Two Plus Two Older Archives - 94/61 fish on Party RIGHT NOW

I played with one of those guys tonight. Post the first 2 letters of the name and I'll tell you if I was there or not.

edit: I checked my database. If you're PrepABC on Party, then I can confirm that I was indeed at that table. That maniac was very very strange. He would go from betting and raising any 2 cards the whole way, to switching back to an almost tag-like style. His name was kind of interesting, almost like he was telling us what to do against him. I dunno, maybe I'm just thinking too much. Here are some hand of mine from that session.

Here's one I played with both of you, and I had you guys dominated two ways and still lost. Weak. I thought about raising the river. I knew you didn't have much and didn't need much to call him down, and I thought there was a good enough chance I had him beat, but then I figured you were on a draw and wouldn't have overcalled anyways. Not like it would have mattered, I just would have gotten 3-bet on the river anyways. I'm still a little suprised you overcalled.

And of course the one hand that I left some money on the table. He had sucked out pretty consistently against me so maybe I got scared. This is also the only time I have ever limp-re-raised. I figured I could get the hand 3 way rather than heads up that way, and still get it capped pre-flop, since he was in auto-raise mode at that point.

My strategy the whole time was just pick a hand with any kind of showdown value whatsoever, try to get it heads up if it's a fundamentally weak hand, go to war on the flop if I think I'm best, then calldown. I didn't do half bad that way.
