New Challenge: Movin' On Up

[trystero 0]

in normal nitring I just nit up shop and fold, yeah, but this was an ante game, and the players are too tight pf imo for that environment.

[QED 4]

I can't give some rando credit for the Tom Dwan bluffI fold

I fold I still want to snap it off and be a super hero though.

[KingJames 11]

Preflop: Hero is UTG with 10 , J :club:Hero calls $0.25, 5 folds, SB bets $1.50, 1 fold, Hero calls $1.25

wait a minute, you open-limp/called preflop... wtf?

w/his flop call multiway and turn check, I figured he had some small pocket pair that couldn't call a river betTurn: ($7.25) 10 (2 players)Hero checks, CO checksRiver: ($7.25) 10 (2 players)Hero checks, CO bets $5.50, Hero calls $5.50

i think this river is interesting tbh. When villain checks back the turn we can easily assume he rarely has KX. He probably has 9's and 8's 7's, and i guess a very small amount of the time j's. so i doubt on this board on the river he is going to go for super thin value with them, they most of the time are just checking behind. And i think the turn is very indicative of his strength, my checking the turn there i think more often enough it is an indication of showdown value. So because of that i would just be betting this river a ton. granted this is all in a vacuum villain easily could be the type to attack what he sees as weakness with hands, then i would prefer your line ( or even be check raising for value otr)

I like deep stack poker. even tho I didn't hit, I feel I can make calls like this that I'd ordinarily have to spite fold.Full Tilt No-Limit Hold'em, $0.25 BB (8 handed) - Full Tilt Converter Tool from FlopTurnRiver.comUTG+1 ($28.39)MP1 ($11.98)MP2 ($50.95)CO ($67.38)Button ($61.98)SB ($50)BB ($56.32)Hero (UTG) ($52.60)Preflop: Hero is UTG with K , Q Hero bets $0.75, 1 fold, MP1 calls $0.75, 3 folds, SB calls $0.65, BB calls $0.50Flop: ($3) J , 7 , 10 (4 players)SB checks, BB checks, Hero bets $1.75, MP1 raises to $8.25, 1 fold, BB calls $8.25, Hero calls $6.50

personally i dont see much a point of leading here tbh. middling cards in call happy multiway pots its just too likely one or more people peel us here.

going all in is just silly here, unless you know he has exactly 10x and will fold to a shove. i don't like betting the river what are you trying to accomplish by betting? get value from what? ace high? because jacks and queens are more than likely 3betting pre. Checking is perfect because it gives villain the chance to bet counterfeited two pair, qj, j9, or other random shit. edit: that is also some really thin value if he's betting with 9s, 8s, or 7s

personally i dont see much a point of leading here tbh. middling cards in call happy multiway pots its just too likely one or more people peel us here.

c/cing is wayyyyyyyyyyyyyyy worse than cbetting here. having someone peel us is fine, conceding the hand to a villain is not fine.

[XXEddie 0]

Today is starting to annoy me. Every bluff I try seems to get picked off by the weirdest hand that villain shouldn't ever have. Like people floating with air on the flop, calling a turn c/r with a gutter, then stacking off on the river when the hit 3rd pair.

March was pretty good. Played the majority at 50NL and 25NL 6max, but I also played some 50NL hu and got crushed, and sat down at a 100NL and a 200NL table when I was running hot, and had decent results.Goal is to keep studying HU play and try my luck on the weekends. Also, gonna work on my MTT game a little more and really focus on doing better in the mid to end game. I played a light schedule, about 19 total, and cashed in 4, but they were all min cashes. I needz more final tables!! I'm fairly rolled for 50NL now, but I'm planning on playing at least one more month splitting my time between that and 25NL.ResultsCash $606.46MTT -$63.25Bonus $125.00Total $668.21

don't think you realize that those hands you listed were counterfeited

[trystero 0]

wait a minute, you open-limp/called preflop... wtf?

yea I know. I should've folded but the hand looked too pretty so I did the donk move and called. once he raises though the call is automatic. I'm excited to play a pot HU against the deep stack in position.

c/cing is wayyyyyyyyyyyyyyy worse than cbetting here. having someone peel us is fine, conceding the hand to a villain is not fine.

yeah exactly. if the flop bet takes it down then all the better, but getting called isn't terrible; in fact I kind of want to get called by the deeper stacks I'm in position against. if someone has like AJ here I stand to win a good-sized pot. also, good nlhe graphs guys
