the question is not why is he playing 30/60 but why the f.uck did you not 3 bet the turn
geormiet
12-21-2005, 05:43 PM
Because i think it's a bad play?

well he either has QT or youre winning right? this looks like a pretty good spot to 3bet, especially with the other guy in there who youre definitley beating.

It's so easy to put me on AK, why would I get checkraised by a worse hand?

But you're right, since the only hand that beats me is QT, it's kinda weak to assume he won't c-r a worse 2 pair.

The way it went down it's definitely possible to be up against a slowplayed set.

You don't think JJ 3 bets pf?

JJ may not 3 bet from BB against early raise. By no means automatic.

it is automatic for him from what i've seen.

I think his brother uses his account at Ladbrokes to play 20/40 and 40/80, that might be it unless he actually said he was Erik.

its easy to put you on AK when you are looking at your cards, but realistically he could be putting you on all kinds of stuff.

I was bored last night and found this cardplayer europe cover story on Erik. I like his colorful sweaters Erik123 (http://www.cardplayer.com/cpeurope/article.php?a_id=204&m_id=10)

From his eyes you can have KJ, KQ, AQ, AT. He'd like to c/r vs all of those.

Also I think Erik is more aggro than you give him credit for.

At first glance i would have not 3 bet it because i would not expect him to be raising A7 here. It seems roughly 50/50 he is win/losing vs your range but goes more bets when behind. However, i think we could throw a lot of weight into that QT would def. raise the flop.

Assuming it's on Stars, I asked him his current age and he responded 27. I believe by all accounts of his DOB, he should be 22 now. His brother is older?

That photo of him with the white hoodie is about as androgenous as it gets. Either that or he should hit the gym and drop the body fat or bulk up........ /images/graemlins/grin.gif /images/graemlins/blush.gif /images/graemlins/shocked.gif

Where does it say you have to be a winning player to play at a particular limit? Can't I lose money playing 30/60 in peace?

After reviewing it, I know I botched up this hand. I initially posted because I was wondering if someone else was playing on erik's account, but there were a couple interesting strategy responses which is good.

I can't stand posts like yours.
