Thanks all.

Is she poker-friendly?

We met playing poker. Not only is she friendly to it she's becoming a major threat on the table and after a lot of work I've gotten her to establish a winning poker career.

limited chance of forgetting

This was one of the major reasons I chose today LOL

Whats this, a thread on fcp where people actually post about poker? Seeing as how I started playing again I might come back here....Hand for fun. Villan was pretty out of line with his 3-betting, and I was pretty out of line with my stealing. What do we think he has?Converted by a herd of feral cowsHEM/Full Tilt NL Hold'em $0.10/$0.25 - 6 playersUTG+1: $21.50 CO: $58.89 (Hero)Button: $28.95 SB: $25.00 BB: $34.02 UTG: $25.35 Preflop: ($0.35) Hero is CO with X X (6 players)2 folds, Hero raises to $0.75, Button folds, SB raises to $2.25, BB folds, Hero calls $1.50Flop: ($4.75) (2 players)SB bets $3.25, Hero calls $3.25Turn: ($11.25) (2 players)SB bets $5.25...

thanks for recording / commenting James. nice to see you had the nut flush when I had bet into you :PSolar, his range is pretty wide if he's 3-betting liberally and ignorant of position, Ax two pairs OESD hearts 77 w/e

[KingJames 11]

Yeah, that board is crushing both of your ranges tbh. I mean he should have some Ax hands, flush draws, pair + straight draws and you can have some similar.I suspect you have to reallllly widen your value 4b range, so like at least 99+ and AJs+ but you can have some of the suited connectors and Ax hands as well, some sets, and draws etc etcAssuming you think he is wide and aggro, I'd call with my entire range that I am continuing with... flush draws, Ax, sets, 2p, straight, whatev

[KingJames 11]

guess it could be a really sexy spot to semi bluff jam turn with like a flush draw or something (bc his range is super wide and we only have XXhigh if we're naked flush draw)I'm getting ready to roll out (bronco game today with friends), so I haven't really thought enough...

I had QT the KK hand. I had K9 when you 4bet 88I don't like your 5 bet with 44 early on vs me. If you are trying to induce there are very few hands that are not a coin flip with 44 so you are helping me play better vs your hand compared with just shoving.You played well for the most part. can't wait to win my money back in the rematch though

[KingJames 11]

Was QT two pair? AQTdd board or AQJ??Also, would you mind elaborating more on your play with JJ? I've been thinking more about whether I call with 8x. Re: 44... Results, brah. I induced, you spazzzz, I held, pokerz is easy.

paging cobalt to this thread.

I like a 3bet jam on that flop if we root beer and villain is even mildly aggressive. So many players are just going to see our cbet as weak and raise with ATC there. Now if we're deeper, I do like go with a less-than-jam 3bet. Also, I do think if we're taking this line with AK, we should at least take it some of the time with strong hands.
