Re: MTT luck? In the gutter.

Actually, I found that I played exceptionally well, and after losing that hand, I cried and said I had played perfect poker for...

MTT luck? In the gutter.

Yeah, so I play for mere dollars in MTTs. That's beside the point. I play them a lot, I spend my time playing them, I get very close to the end. And then I lose. If I am going to lose an 80-20...

Re: Flush/straight hand, amount to bet?

It turned out that he called and mucked. Nothing like Pacific Poker tournaments.

Re: Flopping Middle Pair - What to do ???

GRUNCH ATTEMPT:

Flop: good bet out, I would do the same 4-way. Calling the CR is fine.

Turn: Sigh, this pot is so big it makes me cry to fold AND to stay. It would depend on my read of BB I...

Accuracy of small samples (for opponents)

This may have been addressed at some point before, but I was curious about how well one could assess an opponent based on his stats and a small sample (200+ hands). I know that a small sample size...

Re: Riptide 5K Complete Tourney Summary

I hate how Paradise Poker gives players a timebank that can last more than 1/10 of the level length. The blinds go up so goddamn fast relative to the amount of hands played compared to anywhere else....

Re: Live $50 MTT, final table hand

with everyone else tightening up to reach the money, I say go for it. If you fold here, you're damned pretty hard. And if you win, you stand a good chance of placing top 2.

Re: LO8 Give me a better line

I like KKds a lot.. not a bad pf selection.

As for the flop, I 3-bet this.. this is probably one of the best flops (with two low cards) for KK. Likewise, I bet the turn. I've found that with...

live 1/2 SH hand, top pair turned flush

So I'm playing at a dog track, with very loose (or sometimes very tight, but nevertheless very bad) games, and the table loses a few players so we're down to 6 for a little bit.

Re: Flush played weak?

Grunch:

maybe it's because I'm not used to party .5/1, but I would avoid the flop raise. 1) you don't have the equity to pump and 2) I doubt in a loose game someone is gonna respect your free...

Re: Party 1/2 2 AK hands turn fold?

I think it's only worth fighting with these types of hands if you have someone deliberately targetting you (who is willing to fold), and you have more balls than they do. In any other situation,...

Re: KQs.......standard?

Yeah, definitely needs to be played more aggressively on the flop. You need to make BB/UTG pay for their [censored].

Re: Complete madness.

It looks like you didn't end up doing too bad (-$5 net), but in my experience, I fold to the $8 on the flop. Maybe that's too passive a play, but: 1) I have an unprotected nut low. 2) There were...
