My name is PokerBob and I am not a man
 

Canterbury 30/60 9 handed
SB here is Vehn. I have never played with him before, but apparently he is the gretatest limit hold'em player on earth. I open with AKo in the CO. button fold. Vehn 3-bets, BB folds, I make it 4, Vehn calls.

Flop: AJ2r

Vehn checks, I bet, he raises, I call.

Turn: 5 rainbow complete

Vehn checks, I check.

River: 4

Vehn bets, I think for an instant about raising, but then relaize I am not disciplined enough to fold to a 3-bet and call. meh?

hahahahahaha could you slobber on his knob any more you fat pathetic piece of crap? Who the eff cares how much he supposedly won playing heads up? Only you and your wannabe "friends" on THE CREW hahahahaha. Why don't you tell me about a kind of poker I'm not experienced in, like flying all the effing way to Paris and bust out on the bubble and then post a 5 page sob story about it online to your Advanced RGP Whiner "friends"? Believe it or not 30/60 is a HUGE LIMIT when you DROP 3 DIMES IN 2 HOURS be being a TOTAL EFFING RETARD in it by LIMP RERAISING with 97o because you BLEW A FUSE because the guy to your left (me) doesn't chop. I'M VERY SURE ALL OF THE WORLD CLASS POKER PLAYERS HABITUALLY DROP 3K AT 30/60 LIMIT HOLDEM IN SHORT ORDER BY BEING MORONS. As usual you have no clue at all what its like to play REAL WINNING CASH GAME POKER that you some how have equated with "nit grinding". That kind of attitude won't get you any friends here but then again you don't need friends to unpaid spam for ultimate clueless bet, which is about the most pathetic thing I've ever heard of.

Here is my recommendation to you ya little dickhead twerp: STFU, go back to your unpaid shill job of getting it up the rump from Dutch "Pokerspot" Boyd at THE CREW CAVE, and get the eff off my board with your hamburger/CREWJUICE guzzling little weasel face forever.


p.s. I never see you at canterbury. Why is that? Bust out? Well if you'd charge $25 for a blow job instead of giving it away for free you'd get a buy in to 30/60 in most likely just a few hours. Of couse you'd have to lose some weight and some of your chins, and you'll have to learn how not to blab out your bad beat and "pro" name dropping stories every 15 seconds in order to get to some quality slurping in, but you can do it. I have faith in you. Hugs.

A hand Vehn got to play tonight at Canterbury, the action is really unbelievable:

Vehn opens in LP, blinds call. Checked to him on the flop, he bets, one of the blinds c/r, Vehn 3 bets, blind calls. Turn blind checks, Vehn bets, blind c/r, Vehn 3, blind 4, Vehn 5, blind calls. River blind checks, Vehn bets, blind raises Vehn 3 bets, blind folds.

I was in this game, and if blind is who i think it was, this fold has more to do with who blind is than who Vehn is.

bet the turn, call down a C/R

Re: My name is PokerBob and I am not a man
 

Play it fast. Big time FPS here. Plus, 3-betting the flop disguises your hand more IMO.

Re: My name is PokerBob and I am not a man
 

I've noticed a trend in your posts lately where you seem to be suffering both from extreme weakness and a desire to FPS. It looks a combination of both here. What were you thinking on the flop? Just 3-bet.

Re: My name is PokerBob and I am not a man
 

I have not played in this game in at least 6 months. I've been pushed around by worm33 and CMO. I know your know your pain.

I was thinking, he has AJ. I also was thinking that if he had a worse ace, he plays well enough to get away from it if I show too much aggression. I also was thinking that I am a pussy.

Re: My name is PokerBob and I am not a man
 

You should not be playing 30/60 if you are checking this turn. Either call check raise on flop and raise turn or just threebet flop. bottomline you have AK and you flopped an ACE... bets are going in on every street. Your turn check and then raising river is rediculous and hopefully a joke....

Dont make such huge blanket statements. Checking the turn here can be correct sometimes.

Re: My name is PokerBob and I am not a man
 

Bike.. i think checking could be correct in a higher limit game, but i just don't see how it could be at the 30 at canterbury

It doesn't matter...a hand vs vehn is a hand vs vehn. he's a very tough player and the limit may as well be 100/200.

he got spooked by vehn and knowing who he is. no big deal, although i agree the turn needs to be bet. personally i 3-bet the flop because great players can drop a smaller ace to the smmoth call/raise move.

Re: My name is PokerBob and I am not a man
 

i dont mind a check here at all. vehn isnt an idiot. you're only getting money from AQ here and hes checkraising you with everything else.

how many hands does pokerbob 4bet preflop with and call a c/r on the flop??????? a few. AA, JJ, AK, possibly AQs. How many hands does Vehn 3bet preflop, call a 4bet, and c/r the flop? A lot, but in that range is included AK, AQ, AA-99, He doesn't even c/r the flop with most of these.

I don't think Vehn knows who i am or anything about my play, but i hadn't shown down any garbage vs. him (I did play a 99 hand from the BB vs. him kinda weakly, but other than that no altercations). If I bet this turn and get c/r'ed, i am likely toasted but unable to fold. I dunno. I play bad. He shows A7s and MHIG.

Yeah I guess. I tend to bet top pair top kicker until someone tells me it is no good. At that point I call down.

I don't know if this is a good or bad way to play, but it seems reasonable to me.

Playing TPTK strongly until someone gives you reason to pause is generally a good play at a small stakes game.

But this isn't quite a small stakes game.

And it's not a general hand. It's very specifically against Vehn.

Your default play is certainly reasonable. Your question, "Do people on this forum always assume that your opponents can see your cards?" is not reasonable if you actually thought we make this assumption. If you're just being snarky, that's fine: it just gives me another opportunity to use the word "snarky."

Re: results
 

I think you're being a little too hard on yourself. Checking isn't terrible, especially against a good player who's likely to either raise you with a better hand or fold hands with few outs. Since your top pair can't easily be counterfeited, I think checking is Ok.

In the meantime, I can't figure out who any of you guys are. I think I know who worm is, but (luckily) haven't seen him in the games since I got here. One thing's for sure, Canterbury is one of the best run card rooms I've ever played at!

so, you like moved TO the midwest? [img]/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img]

Re: My name is PokerBob and I am not a man
 

Can anyone tell me who Vehn is? If he is a member of the "crew" it can't be Brett Jungblutt. I played with him and he seemed pretty bad.

i do not beleive Vehn is a member of any crew. he strikes me as a lone wolf kind of guy.

Re: My name is PokerBob and I am not a man
 

Yeh i dont like it, vehn 3 bets more from the SB then anybody I have ever played with, although u can not possibly know this. He also isnt one to fold kk or qq or kj here if u 3 bet the flop. If he has 2 10's then yeh hands prolly over. I would just play it fast. let him try to outplay you.

Re: My name is PokerBob and I am not a man
 

3 bet it. Your really a girl? That is sexy than...

Re: My name is PokerBob and I am not a man
 

To those recommending a flop 3-bet, what hands do you think Vehn is going to call down with that you beat? I don't see the reason for it...

Wow.

I wouldn't think three betting the flop is a must, but I consider the turn check a much bigger mistake. If he doesn't know you, I would think he can put you on an ace on the flop if you three bet him. His turn check is pretty weak.

Re: My name is PokerBob and I am not a man
 

What was Vehn's hand? His turn check is perhaps more peculiar than your turn check.

BTW, "peculiar" is this sense doesn't mean bad. It might well have been fiendishly good.

Re: My name is PokerBob and I am not a man
 

Do you recall the board?

Re: My name is PokerBob and I am not a man
 

I remember when PokerBob was posting his "I am not a man" posts in Small Stakes.

You rock, Bob. I hope your year of adventure is going well.
