Gargoyle97 0 Posted August 19, 2008 Share Posted August 19, 2008 I'm not a short handed player.Your attempt to isolate failed. I think you should give up on the C-bet when everyone comes along. Link to post Share on other sites
rvrchsrhtr 0 Posted August 19, 2008 Author Share Posted August 19, 2008 I would think shorthanded the chances of someone having an ace would be less so I should c-bet being I raised pre. I'm not even close to what I would call being "good" at LH though so maybe I'm off? Link to post Share on other sites
Gargoyle97 0 Posted August 19, 2008 Share Posted August 19, 2008 Remember to evaluate the information you get through your action. You raised p/f, everyone called. The likelihood that there is an A out is higher now, based on their calls, than when you started the hand. Also, shorthanded big card hands are better starting hands than suited connectors. You will often times have poor odds for your draws based on fewer players at the table. Link to post Share on other sites
Zach6668 513 Posted August 21, 2008 Share Posted August 21, 2008 I wouldn't c-bet into 3 others here. 2, I would.Fwiw, SH hands go in the SH forum. I didn't notice if the rest were 6-handed or less, but I'll move this one, and others which fall into the SH category. Link to post Share on other sites
rvrchsrhtr 0 Posted August 22, 2008 Author Share Posted August 22, 2008 yeah sorry Zach it was same full ring tables just became shorthanded. Thanks for the insight on the C-bet Link to post Share on other sites
Zach6668 513 Posted August 22, 2008 Share Posted August 22, 2008 Fwiw, I'd like the c-bet a bit more if we at least had a backdoor flush draw or something, but we've got nothing here, lol. Link to post Share on other sites

CoranMoran 0 Posted August 29, 2008 Share Posted August 29, 2008 Raising with Ten-High in a loose limit game in which we can almost always expect someone to see showdown with us just doesn't make much sense to me.I don't think you should make a habit of this.I would do it in a No-Limit game though.--CM Link to post Share on other sites

Furthermore, we're in a 4 handed situation here, and I think it's perfectly reasonable to be opening a hand like T8s from the button. Link to post Share on other sites
RabidTortuga 0 Posted September 26, 2008 Share Posted September 26, 2008 I'm playing this for value once we get 4-way family to the flop, and we have none on the flop.FWiW, I bet like a monkey here way too often as well. Less tables for me, please. Link to post Share on other sites
