Re: 3bet fold to a cap?
Hmm... usually 2p2ers are more aggressive with flush draws and overcards, right? This definitely looks like KQ or AQ from villain - which will call, but not cap. I can't say I've ever tried this...

Re: thin calldown
If you think villain is severely tilting, check behind on the flop and call the inevitable flop and river bets. This looks a bit over-aggressive to me. (But I play 1/2, so I could be completely...

Re: The Six Max Ladder
I only did a few hands at 0.5/1 before jumping up to 1/2 on Absolute. I've played Party, Absolute, and Stars 1/2, and they're all fairly soft. You have to pay attention to the table texture, but...

Re: session review - pairings
I PM'd our illustrious moderators to ask. We already have 2 stickies, and I think it'd get a bit cluttered, but it doesn't hurt to ask. If not, we can keep bumping for a couple days.

Re: Blind stealing / Valuing cards from Button
This is hugely opponent dependent. Only do these kinds of plays (calling a 3-bet) versus a thinking and/or tricky player. I think you lose way too much value against a typical player by not capping...

Re: Pay off?
I don't know dude. Is this Ax (x<8) without hearts often enough? That's a fairly scary board for villain to bluff at - even this nut. A flop c/r is different than a donkbet, IMO. I think we can...

Re: 4 hands from tonights 348 +.24BB/100 session
Hand 1: Preflop is fine. I just call the flop. You're rarely getting a free card, and you don't have the best hand often enough.
Hand 2: I just call preflop, though you probably have enough...

Peel hoping for what? You're drawing thin to dead here most of the time.

Re: Learning Short Handed-Overcall on river?
Bet the flop because of your pot equity. You only need two callers to make it profitable. I might even cap after the 3-bet, just because it's fun. /images/graemlins/laugh.gif
