straight for what I was planning to be the last couple hands of a 24 hour session.During the entire 24 hour session, I don't recall ever having all of my chips in, and I never doubled up through anyone. I rarely hit better than two pair -- a couple straights and a couple flushes. This stack was was grinding hard and fast. I don't recall ever really gambling on much, just knowing where I was and acting accordingly. I didn't hit big hands. I had AA this one time. I had KK one time and had to fold them. (And I was right -- see other post). I hit two sets during the entire session -- neither of them were good. The twos mentioned above, and I flopped 555QQ and got a call from QQQA5 and watched him river an ace to overboat my fives full for a $450 pot. Yeah, there was crazy action, but I managed this table like a champion -- as well as any table or any player I'd ever seen. Again. Proud of this game.Yes, I play very fast and loose and since this is a small town (relatively speaking), I have a target on my back 10 feet wide. When I sit, I know about 8 of the ten players, and they all know me. I am LAG. Ultra-LAG. No doubt. That's what makes me laugh when people in this forum call me a nit. My last seven cashes in this $1/$2 game are:- 500 4 hours+1500 6 hours+1500 12 hours- 1000 4 hours+3500 24 hours- 500 9 hours (tonight -- a very ugly night) Maybe it's a little swingy for some of you, but it suits me.

Acid_Knight 2 Posted February 26, 2008 Share Posted February 26, 2008 I had $2900 in a 1/2 game at turning stone before. Of course, I am a lagtard. I think most of it worked up when I won a $2500ish pot against a kid where he had QQ and I had 77 on the 97662 board. I don't have any clue how he gave me all of his money, but yeah, it's possible.I also hate your flop and turn and river bets. :)Nice hand. Link to post Share on other sites

It's always vise versa."Oh, you have top set? Well son, I have a straight.""Haha, flopped the Jack high flush? I flopped the nut flush.""I see that top two, but my bottom set is just dying for you to brick.""Pocket Aces? Hahaha, I knew I'd out flop ya with 69o.
