New Challenge: Movin' On Up


Recommended Posts

LOOOOOLI was on 3Also, why do you think I precluded that with "oddly enough" and called it a "spew session"Don't be so angry bro ;)Just sayin, you missed value from this retard
The AA hand, yes i missed value but there was a valid reason for me not betting, namely I wasnt at the computer...The QQ hand, I am not completely convinced I played that completely wrong. It was a mono-tone board, I bet flop. You called, original raiser folded. I checked blank turn. Bet 1/2 on river expecting to call a normal raise. If I bet more and you jam, is that a snap call? I am not convinced it is. Because you were playing so loose, suited cards smack your range. Or are you saying because of how loose you were I should have been happy to get it in? If I bomb the turn, you arent calling unless you have the flush or some TP, and then if you bomb the river or shove, is that still a call?

This deserves to get seen by a few more people. From our resident Stupidhead...v1.27Feral Cow Poker Hand ConverterHEM/Poker Stars NL Hold'em $1.00/$2.00 - 6 playersButton: $237.98SB: $200.00BB: $60.00

I remember when this thread was all about how bad KJ was at 3betting

He's probably not flatting KJ's raise otf if he had a2. Besides, A2 is such a small portion of his range here, we are never ever ever ever ever ever ever folding the turn. People are stupid, they do

The AA hand I was figuring you were trying to get me to bet, since i was betting like everything... when you 3balled and checked KQx i was like... oh... no way I'm taking this down... go running 4's?The QQ hand I don't mind the turn check if you were planning to CRAI... it's actually probably the best play there, but I'm pretty sure you also checked to me on the river, because I remember mashing the pot button since I had made kings up... I was shocked I lost the hand when I was just flatted.I'm actually not running a tracker atm... pokerz is not so serious for me anymore... so i'm curious... was my VPIP like 60% or something stupid? (it was higher on the other tables LULZ)

Just checked the HH and yes you are correct, I didnt river was thinking another hand. That hand I am a bit lost on why I didnt bet or raise the river. Can only assume that I was intending to c/r turn. The river the most likely thought was that if I do bet and you jam the river is it still a call? And because I didnt bet and you potted, I would pretty much have to jam and if I jam the only thing that will call is better thus being the flush. But to be honest, that would be my best guess, in reality it could simple be I missed value.Your stats were 60/52 with 3bet of 37%

Yeah on the river there, against a redfish (somebody being a betmonkey like me), I'd probably suggest less than a half pot bet... an "inducer bet." Sure, sometimes he will actually have the flush when he jams, but it will often get him to raise you (like I did in the KQ hand you were thinking of) with his whiffed draw... or in that weird case I would have definitely jammed 2 pair

ROFFFLLLLThe reason I ended up on the session was mostly that I found the other redfish, and the tables saw some "donk on donk violence." Basically, you want to bet to make the pots large, but when you have a hand, give them room to make the final jam (unless they're committed) or that fancy play they're setting up for. Sometimes they show up with a hand... but most with an "aggro game" tend to "forget" to do it with their value hands as well.So basically, let them float, don't check to them... check-raise turns for thin value, and don't be afraid to get it in.That German guy who won the KQ vs TT flip is a redfish too btw. TT is near the top of his range.

http://thegoldengatescasino.com/poker/colo...onship-scheduleReally want to try to play in a couple of these and test the waters with some satties to the ME.
Looks like I'm gonna play the 12pm events on Tuesday and Friday. If I bust out of both early enough I'll try the qualifiers at 3pm. If I qualify/do well in an event I will play the $1,100 ME. However, I will have to attempt to get work covered.

Played live 200nl yesterday for about 12 hours. Don't really remember any cool hands, other thenI raise to $7 CO with Jh8h, btn calls (he's pretty tightish, but a decent player, and we've been chatting a bit so i feel i know where he is most of the time)Flop is 10d 9d 6c. I bet $10, he min raises. I call.Turn is a 9s. We both check.River is a Kh. I bet $35 and he folds.Once he checked back the turn on that board, I put him on a very weak range that was just trying to steal it from me on the flop.Overall I ended up about $215.

I know he has a 0 fold to cbet, but I don't think I ever cbet there. Aside from a miracle straight flizzle, you're never losing this hand. Just give'em some rope.

Why can't he just have the under-full every time I flop quads? Poker would be so easy :club:

Played a 16 hour 5-tabling session yesterday with essentially no breaks. One of the running themes was losing KK 90% of the time. Another theme was villains pulling really fancy slowplays. Two different villains that I played HU min-3bet me, flopped a set, and then checked all the way down.

Also... action moves waaay quicker on Merge than other sites... I cannot handle nearly as many tables as I'm used to
Just means you are old and out of shape imo.
