I was 17 and my parents were out of town so I invite my girlfriend over and....oops, wrong forum! .....I guess I'll tell about my first time at 5/10 instead.
Here are the key hands I played last night, my first time at 5/10 stakes. Comments are welcome.
It's Pacific 5/10. I've watched a few hands and the only things I've noticed are that players are more aggressive than at 2/4 and even though you can still get 5-7 seeing the flop, you get fewer at the river than at 2/4. At the time of my post, none of the players had done anything unusual to give me any reads.
Hand 1:
My very first 5/10 hand and I'm dealt J/images/graemlins/spade.gif J/images/graemlins/diamond.gif in the BB. (I would have moved up sooner if I'd known my hands would improve). /images/graemlins/wink.gif
UTG limps, folded to SB who completes, I raise, both call.
Flop (6 sb): 2/images/graemlins/heart.gif 8/images/graemlins/diamond.gif 9/images/graemlins/club.gif
SB checks, I bet, UTG folds, SB calls.
Turn (4bb): A/images/graemlins/club.gif
SB bets, I call.
River (5.7 bb): Q/images/graemlins/heart.gif
SB bets, I call.
Hand 2:
Two hands later on the button I'm dealt A/images/graemlins/heart.gif 5/images/graemlins/heart.gif
UTG raises, EP1 coldcalls, MP coldcalls, folded to me, I coldcall, SB folds, BB 3-bets, we all call. Five to the flop for 3 sbs each.
Flop (14.8 sb): A/images/graemlins/diamond.gif 4/images/graemlins/diamond.gif 5/images/graemlins/club.gif
BB bets, UTG calls, EP1 folds, MP calls, I raise, they all call. Four to the turn.
Turn (11.4 bb): 7/images/graemlins/spade.gif
Checked to me, I bet, BB calls, UTG folds, MP raises, we both call.
River (17.4 bb): 3/images/graemlins/spade.gif
BB checks, MP bets, I call, BB calls.
Hand 3:
Table now has 8 players. I'm EP1 with A/images/graemlins/diamond.gif Q/images/graemlins/diamond.gif
UTG folds, I raise, EP2 coldcalls, poster folds, BB calls. Three to the flop.
Flop (7.2 sb): 8/images/graemlins/heart.gif 6/images/graemlins/spade.gif 3/images/graemlins/heart.gif
BB checks, I bet, both call.
Turn (5bb): 6/images/graemlins/club.gif
BB checks, I check, EP2 checks.
River (5 bb): 3/images/graemlins/spade.gif

Hand 4:
The table has broken up. Down to 5 players. I'm the button and have A/images/graemlins/diamond.gif 9/images/graemlins/diamond.gif.
Two folds to me, I limp (will 3-bet if raised), SB completes, BB checks.
Flop (3 sb): 6/images/graemlins/diamond.gif J/images/graemlins/diamond.gif 8/images/graemlins/club.gif
SB bets, BB calls, I call.
Turn (2.9 bb): 2/images/graemlins/club.gif
SB bets, BB calls, I call.
River (5.8 bb): A/images/graemlins/spade.gif
SB bets, BB folds, I raise, SB calls.
Hand 5:
Folded to CO-2 who open-raises, folded to me in SB with Q/images/graemlins/heart.gif J/images/graemlins/diamond.gif '
I fold.
Thanks!
