Default Blah

So...I'm busy getting obliterated with my shot at 15/30....

Over the last 3500 hands, AA-TT and AKs are all severe losers. God have mercy on me.

Anyway, this 2/3 blind structure confuses me sometimes.

For example, a semi-loose player limps UTG and it's folded to me in the sb. I have A7o. The BB is also semi-loose, but has no problems folding his BB. You?

So...I'm playing a fine game even though I'm getting destroyed. I'm concentrating very hard to make sure that I'm not playing scared. How's this hand?

I raise UTG+1 with A [img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img]Q [img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img]

folded to sb and bb who both call...both are loose and rather passive for this game (which means rather aggressive in the 2/4 game).

Flop comes: 5 [img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] 8 [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]T [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]

checked to me, I check.

Turn: T [img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img]

sb bets, bb folds, I fold.

I like betting this flop.

Given that you didn't and got an excellent turn card, I really don't like folding. I would call the turn and see what comes on the river.

On the A7o hand from the SB, I like completing and seeing what the flop is.

Good to see that you are playing a lot higher! Best of luck to you in the 15/30.

you should concentrate less on converting it to twoplustwo and more on not playing scared. I dont think you make that flop check in ny
