idiotbocs 0 Posted July 19, 2005 Author Share Posted July 19, 2005 Yup.do you think i should 3-bet preflop? Link to post Share on other sites
Smasharoo 0 Posted July 19, 2005 Share Posted July 19, 2005 do you think i should 3-bet preflop?Not with the button in there. If it's just the C/O it's easily worth it to get the BB out and pick up the dead blind money and fold potential overcards. If you have equity three handed, it's marginal at best.Position sucks Obviously you'd three-bet it in position. Link to post Share on other sites
akishore 0 Posted July 19, 2005 Share Posted July 19, 2005 do you ever think that a good number of your opponents play trickier and more aggressively against you after seeing you bet and fold to a raise on the same street?after all, it is the biggest thing that even the most unobservant of players will notice. that was probably the thing in SSHE i agreed with ed miller the most on.just curious, because i would call the flop three-bet and check/fold the turn unimproved rather than fold on the flop.aseem Link to post Share on other sites
KDawgCometh 2 Posted July 19, 2005 Share Posted July 19, 2005 assem, miller isn't the answer to everything, chris played this just fine. Like smash said, the button being in negates us three betting PF. THis is a limit where players will fold for two cold PF even if they ahve put in a bet. Pot isn't big enough, and since its HU we don't have much in the way of implied odds, so folding is smrt Link to post Share on other sites

As far as calling the three bet, I just think its spewage HU and with a smallish/medium pot. We don't have enough in the way of implied odds to call the three bet.

Many pots are HU or just three way at mid limits, so more things have to go into conisderation then the normal TAG way that we play at .5/1-3/6(5/10 is where you do have to start getting a little more tricky). Here the pot really goes into consideration and the fact that we are OOP here, the key here is that chris said that the villian was a good player, so mjany more things have to go into our trane of thought. THe fact is, the villian might not have a K, but could also very well have JJ or 1010, which also beats us. THe key to mid limits is being able to make folds when you are pretty sure that you are beat, and knowing your opposition Link to post Share on other sites

Rocketwadster 0 Posted July 19, 2005 Share Posted July 19, 2005 I don't think I have ever performed a check/raise/fold on the flop before, let alone seen one. That would definately stick with me if I had seen it. That could hurt you later, AND help you...I like it. Both for this hand, and the future hands... 8) Link to post Share on other sites

HU - heads up.2. cold-calling - calling 2 or more bets without having put in any money on that street. 3. 3-bet - in limit hold em, the third bet on a given street. if I bet, and you raise, i could re-raise which would be the third bet - a 3-bet.

greatwhite 0 Posted July 19, 2005 Share Posted July 19, 2005 This may be because I prefer omaha, the game of the nuts, but I don't know about raising on that flop. If they have king 2 they probablly will just call. Plus since everyone is in the pot odds are you are beat. :-) Link to post Share on other sites

Plus since everyone is in the pot odds are you are beat. :-)it could also be that you dont understand much of anything about SH limit HE, or that you have no idea what pot odds are, or that you couldnt grasp from the hand history that the button had already folded, and its gonna take a lot more than K2 for the BB to call 2 cold.

greatwhite 0 Posted July 19, 2005 Share Posted July 19, 2005 Nah, I think it is because I'm not playing 10/20. I'm use to like .50/1 to 3/6. Sorry for posting that stupid response. I'm actually posting between hands. Forgive me. Link to post Share on other sites
idiotbocs 0 Posted July 19, 2005 Author Share Posted July 19, 2005 sometimes i will call a raise and check/fold the turn for metagame purposes but i dont think this is a good time.i check/raise good hands and he knows that. He 3-bet me. i get the **** out. if he were to start 3-betting my check/raises he would be losing a ton of money.one time i like to call about 50% of the time for metagame purposes is when i have something like ATo and autobet a J65 flop. ill call the flop raise sometimes and then check/fold the turn. Often good players will check behind with 78 or something. Link to post Share on other sites
