Re: Uninteresting but common 5/10 hand
[ QUOTE ]
I'm not saying this to be an ass, but judging from your posts you should not be playing 5/10.

i shouldn't be playing $.50/$1 either

Re: A More Refined Discussion of The Limp-Reraise
I dont really want to protect my limps. The only hands I limp w/ in EP are pocket pairs, and then I want open raises behind me so I can crack big pairs with a set.
The only time I limp reraise,...

Re: PS 5-10 hand not v. a 2+2er - KK
I think just calling the flop (what I would do) and villain puts you on 99 thru AA. If you raise, it's pretty clearly KK or AA. So I think whether to call or fold depends on the player, whether...

Uninteresting but common 5/10 hand
No reads on villain. Just to make sure: check/call or check/fold is the way to go, since if you're called, you gotta shut down, so any bet is basically a bluff. Right? I feel pathetic posting such...

oops
I misread the hand summary. I thought GoG had checkcalled the flop. Still, the smooth call on the flop suggests a big hand (or a drawing hand that could have hit when the 8 fell).

Re: $5/$10 NLHE PS qq vs. Gift of Gab
I fake slowplaying all the time against good players. My guess is GiftofGab had a few outs, and figured he'd represent trip sixes or a full house, and force you to lay down your overpair.

To all the hot shot sarcastic posters...
This came up earlier on the Poker Theory Forum. The reason I picked KK is that it's a better hand against AA than AK. Here's my arguement:
You go all in w/ AA vs KK and you win 80% of the time,...

There's no way you're getting away from this hand, but your cuteness may have cost you money if villain hadn't filled up. When I flop a set into a preflop raiser and there's an ace on board, I like...

First Hand Theoretical Question
First hand of a 1 (or 2, I dont think it changes things) table sit n go. UTG goes all, folded to you in the BB w/ AA. While you think, UTG turns over his cards, showing you KK.
Do you call?

CO would have to be a pretty bad (or tricky) player to limp w/ KK, then flat call a raise out of position before the flop (he still had the button to act after him on the flop). I dont think your...

I think the check raise on the river is a bad play. Second to bottom set w/ a straight on board isn't the hand you want someone coming back over the top of you with after you bet the turn and...

Re: How to beat Spirit Rock
How to beat Spirit Rock?
Ask "Legendary" he just won a 27k pot against him. I think the best way to beat spirit rock is to flop top set when he's got an overpair.

Re: 5/10 small pot vs. TheGiftOfGab
Anyone else limp UTG here with 99? If you raise and get reraised, you gotta fold. If you get multiple callers, you need to hit a set to win, so you basically are raising UTG w/ a small pair.

Re: 5/10 big pot vs. TheGiftOfGab
I think Gab probably had AA, which would explain why he didn't raise the turn or river (he's not really worried about free cards, and he might be beat by a set, so he wins when you bluff, and saves...

You call with AQ let the blinds in and all sorts of other crap hands. I'd say it was a misplayed hand. Maybe horribly misplayed.

The guy who opened raised had AA. The small blind, who reraised and then called all in from the open raiser, had QQ.
I shouldn't have folded though, since a king came on the flop. Next time I...

Re: A little bit about money.
$1000 / 30 = 33BB / hour. Weak. Instead of reading up on tax evasion, I'd suggest reading up on poker. You should be making at least 50BB an hour if you're only 19.

Re: stars 5/10, interesting kk hand

Re: AQ button, 2/4
I think 2/4 (when you can buy in for $400) is significantly different from 1/2. I've played a decent amount of 5/10, and, for the most part, the only difference is you trade one or two fish for one...
