just venting a little bit

[turd ferguson 1]

I didnt ignore it, I said it was a good drawing hand, I was in there to hit a flop, maybe be openended. Im going to take that shot everytime. If you want results for a whole year, you are going to have to wait til I graduate since I promised the p's I would. There is a little concept called pot odds and the odds were in my favor so I went with it.

There are so many things wrong with your mindset it's scary. Not only that, you are stubborn on top of it. I give up. Good luck at the tables.

I don't know which way is the right way on a hand like this. Would you please help me out and tell me what he did wrong and what would you do differently?ThanksRobert

calling a 6x BB raise preflop with ten high maybe? That might not be a good idea, especially when it's 1/6th of your stack. Defending your play by saying ten high isn't a bad hand is probably also not the way to go.

Basically, what he said. I felt like I was taking crazy pills last night when I was trying to explain what was wrong with his play. The guy just has no idea.

No I thought I defended myself quite well, I said that the guy was trying to steal pots the whole night and with 30 in the pot and noone raising I figured thats what he was doing. The whole table knew he was a theif, from 3 hands in the past 2 orbits when he was betting the whole way and was called down with mid pair and he never showed his cards.

Except he had you beat, and even if he was stealing a blind hand is likely better than 10 9 offsuit.

Yea but I was going into the hand, thinking that if I hit the flop I would be ahead of him. I knew he didnt have a big pair by the way he was playing his big pairs.

You're only going to hit that flop once in every three times. You will have top pair even less frequently. That being said, he will lead regardless of what comes. Therefore you will have to fold almost every time. Is this really a situation you want to put 1/6th of your stack in with?

Yea but I was going into the hand, thinking that if I hit the flop I would be ahead of him. I knew he didnt have a big pair by the way he was playing his big pairs.Could have j10? j9? 78? 69? A/10? K/10? Q/10? 77? 88? 1010? I am just curious what hand you put him on?

Just a question: Do any of you guys play live regularly. Because alot of it is about reads. I had been playing with the guy for 2-3 hours and thought I had a good read on him. I went with my read, found out I was right and ended up getting turned.

Yea but I was going into the hand' date=' thinking that if I hit the flop I would be ahead of him. I knew he didnt have a big pair by the way he was playing his big pairs.[/quote']Could have j10? j9? 78? 69? A/10? K/10? Q/10? 77? 88? 1010? I am just curious what hand you put him on?

If he has j9 why would he bet 100 right out into a 5 way pot where he has the nuts on a rainbow flop. If he had a set, the way the guy plays he would have checked and tried to trap someone. I put him on a hand like KQ KJ

[NicksDad1970 0]

I only play live. I enjoy and do better in NL tourneys. But because most of them are at a time I can't be at the casino I end up playing 4/8 l. If you havn't played that live it is REAL crazy.

I play a lot of live poker mainly at commerce and bike. Keep calling raises with 10/9, It's a quick way to make a lot of money

Nice post. How true. I am just saying keep calling raises with 10/9 out of position in 5 way pots, I gurantee it's a quick way to go broke. What are you looking for with 10/9 off in a 5 way pot?

nothing like a good triple post newbie. But yea I thought I had a hand that would be able to beat him by not improving that much. If the flop comes K 10 3 obviously im going to fold. I put him on bigger cards and not a pair. I knew my cards were live and was taking a chance with hitting a flop.

HAHAHAHA. I was thinking more like a QJ8 Rainbow, that would be nice too. On the 10 10 10 flop, I don't know if KQ will pay him off. But on the QJ8 Flop he may get some action!!

That isn't the point. He is going to win the pot every time you don't flop top pair or better.

If you would have read the first post, u would have realized that I said that it wasnt a bad beat. Was just venting a little bit.

tight aggresive is not the only way to play winning poker. Just so you know, a skilled player can lag it up and make millions, just look at Alf13.people are just so damn closed minded. Speez live and if I have a good read I make the call everytime. 5 to 1 on your money plus you appear to have position. Why not?

If you would have read the first post, u would have realized that I said that it wasnt a bad beat. Was just venting a little bit. And for those of you who dont know this is a 2/5 game with a max 200 buy in, where you pay 7 dollars every half hour for a rake. The way to make money in this game is to make hands. You can sit around waiting for premium hands all night, but with the max buy in at 200 and the 2/5 blinds, you can easily get blinded off. You have to pick your spots and take chances. I took my chance and the guy hit a over card on the turn oh well. I didnt get crazy at the table I just said nice hand. There was no way he can fold to a 50 dollar raise when there was already 400 in the pot. Thats why I didnt say it was a bad beat.
