Expert Play according to the Table Coach
 
so I decided to play some fullring again, its been a while, and I decide to play 2/4 and 3/6 at first to get my LAG phase out of the way

PokerStars 2/4 Hold'em (9 handed) FTR converter on zerodivide.cx

Preflop: bottomset is MP3 with 7[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img], A[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img].
<font color="#666666">1 fold</font>, UTG+1 calls, <font color="#666666">1 fold</font>, MP2 calls, <font color="#CC3333">bottomset raises</font>, <font color="#666666">4 folds</font>, UTG+1 calls, MP2 calls.

it is at this point I realize I isolated a 21/10 and a 9/3 w/ A7s, in MP3 .. to think I make money playing poker

Flop: (7.50 SB) A[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img], 6[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img], J[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(3 players)</font>
UTG+1 checks, <font color="#CC3333">MP2 bets</font>, bottomset calls, UTG+1 folds.

oh yippee passive rock is donking into me

<font color="#CC3333">MP2 bets</font>, <font color="#CC3333">bottomset raises</font>, <font color="#CC3333">MP2 3-bets</font>, bottomset calls.

woohoo a 7, I raise .. oh [censored] rock 3bets

OMG I rule at poker

so I check the HH to see how bad of a suckout it was, and he had 65 [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] and I put in 7BB with the best of it

ok here's another hand

table is loose/passive
first orbit at the table

Hand 1: What was your plan if UI on the turn? The rest of the hand is cool

Hand 2: PF is the only questionable street imo, I think its a reasonable limp given the table conditions

Well - hand one you certainly should not be raising in with that and then you wimp out on the flop by calling.

Hand noumner to you are REAL loose fishy by playing those cards.

Re: Expert Play according to the Table Coach
 
i find it hard to critique a better player playing at levels ive never spent a decent amount of hands playing to understand....

but imo preflop seems pretty bad in both. i limp hand 1 and fold hand 2.... hand 1 is close, hand 2 is just... wrong

postflop is perfect in both hands, maybe that has something to do with why you can play 89s UTG.

SoftcoreRevolt 12-01-2005 12:33 PM

Re: Expert Play according to the Table Coach
 
How is preflop wrong in hand two? Preflop is great. He has a hand with a bit of top pair value, that is suited and connected on a table that is loose and sees few pre flop raises. These are ideal conditions to play mid suited connectors like T9s and 98s in EP, yes you lack position, but knowledge of the the players at the table and how to play the situations that will come up will help to minimize any disadvantages you have.

12-01-2005 01:02 PM

Re: Expert Play according to the Table Coach
 
i def would not limp hand 1. folding is a lot better than limping in this case. i think a raise is in order because a passive rock can be outplayed postflop. a raise is in order on the flop though.

not a good idea to limp in in hand 2 IMO. unless the table is so loose/passive that you expect 5 way limps after you. the table may have been just that. so you can't really say it's WRONG.

I don't like the limp in hand 2. Not during the first orbit, anyway. I would want to get a better feel for what's going on before making a super-marginal limp OOP. After that, it looks fine. What did CO call with? AK? 55?

are you seriously advocating folding A7s preflop after 2 limpers here?

i'm assuming that when you raised you thought they were loose enough to be bad players, and then realized they weren't...

even if they are tightish, don't you think A7s plays well enough here to at least limp and try to keep several people in?

as an aside, my arbitrary cutoff for making these types of value raises is usually A8s for 2 poor limpers. so A7s isn't off the range.

I want everyone limping in behind me at microlimits, but not because I play my A7s mostly for flush value. I just know that whatever they limp with is probably a dog to my hand, so I'm fine with it.

Re: Expert Play according to the Table Coach
 
Hey set, how many hands were you reads on in hand 1? That 9/3 totally shouldn't be in the pot here unless things are quite unconverged.

So if you were planning on folding the turn UI, why call the flop with 3 outs? Whatever he bet with OOP on the flop he'll probably continue with on the turn, winning or otherwise. If you folded UI here you just would have spent an extra SB before folding the best hand.

I fold pf in hand noumner to.

Even under ideal conditions, limping 98s UTG is marginal. I think you underestimate the value of position with these hands. It's very hard to minimize a positional disadvantage against multiple loose passive players.

Re: Expert Play according to the Table Coach
 
so you wouldn't play A7s PF for the top pair value? with two limpers in front of you wouldn't it be likely that you're ahead? does that mean you would check/fold if you dont hit your flush draw on the flop?

i just thought it would be better to raise MP with two limpers because it would drive out the weaker, but stronger A than you (A8 through maybe ATo if passive enough) in which case you'd be buying outs. not only that this raise would set up the flop aggression. am i wrong in thinking this?

[/ QUOTE ]

I'm actually saying that I don't just play for flush value. In most circumstances, I play pretty aggressively if I hit either of my pair outs with A7s. This is of course highly situational, which is exemplified by this hand where I don't hate calling TPMK with our read on Villain.

You're absolutely right that we may have the best hand after two 'typical' limpers in a micro game (note that this is less likely to be true against the limpers specified in this particular hand). And check-folding if I hit a hand weaker than a flush draw (ie, TP hand) is not my normal play. It happens to me occasionally, but not often.

My point is that it's unwise to call suited aces just for flush value. Since flush-over-flush is so rare (I don't know the exact numbers but I'd estimate it happens &lt;15% of the time? Anyone have time for combinatrix?), we usually don't need to worry much if our flush is the nut flush or not. Sure, it's great to be able to play aggressively with the nuts, but T5s is going to make almost as many winning flushes as A7s. Since A7s is a common limp and T5s is usually a mistake, we must be playing for more than just flush value with Axs.

[/ QUOTE ]
This is partially true IMO. If I were raising this hand, I'm usually trying to isolate a looser EP player here, since my hand is a big favorite against his range. So a raise is simultaneously trying to get folds from better, dominating hands and calls from weaker hands that we have an equity edge against.

Note that both of these won't necessarily happen at once, and quite often only one or the other will happen. Generally in low limit games, forcing an opponent make a bad fold is tougher than forcing an opponent to make a bad call. I usually raise weakish hands preflop (say ATo), expecting cold-calls from many hands, only a small fraction of which dominate me. So while it's true that we're trying to fold better hands, IMO it's more important to extract value from worse ones at microlimits. In this particular hand, I don't like a raise because the chances that we're dominated by one of the tight EP limpers is high enough that I don't think that we have the equity to do so. This hand is actually a poor example of a typical microlimit game for me to answer your questions with, because the two limpers have such low VPIPs.

agreed. but i just think it makes this hand a lot easier if you raise. sometimes the headache/stress you avoid postflop by raising is worth the small +EV you're giving up IMO. [img]/images/graemlins/wink.gif[/img]

[/ QUOTE ]

my experience with superweaktight players is that they give up, and switch to check/call/pray mode unless they are superstrong

so that 1SB often buys 2cards, and 8.5/1 with some possibility of being ahead seems like a decent price

Obviously my read was off on this specific hand, and subsequently changed to reflect the newfound info, since WT players don't play 65s, let alone 3bet the turn with bottompair/fd

[/ QUOTE ]

I didn't say it was a slamdunk you need to play this hand, I know you weren't specifically talking to me, but I will defend the limp a little, if its a mistake to limp its a tiny one, I'd estimate if I misjudge the table, I'll get around .45BB back on my .5BB investment, a 0.05BB misstep, which is minimal. Most preflop errors are small in magnitude(hence the don't focus on it too much attitude) where you get in trouble is small errors that you have the opportunity to make very often. So if I limp JTs-98s UTG(10handed) everytime, I get one of those 3hands 1/110, and get one UTG 1/1110 so even if I lose .25BB everytime I limp, its still miniscule overall. I'm comfortable with my postflop play, and look to play hands that have big pot potential whenever I can, these medium suited connectors are those types of hands.

I am so lost on playing this on the button. I really question whether this is simply just -EV to play, not even marginally. Even great post-flop skills on this feels like a leak.

I assume that the bet on the turn = partial bluff that you have a 10 + you slightly improved, beating overcards + everyone is checking to you. Would you fold this if it was raised on either the turn or river?

I assume that the bet on the turn = partial bluff that you have a 10 + you slightly improved, beating overcards + everyone is checking to you. Would you fold this if it was raised on either the turn or river?

Oddly, 53s is one of my top ten money-makers with over 100 plays from the button. For some reason, I have a better feel when to release this hand (or when I am going to flop goot) than I do with JJ [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

Playing this on the button here is hot.

Betting the river when counterfeited is hotter. Since the EV of checking is less than the EV of betting. Getting called by somebody with an Ace is definitely not cool but hot in a meta hot kind of way.

UTG is unknown, BB is fairly lag, but scares a little easy

I might try to c/r the turn, but other than that I like. OTOH, I have FPS these days, so betting out is likely better.

nice hand.
