Dirtydutch 8 Posted January 15, 2009 Share Posted January 15, 2009 Had a pretty shittastic 400 hands so far today and only finished - 8 BB. My new monitor is here and it's huge! Gotta set it upI've played about 2,000 in the last two days, which is a ton for me. I started out with a 10BB win, then a 100BB loss, then like 15 little wins short-handed, clawing my way back to down -8BB, about 24h ago. Then I played today, quickly lost about 80BB, and hovered there until I caught some hands, and clawed my way back to more or less that same 8BB loss. There's something about that number.(Actually, I recovered those as well, and am $1 and change up from the starting point, two days ago. Details, details.) Link to post Share on other sites
tuckermitchell 1 Posted January 15, 2009 Share Posted January 15, 2009 Wow, this morning sure feels alot better coming off a +60 BB day instead of the last two -60BB mornings I had. Hope to keep that from happening anymore. Link to post Share on other sites
HighwayStar 8 Posted January 15, 2009 Share Posted January 15, 2009 I think I just lost ~10 BBs cause of a laptop reboot mid hands then got coolered out of another 20 when I started again.. At least the new monitor is sweet Link to post Share on other sites
CobaltBlue 662 Posted January 15, 2009 Share Posted January 15, 2009 Played a more "normal" SHLHE session yesterday. Went -34BB to +100BB over a few hours.Also, is anyone else tilted by stupid slogans and misapplied quotation marks on signs? I saw this one today on a moving truck...We "literally" roll out the red carpet Link to post Share on other sites
HighwayStar 8 Posted January 15, 2009 Share Posted January 15, 2009 Today it seems like every other time the flop has come down paired, when I'm involved in the hand, someone has flopped trips. Link to post Share on other sites

Flushgarden 0 Posted January 15, 2009 Share Posted January 15, 2009 This hand is troubling me. She (her sn leads me to believe she's female) is 50/12/2 over 80 hands, and aside from a few very wonky things like raising utg with 23o she's been pretty loose/passive preflop and solid/aggressive post flop. I think she's calling in the BB here with an extremely wide range including all of the upper part of her range except probably QQ-AA. Over this time she's only 3bet once and has never capped anything. I can see her realizing that TT or JJ is probably good on the turn here and raising, and I can also see her having a hand that is hit hard by that board like A3, A4, 22, 55. I haven't seen her bluff-raise the turn yet, but I wouldn't put it past her. She has raised the turn vs me twice when the turn improved her hand. I have yet to bet/fold the turn vs her but I have done it vs other people at this table while she's been there. Against a lot of villains I would call down here, but I'm thinking I probably should give her credit for something. And since there's a chance that if I am behind I'm drawing dead or very slim and should let this go here, right?

checkymcfold 0 Posted January 16, 2009 Share Posted January 16, 2009 fg, if you don't like folding in that spot, which i think is fine in a relative vacuum, just c/c the turn and river as a general line from OOP in similar spots, imo.specifically on that hand, it's more semibluff-loaded than most, so i'd probably like c/cing the turn and river without a more detailed read.

Does it matter if this is the first session you've played with somebody?as long as you take similar lines with hands that win and hands that you simply want to show down, you can't be exploited. you shouldn't really be mixing things up like that unless your opponents are good, but if they are, then that's the gist of it. you could conceivably work out an absolutely optimal range for each, but meh. just keep it mixed up in such a way that you're able to not lose value with the big hands, as with a river c/r after c/cing the turn in your hand.
